The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s cooking for Jardim Atlantico over the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, it’s a pretty grim stretch for the most part. We’re looking at a long, dry spell with barely a ripple worth paddling for. The first decent chance doesn’t show up until the morning of Wednesday the 28th of August, and even then, it’s not great. The wind is a cross-on from the NNE at 10 km/h, the swell is a weak 3 ft from the east with a short period of 8 seconds, and the combined energy is a modest 103. It’s poor surf conditions, mate. The water temp is sitting around 78°, which is bang on average for the time of year.
We’ve got a few mornings with glassy conditions, like Sunday the 23rd of August, but the swell is just too small and weak to do anything with – 2 ft and 6 seconds period, energy at 44. It’s a shiny, flat lake. The week rolls on with similar stories: small, weak, short-period swells, mostly messed up by cross-onshore breezes. Tuesday the 25th of August morning has a tiny 2 ft swell with glassy conditions, but it’s still just “surfable but very ordinary.” Not worth the paddle.
The only real glimmer in the whole forecast is the morning of Friday the 4th of September. That’s two weeks out, so treat it as a hopeful long-range promise. The model shows a 5 ft swell from the east with an 8-second period, and the wind goes glassy – dead calm. The combined energy hits 255, which is moderate. The forecast says “expect good surf conditions.” That’s the standout. For a beginner-friendly spot like Jardim Atlantico, 5 ft is about the top end of fun, but it should be clean with that offshore wind. It’s not a giant, but it’s the only window where the stars align.
The rest of the time? Slop. Cross-on winds, weak energy, and a lot of days where the numbers just don’t stack up. There’s a solid two-week gap of nothing worth recommending before that Friday morning. For a spot that’s fairly consistent, this is a tough run. But forecasts can change, so don’t write the whole month off yet.
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.

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.
