The Lowdown
Alright, let’s get into it. Looking at the next 16 days for Jacaraipe, it’s a bit of a tough one. The wind is a real problem for most of it, and it’s going to ruin the quality. The one clear standout is Monday morning, the 27th of July. The wind is glassy, dead calm, and the water is about 74°, which is normal for this time of year. The combined swell energy is moderate (203). You’re looking at a 3ft SSE swell with a 9-second period. It’s clean and it’s the best you’re going to get. It’s a beginner-friendly sandbar, so it’s a good one for a fun session.
After that, the wind goes onshore or cross-off, and it’s downhill from there. The swell hangs around, but it’s choppy and blown out. Nothing else really screams "get in the water." The combined energy gets up to 205 on the afternoon of the 4th of August (moderate), but the wind is a fresh cross-onshore, making it lumpy. Not worth it.
The second week is more of the same. The 8th of August has a 2ft S swell with a 15-second period, a very long period groundswell, and the combined energy is strong (264). But the wind is cross-shore, and the swell is tiny. Jacaraipe is a sandbar, and long period swells can be a bit too straight for that setup. It’s not a good match.
Honestly, if you don’t get out on Monday morning, there’s a long gap of poor conditions. The afternoon of the 10th of August might have a bit of size (4ft ENE), but the wind is a mess again. For this area, a run of bad conditions is pretty normal. The forecasts can change, but as it sits, it’s a pretty ordinary outlook.

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.
