The Lowdown
Alright, grab a coffee and listen up, it's Rusty. This is a look at Jardim Atlantico, and I gotta be straight with you—it's a lean couple of weeks. We've got a few periods where the ocean might be worth a paddle, but it's more about picking the right hour than the right day.
Right out of the gate, Monday morning, the 7th of September, is the best we've got on offer. It's small, with waves around 3 ft out of the ENE, but here's the catch—it's glassy. The wind is light from the East at 3 mph, and that's making for a clean, smooth surface. The combined swell energy is weak (125), so it's not packing any punch, but for a beginner spot like this, that's fine. The water temp is about average for the time of year, nothing unusual there. It's a small window though; by Monday afternoon, the wind swings onshore and it's straight back to messy.
The rest of the first week and into the second is a real struggle. From Monday afternoon all the way through to Sunday the 20th, there's a solid stretch of poor surf conditions. The wind stays mostly cross-onshore or onshore, and the swell is small and short-period. The combined energy does bump up into the moderate range (like 242 on the 10th), but it's all wind-affected chop. It's not worth your time unless you're just desperate for a float.
We do get a tiny flicker of hope on Sunday the 20th of September, in the morning. The swell is 4 ft from the East, with a period of 7 seconds, and the combined energy is moderate (215). The wind is a light cross-onshore at 6 mph, so it's not perfect, but it's a "marginal" call. It's the closest thing to a surfable day in that second week, but don't expect much. The break is described as fairly consistent, which is a positive, but with this forecast, it's going to be a lot of waiting for the one good set.
Look, for a beginner-friendly, exposed beach setup, the conditions are just not aligning. The wind is your enemy for most of this forecast. A lot of these days, with the onshore wind and moderate swell, it's going to look more interesting for a kite surfer than a paddle surfer. Don't get your hopes up for a classic session. The best you'll do is that glassy Monday morning.
That's it from me. Stick with it, the forecasts can always change.

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.
