The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you. Looking over this 16-day window, I can tell you right now, there’s nothing to get excited about. The forecast is one long stretch of dud conditions, so we’re looking at a full blank run for the entire period.
The only spot we’ve got data on is Ambatia Beach, and it’s a sheltered beach and reef setup that rarely breaks. That’s a tough starting point. The water is running at a steamy 86°, which is about 4° warmer than usual for this time of year – that’s notably warm, almost like a bath. But don’t let that fool you, because the surf is a no-go.
We’re looking at tiny surf day after day. Through Thursday the 10th and Friday the 11th, you’re looking at knee-high stuff at best, 1 ft to 2 ft, with weak energy readings in the teens and twenties. The wind is glassy on the mornings, which would be a dream, but there’s just nothing to ride. On the 10th, it’s glassy out of the WNW with 2 ft swell, but with a combined energy of only 26 – that’s a yawn.
The pattern holds all the way into the second week. Saturday the 14th, Monday the 16th, Wednesday the 18th – the mornings are glassy and clean, but the swell is pathetic, stuck between 1 ft and 3 ft. The energy never gets past 75, which is still weak. The swell period is short, all under 8 seconds, so it’s just wind chop. By the 25th of September, it’s down to 0.7 ft. That’s not surf, that’s a lake.
The only thing worth noting is that when the swell does creep up to 3 ft – like on the 16th – it’s coming from the NW, which is actually the optimum direction for this break. But the period is only 7 seconds, so it’s weak and messy. The afternoons are always ruined by onshore or cross-onshore winds hitting 12 mph, and the wave comment is “poor surf conditions” every single time. There’s no standout day. Not one.
If you’re a kite surfer, the afternoons when the wind is up and the surf is grovelly might be more interesting than paddling out. For a surfer? Honestly, the forecasts can change, and it tends not to stay this flat forever, but for now, you’re better off doing something else.
Rusty.

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.

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.
