The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's on offer for the Sardinian coast around Buggerru.
Honestly, mate, it's a rough start. We're looking at a solid two weeks of almost nothing. From today, the 11th of August, right through until the morning of the 19th, it's pretty much flat or close to it. The odd tiny ripple from the NNW won't be worth paddling for. The water is a balmy 83°, which is much warmer than usual for this time of year, but that's the only positive for a while.
Finally, on the morning of Wednesday, the 19th of August, things change. A proper NW groundswell fills in, pushing in at 6ft with a period of 9 seconds. That's a mid-range period, so it'll have some shape to it. The combined energy jumps right up to 554 (moderate wave energy), and the wind is light from the ENE, making for a clean, cross-off breeze. That's a solid combination.
The afternoon gets a bit bigger, with the swell hitting 8ft, but the wind swings around to a gusty 12 mph from the SSE. That's still cross-off, but it's getting strong. That morning session is the standout. After that, the swell drops off and the wind turns onshore, so it's back to poor conditions.
The only other blip is a tiny WSW swell on the 23rd and 24th, but it's only 1ft with a short period and cross-onshore winds. Not worth getting excited about.
So, the call is simple. Forget the next week and a half. The one true standout is Buggerru on the morning of Wednesday, 19th August. Get there early for the cleanest waves with that NW swell.
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.
