The Lowdown

G'day, Rusty here. Gotta be straight with ya—this stretch is pretty flat and frustrating for a while. The water temp's sitting around 79°, which is just about average for this time of year, so nothing weird going on there.

We're lookin' at a long, quiet run to kick things off. The first bit of surf worth paddlin' out for doesn't show up until Thursday the 6th of August, and even then it's hardly a call to action. Jardim Atlantico will have a small 4 ft easterly swell with a short 7-second period, and the combined energy is weak (196). The kicker? Glassy conditions in the morning—dead calm wind. That's the only thing makin' it surfable. It's a beginner spot and fairly consistent, but the waves are ordinary. Don't expect much.

From Thursday afternoon right through to Monday the 10th, it's all poor surf conditions. The winds turn onshore or cross-onshore, the swell stays small (3 ft to 4 ft), and period stays short. There's nothing to get excited about. Tuesday the 11th and Wednesday the 12th are more of the same—weak energy and choppy lines. This is a proper dry spell, mate.

Then we get a little blip on the Saturday the 15th morning. The swell drops to 3 ft, but the period jumps to a very long 13 seconds—proper groundswell energy. Combined energy is moderate at 261. Winds are light and cross-shore, so it might be rideable, but it's marginal. That long period at a beach break can make 'em close out a bit straight, so it's not a standout. Sunday the 16th keeps similar 3 ft swell with a 12-second period and light cross-onshore wind. Again, just marginal.

Now here's where it gets interesting. On Monday the 17th of August morning, we see a spike—8 ft swell from the SSE, 8-second period, with massive combined energy of 994. That's a lot of water moving. Wind is light cross-onshore, so it's messy. That size is only for experts—beginners stay well clear. The afternoon drops to 5 ft, still not great.

The real standout? Tuesday the 18th of August morning. Jardim Atlantico gets a 6 ft SE swell with 7-second period and combined energy at 423 (moderate to strong). But the big news is glassy conditions—dead calm. That's clean, lined-up surf. Winds are from the NW at just 3 mph. This is the best window in the whole forecast. For a beginner-friendly spot, that's about as good as it gets here. The swell direction (SE) is a little off the optimum (ESE), but with clean conditions and decent size, it's the pick.

After that, Wednesday the 19th and Thursday the 20th mornings have some glassy moments but the swell drops back to 3 ft–4 ft, and the energy fades. Nothing special.

So to wrap it up: there's a long quiet patch from now until Thursday morning, a few marginal days mid-month, and one clear standout on Tuesday the 18th of August morning. That's your session. Everything else is a scratch around.

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.
