The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's on the menu for Aracaju over the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, it's a pretty grim stretch of days ahead. The first week or so is a write-off. From Monday the 27th right through to the start of August, the surf is poor. The wind is mostly onshore or cross-onshore, and the swell is small, short-period slop, with wave energy barely getting into the triple digits. It's not worth paddling out for.
We do see a bit of a lift in height around the 2nd of August, with swell pushing 5ft, but the wind is still howling out of the SE at 15 mph, making it a choppy, blown-out mess. The combined energy does jump up to moderate (312), but conditions are just nasty. For a beach break like Aracaju, this setup looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing.
The only real glimmer of hope comes on Tuesday, the 4th of August. The morning session is the standout. The wind drops to a glassy 3 mph from the ENE, and the swell is a solid 5ft from the SE at a period of 8 seconds. The combined energy is strong (332) and the forecast actually says "expect good surf conditions." It's a beginner-friendly break, but it's fairly consistent and will be clean. Aracaju (Brazil) is a big, exposed beach, so with that size, it's a fun, manageable wave for a wide range of surfers. The water is warm at 79°, which is about average for this time of year. Be aware that crowds are sometimes a possibility here.
After that brief window, it's back to poor conditions for the rest of the week. The forecast is a bit of a long-range promise, so keep an eye on it, but as it stands, the 4th of August morning is your best and only real shot.
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.
