The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what Jardim Atlantico has in store for us over the next couple of weeks. It’s going to be a slow start, so don’t be in a rush to grab your board.
We’re looking at a long stretch of pretty ordinary conditions from now through the end of the month. The first real chance of a surf isn’t until Saturday the 25th of July, with a tiny 3ft easterly swell and calm, glassy conditions in the morning. The energy is weak (73), and the wave quality is just "surfable" but nothing special. It’s a beginner-friendly break, so if you’re just learning, that morning window is your best bet before the onshore breeze messes it up.
The next few days are a write-off. Sunday the 26th has a similar morning window with 2ft easterly swell and glassy wind, but it's still small and weak. From Monday the 27th all the way through to Friday the 31st of July, it’s mostly poor surf with small waves, weak energy (mostly between 31 and 90), and onshore winds. There are a few glassy mornings here and there, but the swell is too small to get excited about.
The first week of August doesn't look much better for quality. By Saturday the 1st of August, the swell picks up to 4ft from the east, and the energy bumps up to moderate (172), but the wind is cross-onshore and the conditions are poor. The same goes for Sunday the 2nd and Monday the 3rd – the swell sticks around 3ft to 4ft, but the wind is not cooperating. On Monday the 3rd, there’s a glassy morning with 4ft easterly swell and moderate energy (185), but it’s still just "surfable".
The standout in this whole forecast comes on Sunday the 9th of August. That morning we’ve got a 8ft easterly swell with a 10-second period, strong energy (1125), and glassy conditions with a slight offshore from the north-northeast. This is the one to circle on the calendar. For experienced surfers, this is excellent. The swell direction is a good match for the optimum ESE, and the clean conditions will make for some proper waves. Heads up though – at 8ft, this is strictly for the experienced crew, and with a moderate period, the sets will have some punch. If you’re not comfortable out there, give it a miss.
Overall, don’t hold your breath for the first two weeks. The best bet is that Sunday the 9th of August morning. Keep your fingers crossed, and the forecasts can change.
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.
