Blue Bay Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright, Rusty here, let’s break down what Blue Bay’s throwing at us.

Water temp’s about 64°F, which is around 1°F cooler than average for this time of year – nothing drastic, just a bit brisk.

We’re starting off flat, no real surf to speak of. First proper window hits Tuesday the 25th in the morning. There’s a 5ft swell from the NE with a short 7-second interval, but the wind is light and cross-offshore, so it’ll be clean. Combined energy is 363 – moderate. The afternoon steals the show though: 6ft from the NE with offshore winds out of the WNW at light strength, clean conditions, and moderate energy. That’s your highlight. For an inconsistent reef break like Blue Bay, that’s a real treat for the intermediate surfer.

Wednesday the 26th drops: 3ft from the ENE, 8-second period, cross-off breeze from the SW, clean but weak-to-moderate energy (151). It’s there, but nothing special.

Thursday the 27th morning bounces back: 5ft from the S, 8-second period, light cross-off SSW wind, and 435 energy – solid moderate. Afternoon goes onshore and choppy, so morning is the move.

Friday the 28th has 4ft from the S with a longer 10-second period, but tricky cross-on morning winds. Energy is 373 – moderate. Marginal tide conditions.

From Saturday the 29th onward, it’s a steady fade. Swell drops under 3ft after the 31st, and energy readings fall to double digits – 72, 48, 45 – weak stuff. By early September, you’re looking at knee-high dribble. A couple glassy mornings on September 1st and 2nd with tiny 2-2ft swell, but it’s more of a paddleboard or log session.

Best bet is Tuesday the 25th afternoon: 6ft NE with light offshore wind, clean, and the most energy you’ll see in the whole outlook. Blue Bay is inconsistent, so grab it while it’s there.
