The Lowdown

Righto, grab a coffee and settle in. Rusty here. We’re lookin’ at a pretty grim stretch ahead for Jacaraipe, to be honest. The next week and a half is mostly a write-off, with a couple of glimmers way down the track. The water temp is about average for the time of year, nothin’ to write home about.

First up, the outlook from Saturday the 1st to the 9th of August is just dust. Onshore junk, tiny windswell, and generally poor conditions. The only real highlight comes on Tuesday the 11th – that’s the standout. Tuesday morning at Jacaraipe should see a clean, long-period groundswell setting in from the SSE, with a very long period of 15 seconds and solid wave energy (699). Swell height is around 4 ft, and with a light cross-offshore breeze from the SSW, that sandbar should be organised and rippable. That’s the one to circle on the calendar.

The following morning, Wednesday the 12th, also offers a decent window. Clean again with a light offshore from the N, but the swell’s a bit smaller at 3 ft, period dropping to 13 seconds, and the energy is a little lower (418). Still a good option for a morning session if you missed Tuesday.

The rest of the second week is a mix of onshore winds, small swell, and messy conditions. The big SSE groundswell pulses on the 10th and 14th get spoiled by cross-onshore winds and choppy water, so they’re not worth paddlin’ out for. Overall, a long, quiet fortnight. It’s a bit of a waiting game, but that Tuesday the 11th should be a beauty.

Rusty.

Information about the Jacaraipe Surf forecast

The above surf forecast table for Jacaraipe provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Jacaraipe can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Jacaraipe 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 (Jacaraipe) 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 Jacaraipe 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.
