The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's take a long, hard look at what's on offer for us at Carrubo over the next couple of weeks. I gotta be straight with you, it's a grim picture.
Right now, and for the foreseeable future, we are looking at a whole lot of nothing. The surf is flat, or close to it, with only the tiniest scraps of energy showing up. The first real bump we see is on Wednesday the 26th of August, but it’s nothing to get excited about. We’re talking a weak 2 ft swell out of the SSW with a short period of 6 seconds and a combined energy of just 24. That's not a wave, that's a ripple. The wind is a cross-shore from the east at 9 mph, which just messes up what little shape there might be.
The water temperature here is sitting at 85°, which is a whopping 5° warmer than average for this time of year. That’s very unusual, so you can leave the wetsuit at home. It’s a shame the waves aren't cooperating with the warm water.
That Wednesday morning is probably the "best" we see, and I use that term loosely. By Thursday the 27th, we're back down to 0.7 ft. There’s a window on Saturday the 29th morning with a 1 ft SSW swell and a clean cross-offshore breeze from the WNW at 12 mph, but again, the energy is a measly 10. It’ll be a glassy little thing, but only a longboard or a foil could make it work.
After that, it’s another long stretch of flatness right into the first week of September. The odd 0.7 ft bump pops up on Tuesday the 1st of September afternoon, but the period is a dismal 3 seconds and the wind is onshore. You’d be better off at the swimming pool.
The next faint glimmer is Friday the 4th of September morning with a clean offshore breeze from the north, but the swell is a pathetic 0.7 ft from the ESE. The following days offer nothing but flat calm or small, choppy slop.
Honestly, for the whole 16-day run, Carrubo is a write-off. This is a beginner-friendly spot that is fairly exposed, but it needs more push than this. With the wind and the tiny, weak swells we’re seeing, this setup honestly looks more interesting for a kite than a paddle board. There’s just no energy in the water.
Keep your boards waxed and your eyes on the charts. It tends not to stay this poor for long, but right now, we’re in a flat spell.
Rusty.

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