Table - best surf conditions forecast for Jardim Atlantico over the next 16 days.
Hey, Rusty here. Let’s talk about Jardim Atlantico.
First thing – the water’s sitting at 79°, right around average for this time of year. Now, the next couple of weeks are mostly a write-off. From now right through to the middle of July, you’re looking at tiny, messy waves and constant “poor surf conditions” – basically nothing worth paddling out for. There’s a brief moment on Tuesday morning July 14 where the wind goes glassy and a little windswell shows up, about 2 ft from ENE with a short period of 5 seconds, but it’s weak and ordinary. That’s the only flicker in an otherwise flat, choppy stretch.
The real action doesn’t show until the third week. Hold out for Tuesday morning July 21 – that’s when things finally get interesting. We’ve got a clean 5 ft swell from the east, period 8 seconds, and a light cross-off wind from SSW. Combined wave energy sits at 322 (moderate). It’s not huge, but the conditions are promising and the break faces ESE, which lines up nicely with the swell direction.
Then Wednesday morning July 22 is the standout. Glassy conditions, light SSW air, and a solid 5 ft east swell with the same 8-second period. Energy jumps to 706 – strong stuff. The water stays clean, the waves should have some push, and because it’s a beginner-friendly spot, it’ll be manageable for most. Expect good shape, longer sets, and a clean surface. Crowds are possible now and then, but with this kind of quality over a week away, it’s worth marking the calendar.
After that, the swell drops back down and the onshore winds return, so grab that Wednesday morning window if you can.
Stay stoked.
– Rusty

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.
Jardim Atlantico is 9 km (6 miles) from the city of Ilheus. If you plan a holiday in Bahia - Sul, look for hotels and other accommodation in Ilheus. Ilheus has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
