The Lowdown

Alright, let’s see what we’ve got here. To be honest, the next sixteen days are looking pretty flat for Duppys. It’s a real bummer. There’s nothing on the table that I’d call a proper surf. The first real sniff of anything rideable doesn’t show up until Thursday, September 3rd, with a tiny 3ft pulse from the ENE, but even that is weak – with combined energy at just 91, it is weak, and it’s messy. The wind is cross-off, so it’s clean, but the swell is just too small and short period to get excited about.

Then Friday the 4th sees a little bump in energy, hitting 138 in the afternoon (that's moderate wave energy), but the swell is only 4ft and still a short 8-second period from the ENE. The wind is cross-off again, but with a risk of thunderstorms, it's not going to be a fun session. It’s still a poor surf.

The only days that even register as “surfable” are the Thursday the 3rd afternoon and Saturday the 5th, with both morning and afternoon having a shot at some tiny, weak waves. But these are just ordinary conditions. The swell is barely 3ft to 3ft, and it’s short-period windswell. The wind on Saturday morning turns offshore (ESE), which is a good sign for clean faces, but the wave energy is still low at 68 and 113.

After that, it’s pretty much a total flat spell from Sunday the 6th right through to the end of the outlook on Wednesday the 16th. There’s a tiny bump of 4ft from the ENE on Monday the 7th afternoon, but it’s a junky 7-second period with a cross-off wind and the combined energy is only 166. Still poor. The rest of the days are a mix of nothing or tiny 1ft to 1ft dribble with gusty winds.

Look, for a break that’s exposed to the north and is a reef setup – it needs a proper swell to get going. With the optimum swell direction being from the north and we’re seeing mostly ENE and NNE pulses, it’s just not matching up at all. The water temperature is about average for this time of year, so no surprises there.

If you’re desperate, maybe paddle out on Saturday the 5th morning – the ESE offshore wind will give you the cleanest surface on those tiny 3ft waves. But don’t expect much. Honestly, this stretch is a write-off for Duppys. For paddle surfing, there’s nothing on the cards. If the wind picks up and there’s a bump that’s too messy, it might be a better look for the kite crew, but for a surfer, it’s a hard pass.

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.
