The Lowdown

Alright, Rusty here again. Let's break it down for the Damneck Naval Base area over the next sixteen days.

Honestly, it's a slow start. There's a big dry spell from now all the way through the 13th of September. We're talkin' tiny waves and messy conditions – not much to get excited about. On Thursday morning the 3rd, there's a little 0.6m SE swell with a clean offshore wind, but it's just surfable, nothin' special. The combined energy is weak (74). You'd be paddlin' for scraps.

The only real highlight, the one that stands out, is on the morning of Monday the 14th of September. The water is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year. That morning, we get a 6ft NE swell rollin' in under glassy, windless conditions. The period is short (6 seconds) and the combined energy is moderate (240). That 6ft is a solid wave for this spot, maybe a bit much for the absolute beginners, but for the rest of us, that's a clean, fun morning. The swell direction ain't the optimum ESE, but you take the glassy conditions any day. By afternoon, the cross-shore wind chops it up.

After that, the swell drops back fast. Tuesday the 15th morning has a clean 3ft ENE swell, but it's weak (79) and won't have the same push.

So, the one to circle is that Monday the 14th of September morning. Everything else is a quiet stretch. Keep an eye on it, things can turn around quick.

Rusty.

Information about the Damneck Naval Base Surf forecast

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