The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's on the menu for Buggerru over the next couple of weeks.
Right off the bat, I gotta be straight with you – this is a tough one. The forecast is showing a whole lot of nothing for the first ten days or so. There's a long dry spell here. From the 27th of July right through until the 5th of August, the surf is pretty much flat or just too small and messy to bother with. You'll see some tiny waves, but the energy is weak, and the wind is all over the place. It's a proper blank run for this area.
But hold on. There's a little glimmer of hope tucked away in the second week. The first real chance to get wet comes on the morning of Thursday, the 6th of August. The swell picks up to 4ft from the NW, and the energy jumps to a moderate 160, which is a welcome change. The real kicker is the wind: it's dead calm, glassy. That's a major positive. The water here is going to be glassy-smooth. The water temperature is sitting at 82°, which is much warmer than normal for this time of year, so you won't need a thick wetsuit.
For a break that's usually inconsistent, this is a rare treat. The swell direction is from the NW, which is the optimum direction for the spot. The morning of the 6th is the standout window. It's not huge, but it's clean and rideable.
After that, Friday the 7th of August morning also shows some promise. We've got a 3ft swell from the NNW with glassy conditions and moderate energy (94). It's a similar story: clean but ordinary. The period is short, around 7 seconds, so it won't be all that powerful, but for a paddle on a glassy morning, you could do worse.
The only other half-decent window is the morning of Saturday the 8th of August. The swell is 3ft from the NNW, with a light cross-offshore breeze (ENE) making it clean. The energy is still moderate at 70.
So, to sum it up: the first week and a half is a write-off. If you're keen, your best bet is the morning of Thursday the 6th of August. The glassy conditions and the best swell of the period make it the true standout. Keep your fingers crossed.
Rusty.

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