The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on offer at Damneck Naval Base over the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, it’s a pretty grim stretch for paddle surfing. There’s a long, quiet gap stretching from now until the 8th of September, with nothing but tiny, onshore junk. The water is a balmy 81°, which is much warmer than normal for this time of year – feels like a bath out there, but the waves just aren’t cooperating.
The only real glimmer of hope in this whole outlook comes on Tuesday morning, the 8th of September. It’s not a standout by any stretch, but it’s the best we’ll see. We’ve got a clean, glassy morning with the wind so light it’s barely a whisper. The swell is coming from the ENE at a modest 2 ft, with a period of 10 seconds. The combined energy is weak (83). It’s surfable, but very ordinary. Don’t expect any power, and the crowd is likely to be around because there’s nothing else. If you’re a beginner, this is the window to get wet.
After that, the forecast falls apart again. Wednesday the 9th sees a bump to 2 ft from the SE with a 6-second period, and while the wind is cross-offshore, the energy is pitiful (49) and the waves are just messy. There’s a stormy Thursday the 10th with offshore wind from the WSW at 15 mph, but the swell is a pathetic 2 ft from the S (24 energy) – it’s more of a wind chop than a wave.
The second week is a total write-off. There’s a pulse of wind swell from the north around the 11th and 12th, hitting 5 ft, but the period is a short, weak 5 seconds and the wind is cross-shore or cross-on. The setup is so poor and choppy, it looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing. The energy levels are moderate (112) but the quality is non-existent.
From the 13th all the way through the 19th, it’s just tiny, onshore dribble or cross-shore chop. Nothing to get excited about. The only other mention is Thursday the 17th morning, with a clean 2 ft swell from the NE (43 energy) and light offshore wind, but again, it’s just surfable, not good.
Bottom line: there’s one very average morning on the 8th. After that, save your energy and wait for a proper swell.
Stay safe, Rusty.
