The Lowdown
Righto, folks, Rusty here. Let’s talk about what’s cookin’ at Barron Rivermouth. This is a point and river mouth setup, pretty consistent, and it's got a good track record. The water is a proper warm 89°F right now, which is a couple of degrees toastier than normal for this time of year.
The outlook kicks off this Monday morning, September 7th, with a solid little SW groundswell. We’re looking at clean 3ft waves with a 14-second period, a fair bit of energy behind it (513). The wind is light and cross-offshore from the SE, so it’s going to be glassy. That’s the standout session of the whole run – proper good, clean, workable waves. This is a wave that’ll hold up nicely.
The afternoon turns ugly, though. The wind swings onshore from the WSW at 9 mph, and it’s game over. Tuesday morning, the 8th, is glassy again with a touch of East wind and 2ft swell, but it’s a drop in energy (318). Still, a good option if you’re keen. The afternoons are a write-off for the rest of the week, with onshore winds making a mess of things.
The morning sessions from Wednesday the 9th through to the following week are a real mixed bag. The swell hangs around 2ft to 3ft, and the period is solid, sometimes getting up to 19 or 20 seconds. That’s proper long-period groundswell, which means more energy and better shape, but it can make the take-off a bit tricky at a river mouth. The energy is moderate to strong (between 227 and 564), but the wind is often cross-on or on, making it a bit of a bumpy ride. The best of the mornings after that first Monday would be Saturday the 19th and Monday the 21st of September – the swell is 2ft to 3ft, with a very long period of 18 and 17 seconds, and the wind is light and onshore, or slightly cross. The water will still be warm, but the conditions are marginal. The crowds are a “sometimes” thing here, so you might have some company, but it’s not a zoo.
Honestly, the big standout is that Monday morning session. The rest of the 16-day window is a waiting game for a clean morning window, with the wind being the main spoiler. It’s not a big swell, so it’s fine for all levels.
Rusty.

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