The Lowdown

Alright, Rusty here. Let’s talk about what’s coming up for Duppys.

It’s a bit of a slow start for the next few days, but we’ve got a couple of windows worth getting excited about. The water’s sitting at a warm 84°, which is about what you’d expect for this time of year.

The first real action kicks off on the afternoon of Saturday, August 29th. We’ve got a 4ft swell pushing in from the ENE, with a short period of 7 seconds. The wind is swinging offshore from the ESE, so that’ll keep the surface clean. The combined energy is moderate at 226. It’s not gonna be huge, but it’ll be rideable and clean. Thursday, September 3rd, also has a little pulse in the morning and afternoon, with 4ft from the ENE and an 8-second period, and offshore winds from the E and ESE. The energy is moderate (139 and 171). These are surfable, but nothing to write home about.

Now, the standout here is Sunday, August 30th. The morning session is the one. We’re looking at a solid 7ft of swell from the ENE, with a 10-second period. That’s a decent groundswell with good energy, and the combined energy reading is a strong 854. The wind is blowing offshore from the ESE at 19 mph, so it’s gonna be clean and lined up. This is a reef break, and with that swell size, it’s got advanced written all over it. It’s not for beginners, but for the crew who know what they’re doing, this is the best looking window in the whole 16 days. The break is fairly consistent, though it can get a bit of a crowd sometimes, so get in early.

After that, it drops right off. From the 31st of August right through to the 13th of September, the waves are tiny and not worth paddling for. There are a few glimpses of waist-high slop on the 9th and 10th, but with the wind offshore, it’s still just ordinary. The long-range stuff around the 12th and 13th shows a bit more energy in the 2ft to 3ft range, but it’s still small and not going to fire. So, don’t hold your breath for the second week.

So, bottom line: Sunday morning, August 30th, at Duppys. That’s your call. The rest is a waiting game.

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.
