The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you: this outlook is a tough one for Damneck Naval Base. We’ve got a long, flat patch ahead, so don’t get your hopes up too early.
The next week and a half is looking pretty bleak. The only real pulse of energy we see is a moderate swell showing up around Monday, the 7th of September, with combined energy readings of 123 to 126 (moderate). That’s about the only time the ocean wakes up, but conditions are still messy.
For the standout, if you’re desperate for a paddle, check Damneck Naval Base around Monday the 7th. The swell is coming from the ENE at 3ft with a 9-second period. That’s a short period wind swell, so don’t expect much grunt. The morning of the 7th has a light cross-onshore wind from the SE, which will keep things a bit lumpy. The afternoon is a cross-shore breeze from the SSE, which is cleaner but still rough. It’s really not great, but it’s the best we’ve got.
The water temperature is sitting at 80°F, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, so at least you won’t need a thick wetsuit.
After that, it drops off again. The next time you see anything even remotely surfable isn’t until the morning of Monday the 14th of September, with a tiny 1ft ESE swell and a light cross-offshore SSW breeze. That’s clean, but the energy is weak (49 combined). It’s a two-week wait for that.
Basically, this is a long stretch of poor surf. The break is fairly consistent, but the swells just aren’t cooperating. For a beginner spot, those tiny waves might be okay, but for anyone else, it’s a bust. The 16-day window is a write-off for proper waves. Forecasts can change, but right now, I’d find something else to do.
Rusty.

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 Damneck Naval Base 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.
