The Lowdown
G’day, Rusty here. Let’s break down Fullers – a reef break meant for the advanced surfer, inconsistent, and it can get a bit crowded sometimes. Water temp’s about 61°, which is normal for this time of year. The spot loves swell from the SW, and the window’s open.
Tuesday the 18th brings a 3ft SSW groundswell with a 16-second period – moderate energy (424). Wind’s cross at 6 mph, so it’s not clean. Nothing to get your wetsuit in a twist over. Wednesday is more of the same.
Thursday the 20th is the early standout. Morning has 3ft SSW swell with a 14-second period, light offshore wind from the NW (6 mph), and clean glassy conditions. Energy’s moderate (525). That’s the session.
Then it goes dead. Friday through the weekend, swell drops to 1-2ft, the wind’s cross, and the surf’s poor. Fullers is basically flat.
Sunday the 23rd sees a 3ft WNW swell at 19 seconds, but it’s from the wrong direction and cross-wind. Skip it.
Now, looking ahead to Thursday the 27th of August, we’ve got a solid 5ft NW groundswell with a 9-second period, clean offshore wind at 9 mph, and strong energy (626). That’s a proper session for advanced surfers – clean and punchy.
Friday the 28th morning offers a 3ft SSW groundswell at 17 seconds – clean and powerful (627 energy). Afternoon sees a 7ft short-period NW windswell – that’s big and lumpy, only for the hardcore or the kites.
Saturday the 29th has a 6ft NW windswell in the afternoon – same story, messy. The morning is the better call with a clean 3ft SSW. Sunday the 30th morning is clean (3ft, 15 seconds), but the afternoon gets blown out.
Best in the whole run? Thursday morning the 27th – 5ft NW, clean offshore, strong energy. Or Thursday the 20th of August for a smaller, glassy clean wave. Mark your calendar.
Rusty.

Information about the Fullers Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Fullers provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Fullers can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Fullers 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 (Fullers) 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 Fullers 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.
Fullers is 44 km (27 miles) from Monterey. If you plan a vacation in Monterey, look for hotels and other accommodation in Monterey. Monterey has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
