The Lowdown
Alright, let’s talk turkey. Rusty here, and I've got to be straight with you: the next couple weeks at Jardim Atlantico are looking bleak. We're staring down the barrel of a lot of poor conditions, no two ways about it. The first week is basically a write-off, with tiny swells, choppy cross-onshore winds, and no energy whatsoever. You might see a glimmer of something around the 10th or 11th when the swell pushes up to 1-1.3m, but it's all messy, short-period stuff and the wind is going to keep it raggedy. Water temps are around 79°, which is about 2° warmer than average, so it's comfortable but nothing special.
We finally get a faint pulse of hope on the 12th, but even that is labeled as "marginal" with the tide playing games. The real highlight comes on the morning of the 16th: a glassy dawn with 1.2m of ENE swell. It's the only time we see that word "glass" in the whole forecast. It's not going to be epic, but for that one window, you could get some clean, if not super powerful, waves. After that, it's back to the grind, with mostly onshore winds and fading energy.
It's a tough stretch for sure. If you're a beginner, that glassy morning on the 16th is your chance to get out in clean, small waves. But for everyone else, it might be time to find a new hobby for a couple of weeks. The ocean just isn't giving us anything to work with.
Rusty out.

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