The Lowdown
Alright, let’s look at what’s cookin’ at Jardim Atlantico over the next couple weeks. I’ll be honest, it’s a long dry spell to start. The first real chance to get wet doesn’t show up until early September, so we’ve got some waiting to do.
From Tuesday, 25 August, all the way through the end of the month, it’s pretty grim. Waves are tiny, mostly 2ft to 5ft, but the wind is blowing onshore or cross-onshore from the east and northeast, just trashing any chance of a clean face. The swell energy is weak to moderate – numbers like 61 and 226 in the brackets, nothing that gets you excited. For a beginner-friendly break like this, you’re looking at chopped-up, wind-rippled slop. The water temp is about normal for the season.
Then we get to Monday, 7 September. This is the first time you might want to paddle out. There’s a 6ft swell from the southeast with an 8-second period, and the energy is a solid 626 – that’s got some grunt. But the wind is cross-shore from the south at 20 km/h, so it’ll be bumpy. It’s rated as “marginal,” not terrible, but not great.
The best of the whole stretch looks like Tuesday, 8 September in the afternoon. Swell is 6ft from the east, period 8 seconds, with a big energy reading of 700. Winds are lighter, cross-onshore from the south-southeast at around 15 km/h. Still not glassy, but it’s the cleanest we get. For Jardim Atlantico, a gentle beach break, this is your window. The swell direction is east, which is close enough to the southeast optimum to work.
That Wednesday morning, 9 September, also has “marginal” conditions with a 5ft east swell and even lighter south-southeast winds at about 10 km/h. Another session to consider, but nothing special.
So, we’ve got a big gap of nearly two weeks with no surf. The first real chance is on the 7th, and the best is the afternoon of the 8th. It’s not going to be epic, but if you need a paddle, that’s your time. On those windy days, this setup looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing.

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.
