The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's on the cards for the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, it's a flat spell. We're looking at a long stretch of tiny to no surf at Batts Rock, with clean conditions but nothing to ride. The water temp is sitting at 84°, which is about average for this time of year, so at least the wait will be comfortable.
Kicking off Wednesday the 19th and running right through, we've got a run of days where the combined swell energy is 0 or single digits. The biggest bump we see is a measly 1.0 ft from the north on Friday the 21st, with a short period of 8 seconds and energy of just 10 (weak). The wind is offshore from the east, so conditions will be clean, but you're looking at knee-high dribble at best. This pattern of tiny, poor surf conditions continues day after day.
There are a couple of tiny pulses later on. On Saturday the 29th of August, there's a 0.3 ft north swell with a period of 14 seconds, giving a combined energy of 4. Then on Sunday the 30th, a 0.7 ft north swell with a 13-second period nudges the energy up to 13. That's a long-period groundswell, which at a point break like Batts Rock could produce a clean peel, but at that size, it's barely a ripple. After that, it's back to zeroes until the end of the run on the 3rd of September.
There are no standouts here. The best on offer is probably that Sunday the 30th of August, with the 0.7 ft north groundswell and offshore easterly winds, because it’s the most energy we see, but it's not going to get anyone excited. It's one of those stretches where you leave the board in the car and enjoy the view.
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.
