The Lowdown
Alright folks, it’s Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you – this forecast is a tough one for Ambatia Beach. We’re looking at a 16-day window that’s pretty much a write-off for any decent surf. The first real recommendation doesn’t even pop up until the very end of the run, so you’re looking at a long, dry gap right from the start.
For the first couple of weeks, from the 21st of July all the way through to the 4th of August, the swell is tiny and weak. The wind is mostly onshore or cross-onshore, messing up whatever little bump there is. The combined energy of all swells directed here stays mostly in the double digits, so weak wave energy (7 – 95). It’s a lot of chop and closeouts, honestly more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing. There’s a brief moment on the morning of the 27th of July where the wind goes glassy, but with only 3ft of weak, short-period swell, it’s just not enough to get excited about.
Now, the one standout in this whole outlook is the morning of Saturday the 1st of August. We see a bit of a pulse. The swell picks up to 3ft from the WNW, with a period of 8 seconds. The combined energy hits 128, which is moderate wave energy. The wind is light and cross-shore out of the SW, so the conditions will be clean with just small crossing wind ripples. It’s not a world-beater, but it’s the best on offer. The water will be about average for the time of year here.
After that, it drops back off again. The 5th of August offers nothing special. So, for a surfer, this is a lean period. The forecast could change, but for now, if you’re desperate, set your alarm for the morning of the 1st of August. Otherwise, keep the board in the car and wait for a better run.

Information about the Ambatia Beach Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Ambatia Beach provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Ambatia Beach can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Ambatia 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 (Ambatia 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 Ambatia 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. Please always bear in mind that the forecast is for near-shore open water and local factors at each surf break influence the actual breaking wave height, such as the beach / reef profile, water depths offshore and shelter.
