Dee Dees Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright, let’s get into it.

We’re looking at Dee Dees, and I gotta be straight with you—this is a tough stretch. The water’s sitting at 54°, which is pretty normal for this time of year, so no surprises there. But the surf? It’s a long wait for anything worthwhile.

The first real chance of a session doesn’t come until Sunday morning, the 30th of August. Even then, it’s small—only 2ft of swell from the SSW, with a short period of 9 seconds and weak energy (108). The wind is light and cross-offshore though, so it’ll be clean. Surfable, but ordinary.

Then there’s a big gap. Monday the 31st of August morning has a massive 12ft SSW swell with a long 13-second period and very strong energy (3912)—but it’s way too big for this break. That’s expert-only territory, and even then, the wind is only moderate. Not worth it.

After that, it’s a desert of poor conditions until Wednesday the 2nd of September morning. That morning brings a 6ft SSW swell, 12-second period, moderate energy (1069), and clean conditions with light offshore wind. It’s still only marginal, but it’s the best we’ve got in this whole window. The swell direction from the SSW is okay for Dee Dees, which is a reef setup that likes swell from the south.

The next best might be Saturday the 12th of September afternoon. There’s a 3ft S swell, 12-second period, weak energy (364), but the wind goes glassy—dead calm. That’s clean, but small. The score for that session is weak, but it’s the only glassy window in the whole forecast.

Honestly, there’s no standout here. The consistent theme is strong winds, messy chop, and poor surf quality. If you’re desperate, keep an eye on Wednesday the 2nd of September morning for the best chance of a clean-ish wave, but don’t expect much. The rest of the 16 days is mostly a write-off.
