The 2023 South Atlantic hurricane season is an ongoing South Atlantic hurricane season, which is part of the annual tropical cyclone season in the Northern Hemisphere. The South Atlantic Ocean cyclone season has no official bounds, but cyclones tend to form all year long, with the peak from January to May.

Starting with this season, the National Hurricane Center (NHC) took the resopnsibility of tracking storms in this basin, which were tracked by the Brazilian Navy Hydrographic Center until the end of 2022.
