The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here, let's have a look at what’s coming up.
Alright folks, this stretch is a bit of a tough one. The only break with any real action on the cards is Baldwin Beach Park. It kicks off this Saturday the 5th with a solid 7 ft swell out of the ENE, but the wind is a messy cross or cross-on, and the wave energy reading is high at a strong 1340. The water temp is about average for this time of year, so no surprises there. But honestly, Saturday and Sunday the 6th look like a write-off – the waves are mushy, cross-chop is ruining the shape, and it’s not worth paddling out for.
The first real glimmer comes on Tuesday morning, the 8th of September. We’ve got a drop to a 6 ft ENE swell with an 11-second period, and the wind finally swings light offshore (ESE at 6 mph). The energy is still moderate at 811. This is the standout session of the whole outlook. The line-up will be clean, and for a beginner-to-intermediate spot, that’s a nice window. Crowds are likely, so get there early. After that, things get messy.
From Wednesday the 9th all the way through to Sunday the 20th, it’s a long, grim gap. Swell hangs around the 3 ft to 6 ft mark, period drops short (7-8 seconds), and that cross-shore wind just won’t quit. The wave energy plummets to weak levels (reading as low as 233 to 418 by the end). The whole setup is poor, with cross-chop and often choppy conditions. Honestly, with the consistent wind and mediocre shape, it looks more interesting for a kite session than a proper paddle.
So, your only real chance to get wet is Tuesday morning the 8th at Baldwin Beach Park. Make it count, because the waiting game after that is a long one.
Rusty.

Information about the Baldwin Beach Park Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Baldwin Beach Park provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Baldwin Beach Park can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Baldwin Beach Park 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 (Baldwin Beach Park) 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 Baldwin Beach Park 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.
