The Lowdown
Alright crew, Rusty here. Let's break down what Jardim Atlantico is doing for the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, it's a pretty grim run. The big picture is a whole lot of onshore wind ruining the swell that's trying to show up. We've got a few windows, but they're small and far apart.
The first real chance is a quick one. Tuesday morning, the 8th of September, the wind goes glassy, dead calm. There's a tiny 2ft east swell, but it's clean. The water is about normal for the season. That's your best bet for the first week. After that, the wind swings onshore and stays there, making a mess of things. The swell bumps up to 4ft to 4ft from the east towards the 11th, but the cross-onshore wind just chops it all up. Not worth it.
Then we hit a long, dry spell. The whole second week, from the 15th of September all the way through the 23rd, it's the same story. More swell, some days hitting 4ft to 4ft, but the wind is constantly onshore or cross-onshore. It's a tough stretch.
The only real standout, and it's a small one, is Monday morning the 21st of September. The wind goes glassy again, dead calm. We'll have a 3ft swell from the east. The period is short at 8 seconds, so it won't have much push, but with the wind being glassy, it'll be the cleanest waves you'll see in the whole forecast. The size is fine for beginners, and crowds are *sometimes* a thing here. For a quick, clean paddle on a small day, that's your only play.
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.
