The Lowdown
Alright, let me give you the rundown for Akabane Long Beach in feet and miles per hour.
Right now, conditions are nothing special. Thursday the 10th and Friday the 11th have light cross-onshore winds and small, messy waves—about 4ft from the south and 5ft from the ESE. The combined energy is in the moderate range (300 and 229). Water temp is a warm 81°, which is about normal for this time of year.
Saturday and Sunday the 12th and 13th are a total bummer. Fresh to moderate cross-onshore winds and choppy conditions mean poor surf, even though there’s some swell around.
Monday the 14th is still poor, but Tuesday the 15th is your day. Tuesday morning brings a gentle offshore breeze from the NNW and waist-high 4ft swell from the SE with a 9-second period. The energy is moderate (263), and the wind is clean—great for an intermediate surfer. Tuesday afternoon stays nice with a light offshore too.
Wednesday the 16th is glassy by the afternoon, with 3ft from the SE. Lower energy (164), but the clean conditions make for a fun, mellow session.
Things ramp up on Friday the 18th with swell building to 6ft in the morning and 8ft by the afternoon from the ESE. The energy jumps to moderate and strong (580 and 1361). The period is short at 8 seconds, so the waves are a bit crumbly, but cross-shore winds keep it surfable.
Now, Saturday the 19th and Sunday the 20th: big, dangerous swell. Waves hit 12ft to 21ft from the SE and SSE with very long periods of 16-17 seconds. The energy is absolutely massive (6818 to 25623). But Akabane Long Beach can’t handle that size, especially with cross-onshore winds. This is expert-only territory, and honestly, it’s more a kite-surfing day than paddle surfing. Stay on the sand if you’re not an expert.
After that, Monday the 21st drops to 6ft with moderate cross-shore winds and a 11-second period, but energy drops to 690 and conditions are marginal. The rest of the week into the 22nd and 23rd is blown out or too small, with energy near zero (38 to 92). There’s a tiny window on the 25th of September with a light offshore and 2ft from the SSE, but it’s barely worth it.
Your best bet is Tuesday the 15th—clean offshore winds and chest-high swell. That’s the standout. The big stuff on the 19th and 20th is too much for this break. After that, the forecast goes quiet.
Keep your board waxed, and don’t sweat the flat spells—things can change quick.
