The Lowdown
The only break worth talking about is Calita, a reef setup that’s exposed to the ESE. It’s an inconsistent spot and tends to be only for beginners when it’s small. The water temp is sitting at a very unusual 28° for this time of year—much warmer than average, so ditch the steamer.
The first real flicker of anything comes on Sunday morning, August 30th. We get a tiny 0.9m ESE swell with a period of 6 seconds and a low combined energy of just 68. The wind is a light cross-off from the NE, which will keep the surface clean. It’s surfable, but it’s weak and ordinary. This is honestly the best on offer in the whole outlook, but it’s nothing to write home about. The afternoon gets a little more size at 1.0m but the wind turns cross-shore, making it choppy.
Monday morning, August 31st could be a glassy dawn patrol with 0.7m of ESE swell, but again, that period is short at 6 seconds and energy is low at 39. It’s a small, weak wave. The break is inconsistent by nature, so expect plenty of waiting between sets. Crowds are possible here sometimes, but with conditions this lackluster, you might have it to yourself.
After that, the run of poor surf kicks back in. We get a few more days of nada or tiny surf with onshore winds. There’s a little bump on Thursday morning, September 3rd, with 0.8m from the E and clean cross-off winds from the NE, but again, a short 5-second period and weak 36 energy. It’s not doing much.
Saturday morning, September 5th is another dawnie with glassy conditions and 0.8m of ESE swell, but the wind is light from the W. Still, the wave quality isn’t there to make it a standout.
All in all, there’s no proper swell in the forecast. The energy values are all below 100—weak, weak, weak. The best chance for a clean but tiny wave is Sunday August 30th morning or Monday August 31st morning. Anything beyond that is a lottery for the second week, and the models are less certain. For a reef that’s inconsistent, this blank run is pretty normal.
Stay patient, keep the board waxed, and hope the charts look better next week.

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