Alright, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's on the table for Aracaju over the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, mate, it's a bit of a flat spell for Aracaju. The whole 16-day window is looking pretty grim, with no standout days at all. Every single forecast slot is marked as poor surf conditions, so I can't recommend any of it for a proper paddle. The energy is mostly weak, with combined swell energy values bouncing between 23 and 408, but it's never accompanied by decent, clean conditions. There's a nasty little gap of nothing worthwhile from now until the end of the forecast.
The only spot in the mix is Aracaju itself. It's a beginner-friendly, fairly consistent break, but it's exposed to the swell and the wind is almost always onshore or cross-onshore, which kills any chance of a clean face. The water temperature is sitting at 80°F, which is pretty much normal for this time of year.
On Sunday the 5th of July, we've got a 3ft swell from the ESE with a period of 8 seconds, but it's onshore E wind at 6 mph early, and then SE at 9 mph in the arvo. The wave energy is weak to moderate (178). It's just not happening.
The rest of the week is a washout. Tiny swells, often between 1ft and 3ft, and the wind is always onshore or cross-onshore. By Tuesday the 7th of July, the swell drops to 1ft with a long 13-second period from the SSE, but the cross-onshore wind and low energy (78) mean it's just small and messy.
Even when the swell gets a bit of a bump on the 19th of July (Sunday) – a 3ft SE swell with a 13-second period and a combined energy of 408 – the wind is onshore. It's a bit more energy, but it's still poor quality.
Look, between the 5th and the 20th of July, there's not a single moment where the stars align. The swell direction is mostly from the SE or SSE, which is the optimum for Aracaju, but the wind is always against it. This setup is more interesting for a kite surfer than a paddle surfer, given the persistent onshore winds and small, choppy surf.
No standouts here. The forecast can always change, but for now, it's a long wait.
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.
