Alright, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what Aracaju’s got cookin’.

Straight up, I gotta be honest with you – this stretch is lookin’ pretty flat and rough for most of the next two and a half weeks. We’ve got a solid block of poor conditions from now all the way through to the morning of Friday, July 17th. That’s a proper dry spell. The swell is tiny, mostly around 1.0 ft to 3 ft, coming from the southeast and south-southeast with a mix of short and mid-period energy, but the wind is just constantly on it or cross-on, making a mess of things. The combined swell energy barely cracks triple digits a lot of the time, so it’s weak to moderate at best – not enough punch to overcome the chop.

The first real glimmer of hope doesn’t show up until Friday the 17th in the morning. That morning we get a rare moment of glassy conditions, with the wind dropping to zero. The swell is still tiny, only about 1 ft from the SSE, and it’s a bit weak, but for a beginner-friendly spot like Aracaju, that flat, clean surface is actually your best chance to get a few grovelly rides when it’s otherwise dead. The description says “surfable waves but very ordinary conditions,” which feels about right – it’s not gonna blow your mind, but it’s the only window where you don’t have the wind ruining it.

After that, it’s back into the doldrums. The following days stay small, with the wind picking back up onshore and cross-onshore, and the swell staying in the 1.0 ft to 2 ft range through to the end of the outlook on Monday the 20th.

Honestly, nothing here is a standout. If you’re desperate, that Friday morning is the pick of a very average bunch, but don’t expect much more than a slide on a longboard or a foamie. The water temp is about average for the time of year, nothing wild to report there. For a beach setup like Aracaju, a blank run like this is actually pretty normal – sometimes the ocean just pulls the plug for a while.

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.
