The Lowdown
G’day, I’m Rusty. Let’s chew the fat on what Droskyn Point has cookin’ in the next couple of weeks. It’s a bit of a rough start, so don’t rush. The water temp is about where it should be for the season.
We’re looking at Friday the 4th of September – rain showers and a stiff 16 mph WNW wind blowin’ cross-onshore. Swell is a messy 7ft from the west with a short 8-second gap. The combined energy is moderate at 632, but the wind is turning it into a washing machine. A total no-go. Saturday the 5th is a little lighter wind-wise but still cross-onshore, with 5ft of west swell at 11 seconds – that longer period promises better shape, but the wind’s still on it. Sunday the 6th cleans up nice with an offshore SE breeze at 16 mph, but the swell has dropped to a tiny 2ft from the west, and energy is only 85. Hardly enough to get excited about.
Monday the 7th brings a big pulse of west groundswell – 8ft with a very long 13-second period. That’s serious energy at 1912. But the 16 mph WNW wind is crankin’ right cross-onshore, totally trashing it. Tuesday the 8th is more of the same, with 8ft from the west-northwest on a shorter 9-second period, and winds onshore or cross-onshore up to 19 mph. That setup is more fun for kite surfers than paddle surfers. Wednesday the 9th through Thursday the 10th is a grind of 4ft to 7ft west swell with naughty cross-onshore winds.
Now, Wednesday the 16th of September is your golden ticket. The morning is dead glassy – 0 mph wind from the east-northeast, with a 4ft west swell at 11 seconds. The energy is moderate at 328, but the clean, offshore conditions on this point break will give you some sweet, lined-up rides. That’s the call of the whole period. The afternoon turns onshore again, so be in the water early. The following Friday the 18th is also promising – glassy in the afternoon with 3ft of west swell at 9 seconds. Small but clean. Saturday the 19th morning has a light offshore SE breeze and 3ft west swell with a 10-second period. Clean but tiny.
So, a long stretch of choppy, blown-out surf until about the 14th. The big standout is Wednesday the 16th morning. Don’t sleep on it.
Rusty.

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