Alright, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on offer.
Right, straight up, I’ve got to be honest with you – this forecast for Jardim Atlantico is a real mixed bag, and there’s a fair bit of waiting around. For the next two weeks, there’s no single standout session that’s going to blow your mind, but there are a few windows where it’ll be worth a paddle.
Let’s start with the overall picture. The swell’s going to be small for the most part, with a few pulses of energy coming through. The water temp is sitting at a warm 79°, which is pretty much normal for this time of year. The biggest issue is the wind – it’s often cross or cross-on, which is going to mess up the surface unless we time it right.
Now, the first real chance for a surf kicks off on Tuesday morning, July 7th. We’ve got a small SSE swell at 3 ft with a short period of 6 seconds, so it’s a bit weak and windswelly. But the wind is a light cross-off from the SSW at just 6 mph, and the report says it’s “clean”. The combined energy is 131 (moderate), so there’s enough there for a longboard or a funboard. It’s not epic, but it’s surfable.
Thursday morning, July 9th, gives us a glimmer of hope. Swell is tiny at 1 ft from the SE, but the period is a nice long 13 seconds, and it’s glassy with a light SE breeze. That long period will bring some shape, but it’s very small. Combined energy is 101 (weak). You’ll need a log and a lot of patience.
Friday morning, July 10th, is similar – glassy again, 2 ft SE swell with an 11-second period. Energy is 111. Tiny, clean, and workable.
The swell picks up a bit starting Wednesday morning, July 15th, with 4 ft from the ESE. The period is short at 6 seconds, but the wind is a light cross-off from the SSW, keeping it clean. Combined energy is 98 (weak). It’s ordinary, but it’s a wave.
Then we get into the later part of the forecast, around Saturday morning, July 18th. The swell is 3 ft from the east with a 7-second period, but it’s glassy with a light ESE wind. Combined energy jumps to 145 (moderate). That’s probably the best of the bunch – clean, a little more push, but still small.
After that, into the third week, the swell starts to build a little more, hitting 4 ft on Monday morning, July 20th, from the east. However, the wind is onshore from the east at 6 mph, and the combined energy is a solid 215 (moderate). The period is still short at 7 seconds. It’s going to be a choppy, messy affair – more of a kite-surfing situation than a clean paddle session.
Honestly, if you’re keen, the cleanest waves will be those glassy or cross-off mornings when the swell is between 2 ft and 4 ft. Don’t expect perfection, but there are some surfable windows. The best bet is the Saturday morning of the 18th with that glassy 3 ft east swell.
Stay patient and check the tide.
Rusty.

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.
