The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's on the cards for the next couple of weeks. It's a bit of a quiet stretch overall, so keep your expectations in check.

Right out of the gate, it's not looking great. We've got a long stretch of tiny, weak surf. From now right through to the middle of next week, the swell is just not delivering. We're talking small dribbles of 0.7 ft to 1.0 ft from the NNE, with a combined wave energy that barely gets into double digits. It's poor, it's flat, and honestly, there's nothing to get excited about. You might get a clean surface with the offshore winds, but there's no power behind it to push you down the line.

Now, the first real sign of life pops up on Wednesday the 26th of August, but don't get your hopes up. The morning shows a jump to 5 ft from the ENE, with a combined energy of 322, which is moderate. The catch? It's still being called poor surf conditions. The period is a short 8 seconds, so it'll be a bit crumbly and weak. Thursday the 27th sees some long-period groundswell arrive, 2 ft at 13 seconds from the NE, with 140 energy. It's clean, but still small and the conditions are marked as poor. It's not the kind of day you'd rush out for.

Finally, on Saturday the 29th of August, we get the best of what this forecast has to offer. The morning swell builds to 5 ft from the NE with a combined energy of 324, and the afternoon gets even better with 6 ft from the ENE and a combined energy of 409. That's moderate to strong energy. The period is a short 8 seconds again, so it won't be the most powerful, but it's the biggest swell in the run. The wind is cross-off from the ENE, so it should be clean. This is your best chance to get a few waves, but with that short period, Duppys can get a bit messy. Still, if you're keen, that's the day.

After that, it drops right back off into tiny, weak surf from the 30th of August all the way to the end of the window. Another long gap with nothing to recommend.

So, to be honest, there's no standout, world-class session in this window. The pick of a pretty average bunch is definitely Saturday the 29th of August. The swell is there, the wind is offshore enough to keep it clean, and the energy is the highest we'll see. It's not perfect, but it's the only time the numbers really come together for a surf.

Rusty.

Information about the Duppys Surf forecast

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