The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a proper look at what's coming our way for Ekas-Outside. The outlook is a bit of a mixed bag, but there are some definite moments of magic on the horizon.

We've got a solid, long-period groundswell from the SSW lining up for the whole 16-day window. The first few days are a bit of a tease though. Thursday the 30th and Friday the 31st of July have clean lines but the wind is a bit stiff, a fresh cross-offshore breeze that'll keep the surface tidy but might make for a bit of a bumpy ride. The swell is a modest 3ft to 4ft with a very long period of 15 to 19 seconds. The combined energy is strong but not yet firing, sitting at 1529 to 1647. It's enough to get wet, but you'll be scratching for the good ones.

Then we get a window. Saturday morning, the 1st of August, is where it starts to get interesting. The wind drops right back to a gentle breeze, 15 km/h cross-off, and the swell pushes up to 5ft with a 16-second period. The energy is building at 1386. The forecast calls it excellent for experienced surfers, and for a reason. That's your best early call.

Sunday the 2nd of August sees the swell jump to a solid 7ft, still with the same long period and a gentle breeze. The energy is getting nice and chunky at 2306. This is proper reef-swell territory. It's getting into the size where it's for the more competent crew, but the quality will be there.

The middle of the week, from the 3rd to the 6th of August, the wind picks up again. It's still cross-off but fresh at 25-30 km/h. The swell hangs around 6ft to 8ft, and the energy is very strong, hitting 3202 on the 6th. The problem is that marginal tag. It's clean, but the wind is howling. For a reef break like this, that cross-off wind can actually be your friend, keeping the faces smooth, but at those speeds it's going to be a battle. Honestly, with that much wind and size, the setup might be more interesting for kite surfing than a standard paddle session.

Now, listen up. The real standout is the final weekend. Saturday the 8th of August is big, with 8ft swell and 30 km/h cross-off, and the energy is a massive 3074. That's expert territory. But the true prize is the 13th and 14th of August. Thursday the 13th kicks off with a 10ft SSW groundswell and a 18-second period, and the energy is huge at 6345. By Friday morning the 14th of August, we're looking at a 13ft beast with a 20-second period and an energy reading of 12623. The wind is a gentle 15 km/h cross-off. That is a world-class window. It's a long way out, so treat it as a promising but not guaranteed beast, but if it lines up, Ekas-Outside will be absolutely pumping. That is the only day in the whole run that gets a score worthy of a true standout. The water is about average for the time of year, no big anomalies to worry about.

The crowd at Ekas-Outside can be a factor sometimes, so for that big Friday, get there early. This is a fairly consistent spot, and it tends to deliver. So while the first week is a bit of a grind with the wind, that second week looks like it could be the stuff of legend.

Stay stoked, and don't be late for that Friday session.

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.

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.
