The Lowdown

Alright, Rusty here again, this time in feet and Fahrenheit.

Let’s be straight with you – this forecast for Jacaraipe is a bit of a slow burner. The first week is mostly flat or messy, with cross-shore winds and weak energy. You’ll be waiting for the good stuff.

The first chance is Friday morning, July 24th. Swell is a tiny 4ft from the east, but the wind is dead calm, glassy. The wave energy is moderate (153) and the period is a short 8 seconds, so it’s a bit peaky, but for a beginner-friendly sandbar like this, it’s the cleanest you’ll see for a few days. Worth a paddle if you’re keen.

Saturday morning, July 25th is even smaller at 3ft, also glassy, but the energy is weak (92). It’s surfable, but very ordinary.

Then the forecast goes quiet. The next real standout is Monday morning, August 3rd. This is over a week away, so treat it as promising but not locked in. We’ve got a 3ft east swell, glassy conditions with a light breeze, and a solid 244 energy reading. The period is still 8 seconds, so it’s a wind swell, but the clean conditions will make it fun. For a spot that’s been so quiet, this is the one to aim for.

Tuesday morning, August 4th is another option with 4ft from the east and glassy conditions, but the energy (197) is lower and the period is 7 seconds. It’s surfable, but not as good as Monday.

So, the bottom line: you’ve got a clean but small window on the 24th and 25th, then a long gap until that promising Monday on August 3rd. Go for the glassy days, and keep an eye on that long-range Monday.

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.
