Campus Point Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright, this is Rusty. Let's have a look at what's cookin' over the next couple of weeks.

Honestly, folks, it's a bit of a flat spell ahead. We've got a long stretch of small, weak energy on the way. The first real standout doesn't show up for over a week, so don't get your hopes up for any firing sessions in the short term.

The first decent chance rolls around on Sunday, September 20th. Campus Point is the spot. It's a point break, so it can handle a bit of direction, and we're looking at a light offshore breeze. The swell's coming from the southwest at about 2 feet. It's not big, but it's clean. The wave energy is moderate, around 373, and for this place, that's something to keep an eye on. The water's sitting at about 71°F, which is much warmer than usual for this time of year, so you might not need the thickest wetsuit. Crowds are often a thing here, so expect company.

Then Monday, September 21st afternoon looks like another clean window, with the same small southwest swell and a gentle offshore breeze. Again, it's nothing massive, but it's surfable and clean.

After that, it drops right back down again. We get another small bump on Tuesday the 22nd afternoon – same story, clean conditions with a tiny southwest swell. But for the rest of the run into the end of the month, we're looking at very ordinary, small surf with a lot of poor conditions. The energy levels are low, dipping below 200, and there's a lot of cross-shore wind in the mix.

The long-range stuff into the last week of September is just tiny. The swell period starts to get up a bit, but the height is only around 1 feet. A few of those afternoons might have a clean look to them, but you'll be working hard for a ride.

So, the pick of the bunch is that Sunday the 20th through Tuesday the 22nd, but don't expect any barrels. It's a case of small, clean, and crowded. For the rest, it's a waiting game. Forecasts can change, but right now, this run is looking pretty flat.

Rusty.
