The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what the next couple of weeks are serving up at Fare Left. This is a solid, advanced-level reef break that’s exposed to the SW, and it’s going to be the main show for a while. The water temp is sitting at 80°F, pretty much bang on average for this time of year – no surprises there.

The first real surfable option kicks off on Monday morning, the 7th of September. We’ve got a clean 3-ft SSW groundswell, with a nice long 12-second period pushing in. The wind is off from the ENE at 12 mph, which creates moderate offshore and clean conditions. Combined wave energy is moderate (299), so a decent start. That same set-up holds through the afternoon too.

Tuesday the 8th is a drop in size – 2-ft in the morning, and while the wind is still offshore, the energy is weak (157). Not really worth getting out of bed for. Tuesday afternoon gets interesting though: a sudden jump in period to 19 seconds from the SW, and the combined energy spikes to 599 (moderate). But the swell height is still only 2-ft, and the wind is a fresh offshore at 19 mph. It’s clean, but that short-period energy on a small swell is a tease. I’d say wait.

Wednesday the 9th and Thursday the 10th keep the swell around 3-ft to 4-ft, with a cross-off wind from the SE. The period stays long (14-17 seconds), and the energy is moderate to strong (508-770). However, the quality is only marginal – something feels off with the tide or the shape. You’ll find waves, but it’s not the standout stuff.

Now, Friday the 11th morning is where I start getting stoked. 2-ft SW swell, 14-second period, and offshore wind from the ESE at 12 mph. It’s clean, moderate offshore, and the energy is moderate (255). The quality is good. It’s not huge, but for a clever reef like Fare Left, that’s plenty of juice.

But the real standouts – the ones you circle on the calendar – start on Sunday the 13th. Sunday morning brings 3-ft SSW groundswell with a 20-second period. That’s a very long period, and it’s pushing moderate-to-strong energy (707). Winds are light offshore from the ENE at 9 mph. The water will be glassy. Then Sunday afternoon gets better: 4-ft SSW swell, 19-second period, and the combined energy jumps to 1009 (strong). Wind is a light breeze from the E at 6 mph. This is the best of the first week. For a reef break like this, that long-period SW groundswell will wrap in beautifully.

Monday the 14th keeps the fire burning. Morning sees 5-ft SW swell at 17 seconds with light offshore E winds at 6 mph. The energy is very strong (1569). That’s solid, powerful surf. The afternoon drops a touch to 4-ft, but still excellent. Do note: at 5-ft, this is getting into the “not for beginners” range, and by 6-ft it’s for experts only.

Tuesday the 15th pushes into 6-ft from the SSW, but the wind swings to a cross-shore from the S at 9-12 mph, bringing a slight cross-chop. The energy is through the roof (2125), but the wind ruins the surface a bit. It’s still surfable, but not the pristine conditions of the previous days.

From Wednesday the 16th through to Friday the 18th, the swell stays solid (5-ft to 6-ft) but the wind is a persistent cross-off from the SE at 16-19 mph. The energy remains high (921-1542), but conditions are only marginal. It’s big, it’s powerful, but it’s not super clean – you’ll be battling the chop. This stuff is for experienced surfers only at these sizes.

Then we hit a wall. From Saturday the 19th all the way through to Tuesday the 22nd of September, the swell drops down to 3-ft – 5-ft, but the wind is strong (19-25 mph) and mostly offshore. The combined energy is moderate (314-741), but conditions are rated as poor or marginal. The wind is just too strong to make it enjoyable; even with offshore wind, it’s hard to paddle into and the surface will be messy.

The Be-All and End-All:
If you’ve got one session to nail this fortnight, make it Sunday afternoon, the 13th of September, or Monday morning, the 14th of September. Sunday gives you 4-ft of long-period SSW groundswell, glassy conditions with light 6 mph offshore wind, and strong energy (1009). Monday morning is bigger at 5-ft, with the same light offshore wind and very strong energy (1569). Both are excellent, clean, and the best quality of the entire outlook. Come Tuesday the 15th, the size is still there, but the cross-shore wind will chop it up.

Rusty, signing out.

Information about the Fare Left Surf forecast

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