The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let's talk about Jardim Atlantico in the coming days.
Water temp is a nice 78°, just about average for this time of year. The real highlight is Wednesday, July 22. Head out Wednesday morning for clean 5ft waves from the east. The wind is glassy out of the ENE at just 3 mph, and the combined energy is sitting at 347 (moderate). This is the best slot – good surf conditions and the wind is lining up nicely with the optimum ESE direction. Crowds can be "sometimes" here, so expect some company, but it'll be worth the paddle out.
By Wednesday afternoon the wind turns onshore and it's all downhill. The rest of the week offers a few glassy mornings, like Thursday the 23rd and Saturday the 25th, but the swell is tiny at 4ft and 3ft, with weak energy readings of 190 and 94 (weak). Surfable, but very ordinary.
Then we hit a long, dry spell. From Sunday the 26th of July through the end of the month and into early August, conditions are mostly poor. Onshore breezes, small 2ft–4ft swell, short 7-second periods, and low energy. It's just not happening.
There's a slight blip on Sunday, August 2, with 4ft east swell and 253 (moderate) energy, but the wind is cross-shore and it's only a marginal call. Not a goer.
The best advice I can give you is Wednesday morning, July 22. That's your window. The rest is a long, flat wait.
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.
