Right, folks, Rusty here. Let’s see what we’ve got on the cards for Jacaraipe. The next couple of weeks are a mixed bag, but there are a few windows of opportunity if you pick your days.

The main event this week looks to be a clean, glassy morning on Saturday, July 4th. We’ve got a 4ft east swell with a period of 9 seconds, and the wind is nil. Absolutely glassed off with calm conditions. The combined energy is moderate at 259. It’s a sandbar break, fairly consistent, and a beginner-friendly wave. The water temp is, by the look of things, about average for this time of year. This is the standout session of the early period – get in the water Saturday morning.

The next real highlight comes on Thursday, July 9th. Another glassy morning, with a light SSW breeze at just 3 mph. The swell is 4ft from the southeast, with a longer 11-second period, and a combined energy of 340. That longer period should give it a bit more power and shape. Again, the strand is clean, a proper glass-off. That’s your second best call for the week.

Sunday, July 12th, also offers up a clean morning with light SW winds (3 mph) and a 4ft southeast swell (12-second period, combined energy 407). A solid, clean option.

After that, things get ordinary through the middle of the week. There will be gaps of a few days with no real recommendations – Monday, July 13th, through Thursday, July 16th, is mostly poor surf, onshore junk, or just too small.

Then we get a big one flagged for Friday, July 17th. The morning shows a clean 7ft swell from the SSE, but with a short period of 7 seconds. Combined energy is a strong 461. The note says the swell might be too big for this spot. For the experienced lot, there could be some big, lumpy beach break walls, but it’s far from a sure thing for the average punter. It’s a powerful, short-period groundswell, which can make for hard-to-read peaks. Look, 7ft is expert territory.

After that, the final weekend (July 18th and 19th) is all rain, chop, and onshore wind. A total write-off. Not much to get excited about beyond the first week and a half.

Stay safe out there. This is Rusty signing off.

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.
