Alright, Rusty here. Let’s break down what Jacaraipe has in store for the next couple of weeks. It’s a slow burner, but there are some real sweet spots if you know when to paddle out.
The first few days are pretty poor. Sunday the 5th and Monday the 6th are a mess – choppy cross-shore winds and weak, short-period swell. Don’t bother. Water temp is about 75°, pretty normal for July.
Now, Tuesday the 7th morning is a good one. Clean conditions, light north cross-offshore wind, and a 4ft swell from the SSE with a 11-second period – that’s groundswell with some grunt. The wave energy is moderate (567), so it’s got enough push for a fun session. This sandbar can get crowded sometimes, but it’s fairly consistent, so get out early.
Friday the 10th morning is another clean window. Same light north wind, with a 3ft ESE swell running a long 14-second period. That’s the kind of swell that lines up nicely. Combined energy is moderate at 516.
Saturday the 11th morning is a glass-off – no wind, 3ft SE swell at 13 seconds. That’s the dream. The surface will be like a mirror, and the waves will have some shape. Combined energy is moderate at 402.
Tuesday the 14th morning brings a change – a 6ft south swell with a short 6-second period, but with a clean offshore northwest wind. It’ll have some punch, but it’s windswell, so expect some lumpiness. Moderate energy at 280.
Now, Thursday the 16th morning is for the big dogs. Swell hits 6ft from the SSE with a very long 14-second period. The combined energy is a massive 1500 – that’s serious power. The wind is light and cross-shore, so it’s not perfect, but for experts only at that size. Long period swells like this can break straight on beach breaks, so keep that in mind.
Saturday the 18th morning is another clean session: 5ft from the SE, 12-second period, light north cross-offshore wind, and combined energy at 524. Solid, clean, and good shape.
Monday the 20th morning finishes strong with a clean 5ft easterly swell, but the period drops to 8 seconds, so it’ll be softer. Still fun under light offshore winds.
The standout sessions are Tuesday 7th morning, Friday 10th morning, and Saturday 11th morning – cleanest, best shaped, and most user-friendly. The big stuff later is for the brave.
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.
