The Lowdown

G’day, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you—this stretch ahead is a flat, frustrating run. For the next couple of weeks, Jardim Atlantico is just not showing us anything that’ll get the heart rate up. We’ve got a solid block of days with no real surf to speak of, so if you’re keen, don’t hold your breath. The good news? The water’s sitting at 79°, which is nearly 2° warmer than usual for this time of year—that’s a nice little bonus if you do decide to paddle out for a splash, even if the waves aren’t cooperating.

Looking at the first week, it’s a whole lot of nothing. From Wednesday the 9th through to Monday the 21st of September, we’re dealing with weak, short-period windswell—mostly around 3ft to 4ft—but the period is stuck down at 7 or 8 seconds. That’s just mush. The energy readings are mostly in the 100s and 200s, which is weak to moderate at best. The wind’s mostly cross-onshore or onshore, which is going to chop up whatever’s out there. Sure, there are a few lighter morning windows with an easterly breeze, but the waves are so gutless it’s not worth the paddle. For a beginner-friendly spot, this is just a flat, grovelly mess.

Now, there’s a tiny blip on Tuesday the 22nd morning—swell bumps to 5ft with a bit more energy (295), but the period is still a dismal 6 seconds. That’s just wind chop, not a wave. Not worth getting excited about.

Here’s where it gets interesting. Around Wednesday the 23rd of September, things start to shift. The swell drops a little to 4ft, but the period jumps way up to 12 seconds, and the energy kicks up to 464. That’s a real groundswell, folks. The direction’s still east, which is fine for this spot, but it’s the first proper sign of life we’ve seen. The wind’s cross-on from the southeast, but it’s light. This is the standout of the whole run—not massive, but it’s got some push to it. It’s still not breaking clean, but it’s the only time you’ll feel some real swell under you. Thursday the 24th morning holds a bit of that longer-period energy (11 seconds, 246), but it’s fading.

So, look—if you’ve got a flexible schedule, that Wednesday the 23rd is your window. It’s not going to be epic, but it’s the closest thing to a proper surf we’re going to get in this 16-day stretch. Otherwise, this is a classic blank run for the area—it happens, and it won’t stay poor forever. The forecasts can always change, but right now, I’d keep the board in the car and the wax in your pocket.

Stay patient. 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.
