The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you – this stretch of coast is looking pretty quiet. We’ve got a 16-day window ahead, but honestly, there’s not a single session that’s going to get the heart racing. The first real chance to even think about paddling out comes on Tuesday the 8th of September, and even then, it’s a struggle.
Ambatia Beach is the only break on the cards, and it’s a sheltered, beginner-friendly beach and reef setup that rarely breaks. That’s a big red flag right there. The swell energy is tiny, with combined energy readings barely scraping into double digits – think 26 on the morning of the 8th. That’s weak energy, and the waves are just knee-high at 2 ft from the WNW, with a short period of 6 seconds. Not much push.
The winds are a bit of a tease. Most mornings are glassy, like on the 8th, 9th, 10th, and 11th, with a light WNW breeze. That’s the cleanest it gets, but the swell is simply too small and weak to do anything with. Afternoons get ruined by a cross-onshore NW breeze hitting 12 mph, turning the surface choppy and messy.
We’re looking at a long, flat run. The swell actually drops even lower through the middle of the window, with the 15th of September offering just 1 ft and a combined energy of 4. That’s virtually nothing. There’s a tiny bump towards the 19th of September, with a 4 ft swell from the north and a period of 5 seconds, but the combined energy is still only 78, and the wind is a fresh cross-onshore. It’s not worth the drive.
The water temperature isn’t mentioned in the data, so I can’t tell you if it’s warmer or colder than usual. But given the lack of swell, it doesn’t really matter. The wind is often cross-on or onshore, and the waves are just poor surf conditions across the board. For a spot that rarely breaks, this is a typical blank run. Sometimes it just doesn’t happen.
If you’re desperate on the 19th, you might see a 4 ft wave from the NNW, but with a 19 mph cross-onshore wind, it’ll be lumpy and ugly. This setup looks more interesting for a kite surfer than a paddle surfer, honestly.
Keep your gear in the van. There’s nothing here to get excited about.
Rusty.

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.

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.
