The Lowdown
Alright, let’s get into it. I’m looking at the whole 16-day window for Frishman, and I’ll be straight with you—it’s a tough stretch. The swell is tiny, the energy is weak, and the conditions are mostly poor. There are no standout days, no real waves to get excited about. The water temperature is sitting at 86°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, so that’s nice if you’re just floating around.
The first bit of anything near surfable shows up on Thursday 20th August, but it’s a no-go. Swell is a measly 2ft from the NW, with a period of just 3 seconds—that’s pure wind chop, no push. The combined energy is a pitiful 6 (weak), and it’s cross-on at 15 mph, so it’s choppy and messy. Not worth paddling out.
Friday 21st through to Sunday 23rd is more of the same—tiny swell, 2ft to 2ft, short periods between 4 and 5 seconds, and energy levels that never crack 22 (weak). The wind is mostly cross-on or onshore, so it’s just not clean. Even when the wind goes glassy on Monday 24th morning, the swell is only 1ft and 6 seconds—energy is 12 (weak). You’d be sitting on a flat lake.
The pattern drags on through the rest of August and into early September. There’s a brief moment on Saturday 29th August morning where it’s glassy and the swell bumps up to 3ft with an 8-second period, giving combined energy of 67 (still weak). That’s the best of the whole run, but it’s still poor surf conditions overall. The swell direction is WNW, and Frishman likes it from the WNW, but the size just isn’t there.
After that, it fades again. The last few days in the first week of September are flat and poor—1ft to 2ft, with periods of 5 to 8 seconds, and energy levels barely reaching 50 on the best afternoon. Winds are a mix of glassy mornings and cross-on afternoons, but the lack of swell kills it.
Honestly, there’s nothing here. If you’re keen on a paddle, Saturday 29th August morning is your best shot—glassy, with the biggest swell of the period at 3ft and 8 seconds from the WNW. But don’t expect any waves worth riding. This is a place where the forecasts can change, but for now, I’d leave the board at home.

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