The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s shaping up for this stretch of coast.

The next couple of days are a bit of a slow start, but by Thursday morning we start to see a real pulse of energy. The window opens with a cleaner, longer-period swell that’s going to get the reef at Ekas-Outside working. The early part of the outlook is dominated by a South-Southwest to Southwest groundswell, and the water temp is sitting right where it should be for this time of year – nothing unusual there.

Thursday 27th August is where it gets interesting. The morning session sees a 4ft SSW swell with a very long 16-second period, and the combined energy is moderate but solid (1199). The wind is a gentle SSE breeze, so it’s cross-off but light – that’s going to keep the surface clean. The afternoon is a bit tricky with that 20-second period and only 3ft, but the energy is still there (1739). For a reef break, that long period groundswell is perfect – it won’t close out like it would on a beach.

The standout true winner is Friday 28th August. The morning brings a solid 8ft SSW swell, period of 17 seconds, and a very strong combined energy (4106). That’s a big, powerful, clean line coming through. The wind is cross-off from the SE, so it’s manageable. This is for experienced surfers only – 8ft is serious size, and the reef will be handling a lot of water. If you’ve got the skill, this is the best the forecast has to offer. The afternoon holds similar size, just a touch less energy.

Saturday 29th August morning is still excellent, with a 7ft SW swell, 15-second period, and good energy (1892). The wind is lighter SSE, so it’s going to be a sweet session for those who are comfortable with a solid overhead wave. The afternoon drops off a bit, but still rideable.

Through the end of August and into the first week of September, the swell stays in the 5ft to 7ft range, all from the SW or SSW, with periods between 14 and 18 seconds. The winds are a persistent cross-off from the SE to SSE, which isn’t ideal off-shore, but it’s not on-shore either. It’s a constant breeze that keeps the surface clean but not glassy. The energy stays moderate to strong (three-digit to four-digit range). The crowds here are “sometimes” – which means you might have company, but it’s not a zoo.

The second week, from September 5th onward, the swell holds steady around 6ft to 8ft, still from the SSW/SW, with periods around 14-17 seconds. The energy is still solid (up to 3775 by the 9th). The wind picks up a bit, becoming a fresh breeze in the afternoons, so mornings are your best bet. September 9th morning looks promising again, with a 6ft SW swell and very strong energy (2692), but the wind is a moderate cross-off.

Overall, the best window is the end of this week: Friday 28th and Saturday 29th August. That’s the big, clean, powerful swell you want to plan for. The rest of the stretch is consistent, but those two days are the standouts.

Rusty.

Information about the Ekas-Outside Surf forecast

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