The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what the next couple of weeks are serving up for us.
Right off the bat, I gotta be straight with you – this is a tough outlook. We’re looking at a long, quiet stretch with very little to get excited about. The water temp is sitting at a warm 78°F (1°F warmer than usual), so it’s pretty average for this time of year, but you’ll be doing more floating than surfing.
The first real chance to even think about a paddle comes on Wednesday, 26 August. Jardim Atlantico will see a tiny 3ft swell from the ENE with a period of 8 seconds. The combined swell energy is a weak 107, so it’s barely got any punch. The morning is the play here, with glassy conditions (0 mph wind). It’s surfable, but very ordinary. This spot is a beginner-friendly beach, so if you’re learning, you might get a few small, weak rollers. It’s fairly consistent, but at these sizes, it’s not exactly a standout.
The only other session that even registers as marginal is Tuesday, 1 September morning. The swell lifts to 5ft from the ENE with a period of 8 seconds, and the combined energy jumps to 442. Still, the wind is a light cross-shore from the N, which is better than onshore but not perfect. It’s a step up in size, but for a beginner, 5ft is starting to push the limit, and the quality is still pretty flat.
After that, Wednesday, 2 September morning sees the biggest swell of the period at 6ft from the ENE (8 seconds), with a combined energy of 665. But again, the wind is a light cross-onshore, and the surf reports call it marginal. The afternoon has onshore wind, so the morning is your only window. This is still not a standout; it’s just the biggest of a very average bunch.
Honestly, the entire 16-day window is a write-off. There’s no true standout, no clean groundswell, just small, weak, wind-affected waves. The combined energy values are mostly in the double digits or low triple digits, meaning it’s low energy through and through. For a spot that’s fairly consistent, this is a dry spell. If you absolutely must get wet, the glassy morning of the 26th is your best bet for a clean, if tiny, session.
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.

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.
