The Lowdown
Alright, let's be real here. The next couple of weeks are looking pretty bleak. We've got a long stretch of tiny, weak surf and a lot of poor conditions. Don't expect much for a while; you'll be looking at a run of days with nothing rideable for the most part, before we see a slight pulse of energy at the very end of the forecast.
This is one of those times where you gotta be patient, or find another way to get your fix.
We kick things off on the 15th with nothing. The 16th and 17th have ankle-biters at 0.7ft, with a weak period of 3 seconds and almost no energy behind it (1). Not worth your time. Thursday the 17th afternoon has a tiny bump to 1ft, but it’s onshore and chopped up. Forget it. Friday the 18th shows a bit more swell, 2ft, but it’s messy with a cross-shore wind, and the energy is still weak at (29).
Saturday the 19th morning is the first slight glimmer of hope. It’s clean with a light east cross-offshore breeze, but the swell is still only 2ft at 5 seconds. It’s small, gutless, and weak (37). You might get a groveler out, but it’s not going to be pretty. The rest of that weekend and into the following week is more of the same – tiny, weak, and mostly unrideable. There's a lot of days with zero surf on offer here. We're looking at a solid run of poor options from the 15th right through to the 28th.
There is a bit of a pulse for the end of the month, though. On Monday the 29th, the swell picks up to 3ft from the west with a slightly better 5-second period and the energy jumps up to (69). The wind is cross-onshore, so it’ll be a bit lumpy, but it’s the most surfable we’ve seen. The standout is shaping up to be Wednesday the 30th of September. It’s the pick of the run. We’ve got 3ft of west-southwest swell, a 6-second period, and the wind goes glassy. The energy is moderate at (54), and with those conditions, it’ll be the cleanest the place has looked in a fortnight.
You’ll find me out there on the 30th on the high tide hoping for a few shoulders. It’s not going to be epic, but it’ll be the best we get. The water is running at 81° right now, which is a whopping 7° warmer than normal for this time of year. That’s seriously unusual – you won’t need a wetsuit, just boardies.
Don't hold your breath for the rest of it. This stretch is mostly for the patient.
