The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here again. Gonna run through the same sixteen days, but in feet and degrees Fahrenheit.
Not much cooking for a long while. The first real chance to ride anything comes on September 20th – that’s nearly two weeks out. Before that, swell is tiny – around 0.3ft to 2ft – and the combined wave energy is weak (4 to 115). Winds are often cross-offshore or glassy, but there’s just no muscle behind it. Water temp at Bridges is about 85°F, which is a touch warmer than average – feels like a warm bath.
The only window worth paddling is the morning of Sunday the 20th at Bridges (point). Swell bumps to 3ft from the north, with a 9-second period, giving moderate energy (138). Winds will be offshore from the southeast at 9 mph, keeping it clean. The break is inconsistent, so this is your best chance. Crowds are only sometimes a problem. It won’t be firing, but it’s surfable.
The afternoon holds similar energy (135) with an even lighter offshore breeze. That stretch on the 20th is your one shot. After that, it dries up again.
So yeah, mark the 20th if you’re keen. Otherwise, it’s a long wait for a pretty ordinary day. Typical for this area.
Rusty.

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