The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's get into it.
First up, we're looking at a stretch that starts off pretty flat and stays that way for a while. The real story here is the wait for the end of the forecast period, because the first solid shot at anything rideable doesn't show up until the morning of Friday, September 4th. That’s a long gap of over a week with no surf recommendations.
The only break on the radar is Jardim Atlantico. It’s an exposed beginner-friendly spot that’s fairly consistent, but for almost the entire 16-day run the conditions are poor. We’ve got small swell mostly out of the east, and the wind is constantly cross-onshore, chopping everything up. The wave energy stays weak, with a combined energy reading of only 38 on Monday morning, August 24th. It barely cracks triple digits in the moderate range on the 26th, hitting 115, but that’s still tiny surf with a 7-second period and an average water temp of 78°F—which is about normal for the time of year.
Things finally shift a little on Friday, September 4th. The morning brings glassy conditions with a light north wind at 3 mph. Swell is 3 ft from the east, with an 8-second period. The combined energy is a moderate 184. The comment says "surfable waves but very ordinary conditions". Honestly, for this spot, that’s the best we’ll get. It’s small, but clean. That’s your standout. For a bigger swell, there’s nothing else.
Outside of that Friday morning, the rest of the run is a write-off. After that Friday high point, it fades again to small 3 ft onshore slop through the weekend and into the next week. If you’re a beginner looking for a gentle, clean introduction, Friday morning, September 4th is the only time to paddle out.
Rusty, signing off.

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.
