The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's on the cards for Ekas-Outside.
Right off the bat, it’s a bit of a slow burn. We’re looking at a run of days where the conditions are just... there. Nothing to write home about from Monday 27th July through to Friday 31st July. The swell is mostly coming from the SE with a bit of cross-off wind. The numbers are low, with combined energy readings in the 600 to 1500 range – that’s weak to moderate, and the comments tell you it’s marginal. You’d be mad to paddle out for the most part, it’s just not worth the effort. That’s a solid four-day gap with no real standouts.
Now, look sharp for the morning of Saturday the 1st of August. This is where the magic tries to happen. We’ve got a light breeze from the ESE, a 5 ft SSW groundswell with a long 16-second period, and the energy is up at 1386. The forecast is calling it “excellent surf conditions for experienced surfers”. That’s the standout right there. The water temp is a warm 80°, about average for this time of year. That clean, 5 ft SSW groundswell on a reef set-up with light winds – that’s the one to aim for.
After that, from Sunday the 2nd through to Tuesday the 11th of August, expect a building swell. We’re talking 6 ft to 8 ft SSW groundswells running with periods between 14 and 18 seconds. The energy readings are strong to very strong, hitting four-digit numbers like 2413 and even 4320. But here's the catch – it’s got that persistent cross-off wind. For a reef break, a bit of cross-off can work, but it's always going to be a battle. The wave comments are mostly "marginal" or "questionable tide conditions". The real size kicks off around the 6th/7th of August, with 7 ft to 8 ft swells, but at those heights it’s really only for the experienced crew. Anything over 8 ft like we see on the 8th of August is expert territory.
If I had to pick one session to drive for, it’s that Saturday 1st August morning. It’s the only time the stars truly align for a clean, manageable, and quality wave. The rest of the period has size and energy, but it’s never quite perfect.

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.
