The Lowdown
Hey, Rusty here, breakin’ down the next couple weeks.
It’s a slow burn to start, but there’s some proper swell coming if you can hang on. The first session worth paddlin’ for is Saturday morning, August 29th, at Akabane Long Beach. You’ve got a clean 4ft SW swell with a light offshore breeze out of the NNW, so it should be pretty tidy. Water temp’s about normal for late summer, nothin’ wild. Wave energy is moderate at (207). It’s a short 6-second period, so the waves won’t have much grunt, but the conditions will be clean. This spot breaks a lot, so you’ll have a wave, but expect company – this place gets busy often.
Sunday the 30th rolls in with onshore junk, and honestly, the whole first week of September looks pretty average. The swell tries to show, but the wind keeps messin’ it up. Lots of storm clouds and cross-shore slop. Not worth the paddle.
The real stand-out comes Thursday, September 10th, in the morning. A solid 5ft ESE groundswell (11-second period) lines up with a light WNW cross-offshore breeze. That’s the good stuff. Wave energy is pumpin’ at (882), clean conditions, and that long period means proper lines. This is not a beginner wave at this size – it’s solid intermediate to expert territory. The long period makes it better for a point or reef, but if the beach has a bank, it’ll be fun.
Friday the 11th keeps it goin’ with a 5ft ESE swell and clean winds again in the morning. Then Saturday the 12th? Glassy, dead calm, and a clean 5ft ESE groundswell. That’s the morning I’d mark on the calendar. Perfect conditions, decent power (504).
We finish off with a smaller clean morning on Sunday the 13th with a light offshore wind. The second week doesn’t hold any other big standouts, so hit that Thursday through Saturday window hard.
Rusty.

Information about the Akabane Long Beach Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Akabane Long Beach provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Akabane Long Beach can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Akabane Long Beach surf forecast is unique since it includes wave energy (power) that defines the real feel of the surf rather than just the height or the period. If you surf the same spot (Akabane Long Beach) regularly then make a mental note of the wave energy from the surf forecast table each time you go. 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.
