The Lowdown

Alright, Rusty here. Let’s talk about what’s happening at Duppys.

First few days are a slow starter. There’s a bit of swell but it’s small and the wind is working against it.

Friday 28th August – forget it. Only 2ft of NE swell, gusty 30 km/h E wind, and the wave energy is weak. Saturday 29th August is where you get the first real chance. Morning’s still a bit average with a short-period 4ft NE windswell, but by Saturday afternoon, things improve. We’ve got a clean 4ft+ swell from the ENE, wind drops to a gentle 15 km/h offshore from the E. The surface will be glassy, and the energy is moderate. It’s a decent session.

The big one is Sunday 30th August. The Sunday morning session is the standout. Look at this: a solid 7ft swell from the ENE, clean 25 km/h offshore wind from the ESE, and a strong energy reading. There’s proper power in the water. The afternoon will be similar but the morning has the best combo of size and wind. This is for experienced surfers only; beginners will find it challenging.

Then it goes quiet. From Monday 31st August right through to Thursday 3rd September, the swell drops to nothing. We’re talking less than 1ft of N swell, almost no energy. That’s a solid 4-day dead spell.

Thursday 3rd September afternoon shows a tiny pulse of 3ft ENE swell, but it’s weak and short-period. Another empty run from Friday 4th September to Tuesday 8th September – just flat small waves.

A promising but distant option shows up on Wednesday 9th September, which is over a week away. There’s a 4ft N groundswell with a very long 12-second period and clean offshore wind. The energy is moderate. That long period means the reef should handle it better than the beach, but it’s a long way out so keep an eye on it.

The rest of the outlook through Saturday 12th September is small and ordinary. Nothing compared to that Sunday 30th August pulse.

Bottom line: Sunday 30th August morning is the pick – 7ft ENE swell, clean offshore wind, plenty of energy. For the experienced surfer only. Everything else is either flat or marginal.

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.
