The Lowdown
G’day, Rusty here, checkin’ what’s on offer for the next couple weeks. It’s pretty sleepy out there for most of it—small waves, ordinary conditions, nothin’ to really fire you up. There’s one window that stands out if you’re willin’ to wait.
Hardly any action to start. This kicks off Tuesday morning, 4th of August, at Cibratel, but it’s tiny: 1 foot from the SE, 11-second period, wave energy a weak 50. Glassy wind, sure, but that’s it. Water temp’s runnin’ average for this time of year. That arvo turns onshore and gets uglier.
Wednesday the 5th sees a bit more—2 feet, same SE swell, glassy morning with light offshore—energy climbs to moderate 107, but it’s still shin-high. Thursday the 6th and Friday the 7th stay small, with Thursday glassy but weak. Swell direction goes east, periods are short, energy drops back under 100 Friday with messy cross-off wind.
Saturday the 8th perks up a touch arvo: 3 feet, SSE swell, long 14-second period, energy up to 270. But cross-onshore wind messes it up. Sunday the 9th hangs around the same—energy 277—with cross-shore wind and smallish waves.
Monday the 10th is a bust—rain, onshore wind, short 7-second period, energy down to 147. That grim pattern sticks for a few days. Tuesday the 11th is glassy but weak at 2 feet. Wednesday the 12th picks up to 4 feet from the ESE but with a pathetic 6-second period, and it’s cross-onshore and choppy. That’s kite-surf territory.
Now, Friday the 14th is the real gem. Mornin’ session at Cibratel: 3 feet from the SSE with a 15-second period—very long groundswell—and combined energy of 460, solid strong. Wind is dead calm, glassy. That’s the best wave of the run. That long period might make the beach break a little straight, but with that wind, you’ll score. No crowds likely.
After that, it fades again. Saturday 15th is 2 feet with a glassy start but goes onshore. Sunday 16th onward is mostly poor wind and weak energy. Tuesday the 18th hits 4 feet but from the east, short 6-second period, moderate breeze chopping it up.
Then Wednesday 19th morning pops up: 5 feet from the SSE, 9-second period, energy at 330—a solid moderate pulse. Glassy wind again. That’s the second-best window, but it’s a long way off, so keep a loose eye on it.
Overall, it’s a dry spell till that Friday the 14th. Get in there that mornin’, and maybe the 19th shapes up. Otherwise, just hang tight—forecasts can always turn.
Rusty.

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