Table - best surf conditions forecast for Akabane Long Beach over the next 16 days.
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s talk about what’s coming up for Akabane Long Beach over the next couple of weeks.
We’ve got a real mix bag on the cards. The standout – and I mean the absolute standout – is going to be this Sunday morning, the 12th of July. That’s the one you want to circle. We’re looking at a solid 10-foot swell from the SSW, with a very long period of 16 seconds. The wind is a light breeze from the NW, so it’s blowing cross-offshore, meaning super clean lines. The combined wave energy is massive (4924), so this is a powerful, groundswell-driven session. It’s a little big for the average punter, and the break is very consistent, so it’ll be a busy one with crowds likely. But for the experienced surfer, that’s the best window we’ve got.
After that, things drop off quickly. Monday the 13th still has a clean 6-foot swell in the morning, but the energy drops fast (851) and the wind picks up, making it marginal. By Tuesday the 14th, the swell is down to 3 feet, but that morning has offshore winds from the NNW – clean conditions, just small.
The middle of the week from Wednesday the 15th through to Friday the 17th is a flat spell. We’re talking dribbly 2-foot to 3-foot waves with onshore or cross-onshore winds. Not worth paddling out for.
Then there’s a bit of a pulse on Saturday the 18th of July. The swell jumps back up to 7 feet from the SE, but the wind is a fresh cross-onshore, which makes it lumpy and messy. The energy is solid (1457), but the quality is poor – that’s more of a kite-surfing setup than a paddler’s dream.
The next real hopeful window is Monday the 20th of July. The morning is glassy calm with a 4-foot swell from the SE. Clean conditions and a moderate energy (277). It’s surfable, but nothing to write home about. We get a similar glassy morning on Wednesday the 22nd with 3 feet of swell, and again on Friday the 24th of July with 3 feet. Those are your best bets for the second week, but they’re small and the swell direction is a bit unfavourable for the break.
The water temperature is about average for the time of year, nothing wild there.
So, to wrap it up: if you’re an experienced surfer, get out there on Sunday morning the 12th. That’s the one. The rest of the week is mostly flat or messy, with a few small, clean windows in the second week if you’re desperate for a paddle.
Stay stoked,
Rusty
