The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Gotta be straight with you – the next couple of weeks look pretty grim for Buggerru. We’re looking at a long, flat stretch before we even get a sniff of anything rideable.
Let’s get the bad news out of the way first. From now all the way through to Monday, the 14th of September, it’s a total write-off. The water is a warm 82°F which is much warmer than normal for this time of year, but that’s about the only positive. The combined energy readings are all in the weak zone, with numbers like 0 and 4, and the forecast calls for poor surf conditions day after day. Don’t even bother paddling out.
We finally see a tiny flicker of hope on Tuesday morning, the 15th of September. The swell direction is from the NW at 4ft with a period of 7 seconds – not a classic groundswell, but it’s something. The combined energy is a weak 99, and the wind is a light cross-offshore from the east, making things clean. The report says "surfable waves but very ordinary conditions," so we’re talking about knee-high, weak waves for the dedicated. It’s an inconsistent spot, so don’t expect much.
After that, it’s back to the doldrums. The rest of the week and into the next is a desert of tiny swell and onshore winds. The only other date that might give you a reason to look is Tuesday morning, the 22nd of September. We get a different swell direction from the WSW at 3ft with a period of 8 seconds, and a combined energy of 125 – that’s moderate energy, the best in the whole forecast. The wind is glassy, dead calm from the NE. The report says "surfable waves but very ordinary conditions" again, so it’s likely small, clean, but very weak. For a break that’s inconsistent and rarely offers much, it’s your best bet of the whole window.
The true standout? Honestly, there isn’t one. If you’re desperate, the Tuesday morning the 22nd is the only time with a glassy surface and a little bit of moderate energy. But keep your expectations in the gutter. It’s a tough run for a spot that’s already inconsistent.
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.
Buggerru is 16 km (10 miles) from Iglesias. If you plan a holiday in Sardinia, look for hotels and other accommodation in Iglesias. Iglesias has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
