The Lowdown
G’day, Rusty here. Look, I’m gonna level with ya – this 16-day stretch for Freeport Pier is a real quiet one. There's simply no good surf on the cards. From now, Saturday the 15th of August, right the way through to Sunday the 30th of August, every single session is showing a score of zero. That’s a solid run of flat, junk conditions. Don’t get your hopes up.
We’re looking at tiny, weak swells the whole way through. The biggest push comes right at the tail end, on the morning of Sunday the 30th with a measly 3ft from the SE, but the combined wave energy is still pathetic at 33. It’s barely a ripple. The wind is generally rubbish too – mostly cross-onshore or onshore from the S and SSE, with a moderate breeze kicking up chop. There are a few fleeting moments of glassy calm on the mornings of the 16th, 25th, and 26th of August, but with swell heights of only 2ft to 2ft and barely any energy (20 to 25), it’s just a flat, glassy lake.
One thing worth noting: on the morning of Friday the 28th of August, we do get a bit of clean cross-offshore wind from the NNE, and the swell gets up to 2ft from the SSE, with the energy sitting at 28. Still, with the period only 5 seconds, it’s not going to have any push. It would be a frustrating session, even with clean conditions. For this spot, a blank stretch like this is pretty normal for this time of year. Things can always change, but for now, don't bother paddling out.
Rusty.

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