The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here again with the imperial take.
To be blunt, the whole 16-day forecast is a struggle. The first seven days – from Thursday the 10th through Wednesday the 16th – are a total blank for decent surf. Small, weak swells and a constant cross-shore breeze mean you’re not missing anything.
We get a little spike on Thursday the 17th. Swell bumps up to 5ft from the E, period 9 seconds, combined energy at 709 (moderate). But the wind is still cross from the E at 25 km/h, keeping the surface choppy. The morning is the only real window, and even that is marginal. After that, the rest of the run slides back into poor conditions with moderate cross-chop.
The best of the worst is the morning of Thursday 17th September at Baldwin Beach Park (reef and point). Swell 5ft from the E, period 9s, combined energy 709. Wind is cross from the E at 25 km/h – not clean by any stretch, but it’s the most juice you’ll see. Water temp is normal for the season. Crowds are possible, but honestly, it won’t be packed for that.
Swell never really pushes past 5ft, so it’s not too heavy for beginners, but the wind and chop will make it a chore. With the constant cross-breeze, this stretch is more appealing for kite surfing than a paddle session.
A long, quiet spell, mate. It won’t last forever.
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.
