The Lowdown

Alright, surfers, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s coming our way for Biologia.

Right now, it’s flat. Totally dead. We're looking at a dry spell that stretches from now through the 24th of August. Nothing worth paddling out for. But hang in there, because things start to wake up on Tuesday the 25th.

We get our first pulse of energy on Tuesday morning. It’s small, with waves around 1ft from the SE, but the wind is a clean cross-offshore from the North. The combined energy is weak at 114, but it’s a start. By Tuesday afternoon, that swell builds to a more promising 4ft, still from the SE, and the period stretches out to a very long 15 seconds. This is proper groundswell energy, with the combined energy jumping to 617. That kind of long period works great at a point break like Biologia, shaping up nicely for a long, drawn-out ride. The wind remains a clean cross-off, so conditions should be tidy.

Wednesday the 26th keeps that energy going. Morning sees 4ft from the SE with a 13-second period and combined energy at 614. Wind is still cross-off from the North, keeping things clean. The afternoon looks a little bumpier as the wind swings cross-shore, but it’s still surfable.

Now, for the standout of the whole run: Thursday the 27th, first light. The swell drops a bit to 3ft, but the wind goes glassy offshore from the West. That’s the sweet spot. Clean lines, no chop, just you and the wave. The combined energy sits at 259, which is moderate, but with that wind, the quality will be miles better than the numbers suggest.

After Thursday, the swell fades fast. Friday the 28th has some tiny, clean waves, but it’s really only for the longboard or a fun summer stick. From Saturday the 29th right through to the 3rd of September, it’s back to poor conditions or very weak, short-period slop. We get a bit of a spike again on the 5th of September with 4ft from the NE, but the period is a short 7 seconds and the wind is cross-off, so it will be lumpy and weak.

The best bet, without a doubt, is the morning of Thursday the 27th at Biologia. The offshore glass and that lingering SE groundswell is the only real window of quality in the whole outlook.

Rusty, signing off.
