The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here again. Let’s break down Jardim Atlantico in feet and Fahrenheit.
It’s a quiet spell for the most part. The best opportunities are looking like the weekend of August 2nd and into Monday the 3rd, when the ocean finally wakes up a bit.
Friday, July 24th starts us off with a small 3ft easterly swell, 8-second period, and weak energy. Morning has a light cross-off NNW breeze, so the surface is clean, but it’s nothing special. By afternoon, the wind goes onshore from the ENE at 6 mph and it turns poor. Saturday the 25th morning is glassy with a light SE breeze, but the swell drops to 3ft (energy 73). Surfable, but barely. After that, the wind gets messy and the swell stays tiny through the weekend.
Monday the 27th morning is the only clean window in the early days – a 2ft swell with a glassy SSE wind. It’s a longboard morning if you’re keen. Then we hit a long dry patch from Tuesday the 28th until the end of the month. Onshore winds and weak swell, nothing worth paddling out for.
Here’s the real shift. Sunday, August 2nd morning, the swell jumps to 5ft from the ESE, period at 7 seconds, and the energy hits 382 – that’s moderate power and the biggest we’ve seen. The wind is cross-on from the SE at 6 mph, so it’s a little bumpy, but this is the standout for size. The afternoon is onshore and poor. Monday the 3rd morning is your second best look – a 4ft easterly swell (energy 221) with a light cross-shore S wind at 3 mph. Clean surface, surfable conditions.
From Tuesday the 4th to Saturday the 8th, the wind picks up from the SSE and SE, often 10-16 mph, and the swell stays around 3-4ft. The energy is moderate (between 127 and 193), but the cross-on wind makes it tough for a good session. The morning of Friday the 7th has a clean cross-off breeze from the S, but the swell is only 4ft, so it’s just ordinary.
For a beginner break, the swell never gets too big (never over 5ft), so it’s safe, but the wind is the main problem. The best bets are the morning of Sunday, August 2nd, for the most size, and Monday, August 3rd morning, for the cleanest conditions with that size. Not epic, but it’s what we’ve got.
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.
