The Lowdown

G’day, Rusty here. Well, I’ve had a look at the charts for Buggerru, and I gotta be straight with ya – it’s a grim run for the next 16 days. This is a beach-and-pier setup that’s exposed to the swell, but it’s inconsistent, and for the advanced crew only when it does show. The first couple of weeks are a write-off, so don’t be in a rush.

From Tuesday the 28th of July right through to Saturday the 8th of August, it’s a total desert. The swell is tiny or non-existent, with combined energy barely reaching a whisper (138 for the biggest pulse, and that’s still rated as poor). You’ll see a few mornings with glassy conditions, like Thursday the 30th of July and Friday the 31st, but the swell is 1 ft or less from the NW or NNW, with periods around 4-5 seconds. That’s just wind slop, not worth paddling out for. The wind’s mostly light and cross-shore or onshore, which would be fine if there was any wave, but there isn’t. Water temp is about average for the time of year, so no complaints there.

The first flicker of something comes on Sunday the 9th of August morning. We’ve got a 4 ft swell from the NW with a period of 8 seconds, and combined energy climbing to 209 (moderate). The wind is light cross-shore from the north, so conditions are clean. But the wave comment says “marginal surf,” and this is a tricky break that’s inconsistent – it’s only a 1/10 rating, so don’t get your hopes up. It might be a fun little session for the experts, but it’s not a standout.

Then on Wednesday the 12th of August morning, we see the biggest pulse of the whole period: 5 ft from the NW with a period of 8 seconds, and combined energy at 314 (moderate). That’s a solid head-high plus for the advanced crew, and the wind is a gentle cross-shore from the north, so it’ll be reasonably clean. The period is short, so it’ll be a bit bumpy and close together, but for Buggerru, this is the best on offer. The catch is that crowds are often here, so expect company. Still, it’s the only real window – the rest of the period is flat or poor.

So, the best bet is Wednesday the 12th of August morning at Buggerru. It’s not a guarantee, but if you’re an experienced surfer, it’s your only shot. The 5 ft NW swell with light cross-shore wind should give you a few fun ones. The rest of the month is a waiting game. Forecasts can change, but for now, it’s a long dry spell.

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.
