The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let me be straight with you – the next couple of weeks are looking like a real bust for the surf. We’ve got a solid 16-day window, but it’s all a bit of a write-off, so don’t bother rushing to wax up your board just yet.
The only break on the radar is Batts Rock, a point break that’s already inconsistent. We’re talking about a two-and-a-half-week stretch starting August 9th and running all the way through August 24th where it’s just poor surf conditions, day in and day out. There’s a big gap of nothing for the first four days. The wind is offshore or cross-offshore most of the time, which would be a dream in any other setup, but there's simply no swell to work with. From the 13th onward, we do see tiny little pulses of 0.3 ft swell showing up, pushing in from the north with a period that drops from a long 15 seconds right down to a rubbish 6 seconds. The combined wave energy is basically non-existent, reading between 0 and 9 (weak energy) the whole time. It’s just flat.
By the second week, from the 18th to the 24th, it’s more of the same – those same tiny 0.3 ft waves, poor surf, and moderate to fresh offshore breezes. There’s nothing here to get excited about. Honestly, this is one of those blank runs that feels more normal for this spot. It tends not to stay this poor forever, and the forecasts can change, but as it stands, you’re better off finding something else to do. Stick the board in the shed.
Rusty.

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