The Lowdown
G’day, Rusty here, with a look at the next 16 days for Akabane Long Beach. It’s a bit of a mixed bag, so let’s get into it.
The whole period kicks off with a solid run of clean, offshore winds on Friday the 4th and Saturday morning. We’re looking at a 4ft south swell early on Friday, with a 10-second period, and the combined swell energy is a moderate 275. The wind is blowing offshore from the NW, so it’ll be clean and lined up. Saturday morning sees a smaller 3ft SSW swell, but the wind has gone cross-offshore from the NE, keeping it rideable. That first Friday morning is the real standout here – the conditions are just about perfect for a long session.
Saturday afternoon, things get messy. A 5ft east-southeast swell with a short 6-second period and a strong 16 mph cross-shore wind makes for poor surf. Sunday is a write-off for paddle surfing – we’ve got a 7ft east-southeast swell building to 10ft by the afternoon, with a gusty east wind. With that much energy (up to 1495), it’s a big, lumpy mess. That’s kite surfing territory, not a fun day on a shortboard.
Monday morning is a bit of a tease. There’s a solid 10ft east swell with a 9-second period and clean offshore winds from the NNW (combined energy of 2188), but it’s simply too big for this break. Unless you’re an absolute expert, sit this one out.
Tuesday the 8th is a better call. The morning brings a 5ft south-southeast swell with a 10-second period and gentle offshore NW winds. The wave energy is 648, and the conditions are clean. That’s the second best window in the whole outlook.
From Wednesday the 9th, it’s a long, bleak stretch. We get a run of risk of thunderstorms, onshore winds, and messy, choppy surf. The swell drops right off, with tiny 1ft waves and long periods of poor conditions. There’s a gap of over a week with no real surf on offer.
There is a little glimmer on Monday the 14th. The morning is glassy with a 5ft east-southeast swell, but it’s a short period of 7 seconds, and the combined energy is only 296. It’s surfable, but nothing to get excited about.
After that, it’s back to poor conditions with cross-onshore winds and tiny swell for the rest of the run. The last few days of the period are a flat, windy mess.
So, to wrap it up: Friday morning, 4th September, is your best bet. It’s clean, offshore, with a fun south swell. Tuesday morning, the 8th, is the second pick. After that, it’s a long wait for the next decent wave.
Rusty.
