The Lowdown
Alright, mate, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on offer for this stretch of coast.
Right then, honest truth: the next 16 days are a write-off for anything decent. The juice just isn’t there. From Sunday the 23rd of August all the way through to Monday the 7th of September, every single session is tagged as poor surf conditions. There’s no moment where the stars align for a proper paddle. That’s a long, dry spell.
It starts quiet and stays quiet. Sunday morning the 23rd has a weak 3ft easterly swell with a shocking 5-second period. Combined energy is a measly 50, and the breeze is a cross-shore. It’s choppy and ugly. That same flat, weak pattern carries through Monday and Tuesday with tiny 1ft to 2ft waves and onshore or cross-shore winds. Nothing to get excited about.
Midweek gets a little more push, but still poor. Wednesday the 26th sees combined energy hit a moderate 105, but the swell is only 2ft from the NE with an 8-second period and a cross-onshore wind, making it choppy. By Thursday the 27th, combined energy jumps to 265, and the swell gets to 3ft from the ENE, still with a short 8-second period. The wind stays cross or cross-onshore, leaving an ugly cross-chop.
Friday the 28th is similar: 3ft ENE swell, moderate energy at 238, but again, onshore wind. Saturday the 29th is the closest we get to anything interesting: a 2ft NE swell with a very long 16-second period, combined energy at 232. That long period would mean the sets are fat and walled-up, but on a beach break like this, that period can make it close out. And the wind is still cross-shore, so it’s messy. Not a day to race to the water.
From there it’s a slow fade: the 30th has a 4ft NE swell with 10 seconds and energy of 430 – the biggest energy reading – but it’s cross-onshore and choppy. Into September, it’s all cross-onshore and weak, with energy dropping back below 100 by the 2nd and staying there. The 6th of September sees a 3ft ENE swell with 6-second period, energy 105, and cross-shore winds. It’s just a grind.
Look, conditions are consistently cross-shore or onshore, the swell is either tiny or short-period, and the quality is never there. Don’t waste the fuel. For an exposed spot like this, it’s a proper flat spell.
Rusty.
