Jobos Surf Report & Ideal Conditions

Live NOAA data · Updated 2026-08-26
As of the latest buoy reading (2026-08-26 10:00 UTC), Jobos is fair: the live 0–2 ft short-period swell from the NE matches its ideal NE direction and is under its usual size, and the wind is strong from the E. Jobos is most often good on a 4–6 ft short-period (under 8s) swell from the NE, with moderate wind from the N, on a mid outgoing tide — the conditions LazySurfer surfers have logged and rated highest here. It's a break best left to experienced surfers.

Frequently asked

Is Jobos working right now?

Is Jobos good for beginners?

Jobos is best suited to experienced surfers — it's most often good on larger 4–6 ft surf that breaks with more power than beginners should take on. Conditions change daily, so always check the live report on this page before paddling out.

What's the best tide for Jobos?

Jobos tends to be best on a mid outgoing tide — the tide stage LazySurfer surfers have rated highest here. Tide changes how the swell breaks, so check the two-day tide chart on this page for today's high and low times.

What swell direction is best for Jobos?

The best swell direction for Jobos is from the northeast (NE). Swell arriving from the northeast lines up best with how this break faces, which is when LazySurfer surfers have rated it highest.

What's the best wind for Jobos?

Jobos is most often good with moderate wind from the north (N) — the wind LazySurfer surfers logged on their best-rated sessions here. Wind direction grooms or chops the wave face, so check the live report for current wind.

Where does LazySurfer's surf data for Jobos come from?

LazySurfer reads public data directly from NOAA's National Data Buoy Center and the National Weather Service — the nearest NDBC wave buoy (station 41121) and the nearest NOAA tide station (Mayaguez). The same raw readings NOAA publishes, with no proprietary smoothing.

Does LazySurfer predict whether Jobos is good for me?

Yes. LazySurfer trains a custom deep-learning model — a PyTorch neural network with per-user embeddings, retrained weekly on real logged surf sessions from the LazySurfer community — to predict the 1-to-5 star rating you personally would give, rather than a single average rating for everyone.
