The Lowdown
Alright, this is Rusty with the imperial version. Let’s get into it, mate.
Right now, we’re looking at a pretty grim stretch of small, weak surf for the next week at Akabane Long Beach. The immediate days from Sunday the 26th of July through to Monday the 3rd of August are offering mostly ankle-biters around 1ft to 2ft, with the combined swell energy barely hitting triple digits (126 down to 48). The water temperature is sitting at 82°F, which feels normal for this time of year. There’s almost nothing worth paddling for in that first week – just a lot of clean but tiny conditions or cross-onshore junk.
Tuesday the 4th of August morning looks like the first real standout. Swell jumps to 6ft from the SE, with a long 16-second period, and combined energy is massive (1954). It’s glassy with light ESE wind, so the surface will be clean. This is solid intermediate territory – not for beginners, but not too crazy. The SE direction lines up well with the break’s optimum. Expect crowds though, since this spot “often” gets packed. Wednesday the 5th of August morning pushes it further with 8ft SE swell and glass again – that is excellent for experienced surfers, but the 8ft size means beginners should sit it out. The long period (16s) means the waves will have good shape and power at this beach, but it might be a bit straight-breaking at times.
Thursday the 6th of August morning gets to 10ft SE, still glassy, but for my money that’s too big for Akabane Long Beach – it’s expert-only, and the data even says the swell is predicted to be too big for this break. Same goes for Friday the 7th with a massive 15ft SE swell and clean offshore NNE wind, but the energy is an insane 12977 – way over the top for a beach setup. By Saturday the 8th, we’re talking 25ft and gale-force winds, so that’s purely a survival or kite situation.
Bottom line: the best two slots to get excited about are the 4th and 5th of August mornings. Clean, head-high, long-period groundswell. Grab them before the ocean turns angry.
