Alright folks, Rusty here. Gotta be straight with you – it’s a bit of a rough stretch ahead for Jardim Atlantico. We’ve got a run of small, messy, onshore slop for many days before we see a glimmer of something halfway decent.
We kick off on Saturday, 4th of July, with a weak 4ft swell out of the E, but the cross-onshore ESE breeze at 9 mph has it all chopped up. The combined energy is weak at 241, and the conditions are just poor. Sunday 5th isn’t any better – same size swell, light cross-shore wind, and still marginal.
Monday 6th July morning offers a slight reprieve. It’s clean with a light cross-offshore breeze from the SSW at just 3 mph, but the swell has dropped to a gutless 3ft from the E with weak energy (114). It’s surfable, but very ordinary. The rest of that week into the next looks like a write-off – small, weak waves with periods under 8 seconds and mostly onshore or cross-onshore winds. A real flat spell.
We finally get a touch of something interesting. On Saturday 11th July morning, the swell direction swings to the SE with a period of 13 seconds – that’s proper groundswell energy. The combined energy bumps up to 164 (moderate), and the wind is a clean cross-offshore from the NNW at 6 mph. The wave height is still only 2ft, so don’t expect much push, but it’ll be the cleanest and most lined-up we’ve seen in a while. Sunday 12th July morning is also glassy with the same size SE swell, energy at 124. These two windows are lookin’ like the only real standouts in the whole forecast.
For a beginner-friendly break like Jardim Atlantico, these tiny, clean days are your best bet. The water temp is a pleasant 79°F, which is about average for this time of year. Don’t expect any crowd; on these small days it’ll be quiet.
After that, it’s back to the doldrums. We see a few more glassy mornings (like Wednesday 16th and Friday 17th July) but with even less swell – 2ft to 2ft with periods around 6-7 seconds. Weak energy readings (38 to 64). Just not enough grunt to get you going.
Honestly, the best advice I can give is to wait for the 11th and 12th. It’s not going to be epic, but it’s the best we’ve got in this 16-day 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.
