The Lowdown

Alright lads, Rusty here. Let’s chew the fat on what’s coming for Fare Left.

It’s a long-range forecast that needs a bit of patience. There’s plenty of swell energy on the horizon, but the wind is going to be the main character for a while.

The first weekend, starting Saturday 22 August, is a bit of a struggle. We’ve got a 7ft SSW swell, but the wind is a stiff 22 mph from the SSE, laying it over. The energy is there (1794), but it’s a cross-off mess. Sunday the 23rd pushes up to 8ft by the afternoon, with a very long 16-second period and massive energy (5758), but that SE wind is still cross-off. It’s clean, but the wind is howling, making it a grunt to surf.

Monday the 24th and Tuesday the 25th are a write-off. The wind is over 25 mph and the swell starts to fade. Choppy, blown-out slop is all you’ll find. Wednesday the 26th is flat.

The tide turns on Thursday 27 August. The wind swings to the east, blowing straight offshore at 22 mph. The swell is a solid 6ft from the SSW with a 15-second period and moderate energy (1412). This is the first call to action. It’s going to be clean, offshore, and lined up, but expect it to be busy.

The standout is the weekend of 29-30 August. Saturday the 29th has 7ft to 8ft of SSW groundswell, with a very long 17-second period and energy up to 3613. The wind is offshore from the ESE. This is heavy, expert-only reef surf. Sunday the 30th holds similar size at 8ft, with the wind still offshore, but it’s a strong 25 mph, so paddling out is going to be a serious workout. The water is 81°F, which is a touch warmer than average for this time of year.

We get a bit of a lull early in the second week before another promising pulse lands on Thursday 3 September. The afternoon looks excellent with 6ft of SSW swell, an 18-second period, and light offshore winds from the east. It’s a week out, so it’s a watch-and-see, but it’s got good potential.

The final weekend, 5-6 September, brings back solid 6ft to 6ft SSW swell with long periods, but the wind looks to be cross-off again, which will mess with the surface.

So, the bottom line: if you’re an experienced surfer, the 29th and 30th of August are the red-letter days. Big, powerful, offshore, and dangerous. For a slightly more forgiving but still excellent session, Thursday the 27th of August is your best bet. The rest of the week is a game of patience.

Rusty 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.
