The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s coming our way for Focene.
Honestly, it’s going to be a tough stretch. We’ve got a long, long dry spell ahead. From now until the end of August, the surf is basically a no-go. You’re looking at tiny, weak swell with poor conditions, cross-shore winds, and a lot of chop. Not worth paddling out for.
The first real flicker of hope doesn’t show up until Sunday the 30th of August. That morning we finally see a pulse of energy – a 6ft W swell with a 7-second period rolling in. The energy jumps right up (578), and the wind is a light NE breeze, keeping it clean and cross-offshore. The water is sitting at a very warm 84°F, which is over 5°F above normal for this time of year – that’s very unusual, and it’ll feel like bathwater. That morning window is your best shot in this whole outlook, but be warned, the swell period is short, under 8 seconds, so it’ll be a bit lumpy and sectiony. For the more experienced surfers, that 6ft might be borderline, but for intermediates it’s rideable if you pick your peaks. Crowds are often a thing here, so expect company.
After that Sunday morning, it falls apart again. Monday the 31st offers a tiny 3ft WSW swell in the morning with glassy conditions, but it’s ordinary at best. The rest of the first week of September is a write-off – flat or weak with poor wind.
In summary: We’ve got a big gap of almost no surf for the first week. The lone standout is the morning of Sunday the 30th at Focene. It’s a short-window, punchy little swell with clean conditions. If you’re desperate for a paddle, that’s your one chance. Otherwise, it’s a waiting game.
Rusty.

Information about the Focene or Baraonda Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Focene or Baraonda provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Focene or Baraonda can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu.

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 Focene or Baraonda 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.
