The Lowdown

Alright, Rusty here. Let’s get into the outlook for Conto Springs.

Right off the bat, the water is sitting at 65°F – that’s a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, by about a degree and a half, so you’re not needing the thickest rubber just yet. The overall pattern kicks off with a heap of energy, but the early part of the week is full of mood swings with the wind.

The first real standout window is Thursday afternoon, the 2nd of September. The wind is a light, clean cross-off from the SSW at 9 mph, with a solid 12 ft SW swell rolling in at a juicy 13 seconds and 4023 units of combined energy. It’s clean and lined up for experienced surfers. That big 13 ft pulse on Friday morning hits 16 ft and gets messy with strong onshore wind, so that’s a pass.

The real highlight of the whole forecast is Sunday afternoon, the 6th of September. This is the one. You’ve got a 15 ft SW groundswell with a very long 17-second period, pumping out 12915 combined energy. The wind is SSE offshore at 16 mph, making it clean and powerful. This is exceptional for expert surfers only – it’s big, long-period, and will be breaking straight on the beach, but at a reef like Conto Springs, that long period translates to thick, dedicated lines. The crowd factor is a possibility, but on a wave this size, there’ll be plenty of water moving.

That clean streak carries through Monday the 7th and Tuesday the 8th with morning offshores (SSE and SE, 6-9 mph) and consistent 12-13 ft SW swell at 16 seconds. Excellent conditions for experienced surfers on Monday, and still very good on Tuesday morning.

After that, there’s an onshore chop-up around the 10th and 11th, but the next standout appears on Saturday the 12th of September. The morning is absolutely glassy – zero wind – with a 13 ft SW swell at 16 seconds and 6895 combined energy. That’s a dream scenario for the reef: clean, glassy, and pumping. It’s still big enough for experts only though.

The run of good surf fades through the middle of the second week, but there’s a final chance on Monday morning the 14th of September with a glassy 10 ft SW swell, and again on Wednesday the 16th of September where the morning sees a glassy 7 ft SW swell. Both of those are clean and excellent for experienced surfers, though the energy starts to drop off as we head toward the end of the window.

Overall, the main standouts are Sunday the 6th and Saturday the 12th – both big, powerful, and clean with offshore or glassy conditions. Everything else is either too blown out or needs a careful tide check. Get on it if you can handle the size.

Information about the Conto Springs Surf forecast

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