The Lowdown
Alright mates, Rusty here. Let’s break down the next couple of weeks at Ekas-Outside.
The water’s sitting at a comfortable 80°, right where it should be for this time of year, so an average wetsuit call—shorts or a light top.
There’s a long stretch of surf coming, but it’s not a standout period of perfection. It’s more about consistent, solid groundswell that’s a bit held back by the wind. The swell is coming out of the SSW, which is exactly what this reef is built to handle, so the wave shape will be decent.
The real highlight is coming up on Monday, August 11th, during the afternoon. You’ve got a solid 10ft groundswell from the SSW with a super-long 19-second period. The wave energy is roaring at 7849, which is strong stuff. Wind is cross-off from the SSE at 15 mph, so it’s not glassy, but it’s clean enough. That’s the best window—powerful, fast lines. With waves over 8ft, this is expert-only territory.
The following morning, Tuesday the 12th, still has 10ft at 17 seconds (5075 energy) but same wind profile. A close second.
After that punch, the swell drops to a consistent 5ft to 8ft range for the rest of the outlook, with cross-off winds keeping things rideable but never perfect. The periods stay long (14-17 seconds), so that reef will create some nice peeling walls. Crowds are possible here. It won’t be empty.
For a reef that can handle these long-period groundswells, you’ll get some proper down-the-line waves. The 11th afternoon is your best shot for a serious session.
Rusty, signing off.

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.
