The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on the cards for the next couple of weeks.
Right off the bat, we’ve got a solid run of SSW swell lining up for Ekas-Outside, a reef set-up that’s fairly consistent and pretty exposed to the action. The water temp is sitting about average for this time of year, so nothing weird there. The trade-off is that the wind is gonna be a persistent cross-off from the SSE for most of the run, which keeps things clean but not perfectly glassy. The swell is hanging around the 5 ft to 8 ft range for most of the first week, with periods that swing from 14 seconds up to a very long 19 seconds on Tuesday the 8th. That long period groundswell is a real treat for a reef, giving you proper lines and energy, though the combined energy is strong (2754) and builds into the week. The catch is the tides and conditions have it marked as marginal, so you’ll want to pick your banks.
The real standout window starts to shape up from Saturday the 12th. Saturday afternoon sees the swell dip to 5 ft from the SW, with a 14-second period, and the wind drops to a gentle breeze from the SE. That’s the best call for a cleaner session, and the energy is still solid (1566). Then Saturday the 19th and Sunday the 20th look like the big guns. Saturday the 19th has 8 ft of SW swell, 16 seconds, and a very strong energy reading (3427). That’s getting into expert territory—over 8 ft is for the crew who know what they’re doing, especially on a reef. Sunday the 20th morning is the biggest of the run: 10 ft from the SW, a very long 21-second period, and a massive 6923 combined energy. That’s a serious groundswell. It’s going to be a raw, powerful beast, best left for the experienced surfers, and the wind will be a moderate breeze from the SE, so still cross-off, not perfect. There’s a chance of crowds here, as it’s a spot that can get busy.
In the second week, the swell holds but the wind picks up a bit, especially on the 15th and 16th with 19 mph breezes. The best quality in that later stretch looks like Friday the 18th afternoon: 7 ft from the SSW, 16 seconds, and a gentle breeze. That’s a strong, clean option, though the energy is strong (2431). Overall, the standout is Saturday the 12th for the cleaner conditions, and Sunday the 20th for the raw power if you’re up for it. Keep in mind, the long-range stuff like the 20th is promising but less certain.
Stay safe out there.

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.
