The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s cooking for our stretch of coast.
Honestly, the next week and a half is a bit of a flat spell. We’ve got a long gap of pretty ordinary conditions before anything worth paddling out for shows up. The first real glimmer of a surfable wave is on the morning of Thursday the 23rd of July, but it’s not going to get anyone too excited. The wait for something decent stretches all the way to the start of August.
The standout session, and really the only one I’d point you toward, is the morning of Tuesday the 4th of August. Jardim Atlantico (Jardim-Atlantico) is the only break on the radar, and it finally comes together. Expect clean, glassy conditions with a 4 ft swell from the east, period of 8 seconds. The combined energy is moderate (260). The wind is calm, making it dead glass, which is a major positive for a clean face. The water is about 78°F, which is pretty normal for this time of year. This is a beginner-friendly spot, so the 4 ft height is perfect for working on your turns. The swell direction from the east lines up nicely with the optimum ESE direction.
For the rest of the run, there are a few mornings with a glassy surface but tiny waves. Saturday the 25th of July morning has a 3 ft east swell but only 74 weak energy – more of a longboard cruise than a proper surf. The morning of Tuesday the 28th of July is similar, with a 2 ft swell and 64 energy. The morning of Thursday the 30th of July is flat with a 1 ft swell. The morning of Sunday the 2nd of August sees a bump in swell to 5 ft from the east, with 322 energy, but the wind is onshore from the ESE, so it’s messy and not worth it. The morning of Monday the 3rd of August is also a write-off with cross-onshore winds and a 4 ft swell.
So, if you’re keen, mark your calendar for the morning of the 4th of August. That’s your best bet. Everything else in the first week is a write-off, and the second week only has that one solid window.
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.
