The Lowdown
Right, folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you – this one is a tough pill to swallow. We’re looking at a 16-day run for Batts Rock, a point break on the west coast, and there’s not a single day that’s going to get your heart pumping. The whole window is a flat, wind-affected mess.
The first day we see any swell at all is Tuesday, September 1st, and it’s a tiny 0.7 ft pulse from the north, with a long period of 10 seconds. The combined energy is a weak 11, and the E wind is a moderate 16 mph. The water temp is about average for this time of year, but that’s about the only thing that’s normal. The surf is just poor.
From Wednesday, September 2nd right through to Wednesday, September 16th, we’re stuck in the same loop. The swell never gets above 1.0 ft, and for a lot of the run, it’s completely flat. The wind is relentless – a constant 16 to 25 mph easterly, sometimes a touch ENE. The energy readings are a joke, hovering between 0 and 14, and the wave comment is “poor surf conditions” on every single row. It’s a full 16 days of nothing.
For a spot that’s already inconsistent, this is a total blank run. The offshore wind is clean, but there’s simply no water moving. The setup looks more interesting for a kite surfer than a paddle surfer. The forecast can change, but right now, don’t even bother waxing up. There’s no standout. There’s no surf.
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.
