The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Gotta be straight with you – this outlook is a tough one. We’ve got a 16-day window, but honestly, there’s not a single good surf option on offer for the whole period. It’s a real shame, but sometimes the ocean just goes to sleep.
Looking at the only break we have, Ambatia Beach, it’s a sheltered beach and reef setup that rarely breaks. The water temp is sitting at a balmy 85°F , which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year. But the warmth doesn’t make up for the lack of waves.
The entire forecast is a flat spell. From Thursday, August 6th, right through to Friday, August 21st, every single reading is marked as poor surf conditions. The swell is tiny, barely scraping 1.0ft to 3ft, and it’s all coming from the WNW with a weak period of just 6 to 7 seconds. The combined wave energy is pathetic – it only cracks the 100 mark once on the afternoon of Tuesday, August 18th (111), but even then, the wind is a moderate onshore breeze, ruining any chance of a shape. Most days the energy is down in the teens or twenties.
The wind is a major problem. We’ve got a mix of cross-shore and onshore breezes from the SW, W, and NNW all through the window. There’s one brief moment of glassy conditions on the morning of Thursday, August 13th, but with a wave height of just 1ft, it’s not even worth paddling out for. The setup looks more interesting for a kite surfer than a paddle surfer, to be honest.
It’s a blank run, plain and simple. For this area, a long stretch like this isn’t unheard of, but it doesn’t mean it’s fun. Forecasts can change, so keep an eye on it, but for now, save your energy. There’s simply nothing to chase.
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. 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.
