The Lowdown

Alright, this is Rusty coming at you from the beach. Let’s look at what’s on the table for Conto Springs over the next couple of weeks.

Honestly, it’s a slow start. The first few days are a bit of a write-off with messy, cross-onshore winds making a mess of a solid 7ft SW groundswell. Thursday the 10th and Friday the 11th have some size but the conditions are just too choppy and lumpy to get excited about. Saturday the 12th and Sunday the 13th are even worse, with strong winds and the swell jumping up to 12ft on Sunday, but it’s all blown out. A real shame, because there’s a lot of energy in the water – the combined energy is hitting over 10,000 (10067) on Sunday morning, which is massive, but it’s unsurfable.

The real turnaround hits on Monday the 14th. That’s the standout. The wind switches offshore from the ESE, cleaning up a powerful 12ft SW groundswell with a solid 14-second period. The combined energy is still very strong (5156). This is serious, expert-only territory. The wave energy is huge, and the offshore wind will have those lines holding up perfectly on the reef. It’s going to be a beast of a day. Tuesday the 15th keeps the offshore flow from the SSE, dropping slightly to 10ft, but still excellent and powerful. The 15th of September is your other big standout for experienced surfers.

Both Monday and Tuesday are light offshore, so expect clean, glassy conditions. The water temp is sitting at 64°, which is a touch warmer than normal for the time of year, so you won’t need a steamer.

The following week from Wednesday the 16th looks good, with cleaner conditions and dropping swell, but it’s the 20th and 21st that really catch my eye again. Sunday the 20th has a huge 13ft SW groundswell, with light ESE cross-offshore winds in the morning, and the combined energy is massive (7529). That is a world-class day for the brave. The 21st brings more of the same, with even cleaner offshore SSE winds in the afternoon. That’s a solid run of big, clean swell.

The final few days from the 22nd onwards get messy again with onshore and cross-onshore winds, so get on it while it’s good.

Conto Springs is a very consistent reef break, so it doesn’t stay flat for long. The crowds are sometimes a factor here, but with the size we’re talking about, it’ll thin out the pack. The 14th, 15th, and 20th are the absolute standouts. Get ready for some serious, heavy waves.

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.
