The Lowdown
Alright, surfers, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's on the menu for the coming weeks.
We’ve got a classic summer set-up on the cards for Akabane Long Beach. The water is sitting at a warm 82°, which is pretty much bang on average for this time of year, so no nasty surprises there.
The week kicks off with a real standout on Monday morning, August 24th. We’re looking at a clean 3ft SSE groundswell with a beautiful 18-second period, giving it some real push and power. The combined wave energy is a solid 948, so there’s plenty of juice. But the best part? Glassy conditions, not a breath of wind. It’s going to be smooth as a mirror. This is the pick of the bunch for the whole forecast, no doubt. Just be aware that crowds are often at this spot, so get there early.
The swell builds through the week, but the wind turns against us. Monday afternoon and Tuesday see the swell jump to 7ft and 8ft from the SSE, with a lot of power (2246 combined energy), but it’s blown out by cross-onshore winds. That’s a no-go for paddling, but if you’re into kite surfing, those conditions might be more your speed.
We get a little breather of glassy conditions again on Friday morning, August 28th, with a smaller 4ft S swell. The combined energy is down to 277, so it’s not as powerful, but it’ll be clean. The rest of that weekend into early next week is pretty poor, with tiny waves and bad wind.
Now, looking further ahead, there’s a promising window on Thursday, September 3rd. The afternoon session on Thursday is looking excellent for experienced surfers. We’ve got a 5ft S swell (13-second period, 1056 combined energy) and clean conditions with a cross-offshore wind. That’s a solid, powerful wave for the crew who know what they’re doing.
After that, things get messy again. Strong winds kick in, and the swell drops off. There’s a brief flash of hope on Monday morning, September 7th, with glassy conditions and a small 2ft ESE swell, but it’s weak. We’re then looking at Tuesday morning, September 8th, as another potential highlight. It’s a 4ft S swell with a 12-second period, and for the first time in a while we get a gentle offshore wind, making for clean conditions. It’s a long way out, so keep an eye on it, but it could be a nice little session.
The real standout is undeniably Monday morning, August 24th. That’s the one you want to clear your schedule for.
Rusty.

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 Akabane Long Beach 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.
