The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's cookin' for Hanna Park/Mayport Poles over the next couple of weeks. Gotta be straight with you – it's a tough stretch for paddlers. The forecast is a long, drawn-out run of tiny, weak, and mostly messy conditions.
We're looking at a solid ten-day gap of barely a ripple. From now through to the 21st of September, the energy reading is stuck in the low double-digits and up to 82 (weak moderate energy), with swell heights mostly wobbling between 1 ft and 3 ft and periods under 9 seconds. That's short-period wind slop, not real surf. The wind is all over the shop – cross, cross-on, onshore – so even on the few calm sessions, like Saturday the 12th or Monday the 14th, there's just no push to ride. It’s the kind of stretch that makes you want to take up kiteboarding if that onshore breeze picks up, 'cause there ain't much for a surfboard.
Finally, around the 20th of September, the energy starts to build. By Monday the 21st of September, we get a bump. The swell pushes up to 4 ft from the ENE with a combined energy reading of 141, but the period is still a weak 6 seconds and the wind is onshore. It's still messy. Then things get a bit more interesting, but only for the crew with big balls. On the morning of Thursday the 24th of September, we see a solid 7 ft pulse from the ENE with a moderate energy reading of 708. The really good news here is the wind swings to a clean cross-offshore breeze. That's a silver lining. The swell is pushing over 8 ft, though, so this is strictly expert territory. It's a beach and pier set-up, and with a longer period of 8-9 seconds, it could offer some heavy, dumpy close-outs, not a classic long wall. It's definitely not for the groms or the beginners.
The best chance for a wave in the whole window shapes up on Friday the 25th of September. Swell sticks around at 8 ft from the NE with a solid energy kick of 865 (moderate-strong). The wind stays cross-off from the SW, keeping things clean. Even though the score says marginal, this is the peak of the run. The swell is big and powerful enough to hold up, and clean offshore wind is a game-changer. If you're an experienced local and don't mind the paddle, that morning could be the one standout session to mark in the diary. Expect it to be a little unpredictable this far out, but the ingredients are there.
