The Lowdown
Alright mates, Rusty here. Let’s keep it real – it’s a flat, frustrating run ahead for Aracaju (Brazil). Over the full 16-day window, there’s barely a ripple worth surfing. The pattern is small, wind-chopped and mostly onshore. No standout sessions here.
From Monday the 10th through to Friday the 22nd of August, it’s a solid 12-day gap with nothing surfable. Winds are cross-on or onshore from the SE and E, blowing 9 to 16 mph, keeping the surface messy. Wave heights stay between 2 ft and 5 ft, with short periods of 6 to 7 seconds – just weak, disorganised windswell with no punch. Combined energy reads weak to moderate, from the 90s up into the mid-hundreds, but consistently poor.
The only tiny glimmer is Saturday the 22nd of August morning. Swell picks up from the SSE with a very long period of 17 seconds, and combined energy climbs to 951 – strong. But the swell is only 4 ft, and wind is cross-shore from the NE at 13 mph. It’s listed as marginal with cross-chop. Could be long lines in the water, but the wind kills the quality. For a break that’s open to the S, that direction suits it, but the rest of the forecast around that morning is just as rough.
Truth is, these blank runs happen more often than not here. If the area had more consistent days, the outlook would have some hope, but this forecast gives you nothing clean. Keep an eye on that Saturday morning, but don’t get your hopes up.
Rusty.

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.
