Right, gather ‘round. Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what the ocean’s got cookin’ for us in the Aracaju region.

Truth be told, it’s a bit of a flat spell ahead. Gonna be a real struggle to find anything decent for paddle surfing. The entire 16-day window is pretty much a write-off for proper waves. The first little blip of energy we see is on Wednesday the 8th of July, but it’s barely a whisper.

We get a tiny 2ft swell from the south, with a period of 12 seconds, giving a combined wave energy of 216 (moderate energy). Early morning, the wind is light from the east at 3 mph, which is actually slight and clean. But the wave comment says it all – marginal. By afternoon, the wind picks up and shifts, making it poor. It's just not enough to get excited about.

From there, it’s a long, dry stretch. From Thursday the 9th right through to Wednesday the 22nd of July, every single session is flagged as poor surf conditions. The swell hangs around 1ft to 3ft, but the wind is always onshore or cross-onshore, sometimes a bit cross, but never truly favorable. The period is mostly between 11 and 13 seconds, so there’s some energy there, but the wind just chops it all to bits. The water temp is sitting about average for this time of year.

Honestly, Aracaju itself is a beginner-friendly, fairly consistent spot that’s exposed to SW swells. But with these onshore winds and small, weak swells, it’s not looking good for anyone. A spot that’s usually fairly consistent is having a rare blank run. That’s just the nature of the area sometimes – forecasts can be a bit more optimistic, but right now, there’s nothing to recommend.

The only real call I can make is that if you’re desperate, the morning of Wednesday the 8th of July had the cleanest wind. But you’d be surfing a 2ft wave that’s barely breaking. Later on, around Friday the 17th and Saturday the 18th of July, the swell bumps up a tiny bit to 3ft, but the wind is straight onshore at 12 mph. That’s a choppy mess, more suited to a kite than a surfboard.

Hang in there. It’s grim, but it won’t stay this way forever.

Information about the Aracaju Surf forecast

The above surf forecast table for Aracaju provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Aracaju can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Aracaju surf forecast is unique since it includes wave energy (power) that defines the real feel of the surf rather than just the height or the period. If you surf the same spot (Aracaju) regularly then make a mental note of the wave energy from the surf forecast table each time you go. Very soon you may start to choose your surf days based on the wave energy alone combined with our forecast of favourable offshore wind conditions. Our star ratings will help here and of course you will also find the usual wave height and period predictions on our surf forecasts as well as a full break down of the swell components under our advanced users option (to reveal that, click the little Einstein character under the tide times).

Further information to help with frequently asked questions about our surf forecast for Aracaju may be found under the help tab on the top menu and also by moving your mouse over the question marks on the surf forecast table itself. Please always bear in mind that the forecast is for near-shore open water and local factors at each surf break influence the actual breaking wave height, such as the beach / reef profile, water depths offshore and shelter.

Aracaju is 9 km (6 miles) from the city of Barra dos Coqueiros. If you plan a holiday in Sergipe, look for hotels and other accommodation in Barra dos Coqueiros. Barra dos Coqueiros has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
