The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s get into it for Hannah Park. We’ve got a long stretch ahead, and honestly, the first week and a half is a bit of a quiet one. The surf is pretty small and the conditions are mostly messy with cross-onshore breezes. There’s a real gap here with hardly any surf worth paddling for.
The first real chance of something decent shows up on the morning of Thursday, 27 August. We’ve got a cleaner session with a cross-offshore wind, and the swell is picking up to 4ft from the ESE with a period of 13 seconds. That’s a solid groundswell, and the combined energy is up at 624 – that’s moderate wave energy. The water is a warm 85°, which is about average for this time of year. It’s a marginal call, but for this spot, that’s as good as it gets in the window. Friday morning the 28th still has some clean cross-off wind, but the swell drops back to 2ft.
Then on Saturday morning, 29 August, we get another clean morning with 2ft ESE swell, period 10 seconds, and energy at 218. Conditions are clean with a light cross-off breeze. Again, it’s just surfable, nothing to write home about, but it’s the best of a poor run. The afternoons tend to get a bit choppy with the sea breeze, so get out early.
From the 30th onward, it’s back to tiny, poor surf with onshore winds. A long, flat gap for the most part. This is a beach and pier setup, so with the small swell and light winds, it’s more of a beginner-friendly paddle than a proper session. Don’t expect any standouts here – the whole 16 days is a struggle.
Rusty.
