The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s take a look at what’s shaping up over the next couple of weeks. Right off the bat, we’ve got a slow start, but there’s a couple of windows where it’ll be worth paddling out.
The first few days are pretty ordinary, with small, weak swells and rubbish conditions. The real action doesn’t start to fire until Monday the 3rd of August. That morning, we’re looking at a clean 4ft swell from the east, with an 8-second period. The wind is glassy, and the combined energy is moderate at 306. It’s not a monster, but it’s the best we’ve seen so far. Jardim Atlantico is a beginner-friendly spot, so this is a good one for the learners to get a few fun, clean waves. The water temp is about average for this time of year.
Things get a bit iffy after that, but Wednesday the 5th of August morning is another standout. The swell drops slightly to 4ft from the east, but we get a nice offshore wind from the WSW, making for clean, fun waves. The energy is moderate (216). The break is fairly consistent, and crowds are only sometimes an issue, so it’s a solid weekday option.
Now, looking further ahead, Thursday the 13th of August morning is a true highlight. The swell bumps up to 5ft from the ESE, with a 7-second period. The wind is glassy, and the combined energy is strong at 351. This is the biggest, cleanest swell of the whole forecast, and for Jardim Atlantico, that’s a cracking session. It’s getting towards the top end for beginners at 5ft, but for anyone with a bit of experience, it’s going to be a ripper. Keep in mind it’s over a week away, so the long-range call is promising but not locked in.
The following Saturday the 15th of August morning also looks fun, with a 3ft swell from the east, but the period stretches out to 10 seconds, giving it a bit more grunt. The energy is moderate (252), and the glassy conditions will make it a clean, cruisy session.
Overall, the surf is pretty inconsistent through the period, with a lot of flat, poor-quality days. But when it’s on, it’s on. Best bets are Monday the 3rd, Wednesday the 5th, and that standout Thursday the 13th.
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.
