The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s break down what’s coming in the next couple of weeks for the local zone. First off, I’ve gotta level with you – this stretch ain't a classic. We've got a looong run of tiny to near-flat surf, so don’t rush to wax up just yet.
The first real chance is Tuesday morning, 18th August. Focene (or Baraonda) might see a tiny 3ft swell from the WSW, with a period of 6 seconds. The energy is weak (55). There’s a light offshore easterly breeze at 10 mph, so the surface will be clean, but it’s really just a paddle and a pootle. That afternoon, the wind shifts southerly and the conditions go pretty average.
After that, we hit a major dry spell. From Tuesday afternoon right through to Wednesday morning, 26th August, it’s all poor surf – knee high slop, messy winds, and no power in the water. You’d be wasting your time trying to ride any of that.
That Wednesday morning, the 26th, the swell pushes up to about 4-5ft from the WSW, with a 7-second period and moderate energy (195). Finally, some size! But the wind is a problem – a solid 12 mph southerly cross-shore making it choppy and rough. With the wind and the beachbreak setup, this honestly looks like a better day for the kite surfers than for us paddle guys.
The absolute best call in this whole forecast is Thursday morning, 27th August. The swell drops back to about 2-3ft from the WSW, period of 6 seconds, with moderate energy (50). The magic is in the wind: it’s dead calm, glassy conditions. That is a huge positive for our exposed beach, and it’ll be the cleanest surf we see all stretch. The water temp is sitting about average for this time of year.
From there it’s back to the doldrums – tiny waves, messy wind – all the way to Tuesday morning, 1st September, where we end with another clean 2-3ft WSW swell and a light offshore.
So, to sum it up: the only real standout is Thursday morning, 27th August. It’s not gonna be big, but it will be clean. The rest of the run is a waiting game. Keep your hopes up, forecasts can always change.
