The Lowdown

Alright, so here’s the deal. The Broome area is going to be a total bust for the next 16 days. The only spot in the data is Gantheaume Point, and it’s one of those places that “rarely breaks” – and you can see why. The entire forecast period is a flat spell.

Starting from the 6th of September, right through the first week, it’s all tiny dribble. The wave energy is super weak, barely hitting double digits – like 12 (weak) on Sunday the 6th, then dropping to 1 (weak) on Saturday the 12th. Wave heights are stuck between 0.3ft and 2ft, with periods so short you’d be bobbing in the water. The wind is mostly cross-onshore, making it choppy and ugly. We get a glassy moment the morning of Saturday the 12th, but there’s no swell to go with it. The water is warm, reading 79°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year – a pleasant anomaly of 3°.

The second week, from the 13th of September onward, is more of the same. Tiny, weak swell (0.3ft to 2ft), short periods, and constant cross-onshore wind. The energy stays low, never getting above 11 (weak). There’s a clean morning on the 11th with a light cross-offshore breeze, but the swell is just 0.3ft. Another glassy morning on the 17th of September, but again, no waves. The 21st of September sees the “biggest” energy of the run at 10 (weak), with a 2ft swell and a 4-second period – that’s not surfable.

With a beach and point setup, and this kind of tiny, weak swell and wind, it’s more of a kiteboarding scene than a surfing one. For a paddler, there’s just nothing on the cards. The forecasts can always turn, but right now, this is a classic blank run for the region.
