The Lowdown
G’day, I’m Rusty. Let’s break down what’s heading for Akabane Long Beach over the next couple of weeks.
Straight up, the first few days are quiet. From Thursday the 23rd of July through the end of the month, the surf is tiny—maybe 1ft to 2ft—and the conditions are pretty average. Winds are shifting around, and the energy in the water is low, sometimes barely hitting triple digits. A couple of mornings are glassy, like Tuesday the 28th and Wednesday the 29th, but with such small waves, it’s more of a float around than a proper surf. Water temp is about 81°, right on average for this time of year.
By Saturday the 1st of August, things start to pick up a little. Sunday the 2nd sees waves around 4ft with a bit more push, and the combined energy hits 608, but winds are cross-on or onshore, so it’s not super clean.
Now, here’s where it gets serious. Come Monday the 3rd of August, the swell ramps up to 7ft to 8ft with a long 18 second period. The combined energy jumps to 2949 and 3969—that’s proper groundswell power. But the wind is still messy, and the surf is already pushing the limits for this spot. By Tuesday the 4th, we’re talking 12ft to 13ft waves, and the energy is over 9000. The forecast says the swell is too big for this break. For a beach break like Akabane Long Beach, that kind of size and power is only for experts. It’s so big that this setup might actually be better for kite surfers than paddle surfers.
Thursday the 6th and Friday the 7th of August keep serving up massive 12ft to 13ft waves with long period energy. There are some clean, glassy mornings and cross-off winds, but again, it’s just too big for this break. Crowds are marked as “often,” so you won’t be alone if you’re insane enough to go out.
If you’re a seasoned charger, the best moments are those glassy and cross-off mornings on Thursday the 6th and Friday the 7th. For everyone else, it’s either too small or way too big. Choose wisely.
Stay safe out there.
Rusty.
