The Lowdown
Right, folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what we’ve got coming up over the next couple of weeks for Hanna Park/Mayport Poles. I’m gonna be straight with you – it’s a flat spell, and a long one at that.
Alright, we start off on Saturday, 5th September. The outlook is, well, grim. Tiny swell of 2ft, coming from the ESE with a weak period of 8 seconds. The energy is barely there at 49, and that SE wind is cross-onshore, making it messy. Surf’s poor. It’s a no-go.
We then hit a real dry patch. From Sunday, 6th September, right through to Friday, 11th September, there’s nothing that’s even close to rideable. Swell heights are all under 2ft, with energies dropping as low as 4. It’s a frustrating stretch of near-flat days. Saturday, 12th September, offers a glimmer of hope at 1ft with glassy conditions in the morning, but the swell is so weak and the period so short, you’d be wasting your time. The water temperature is sitting at 82°, which is about average for this time of year, so at least it’s warm for a paddle.
The pattern doesn’t improve much. There’s a tiny uptick on Monday, 14th September, with a 2ft swell from the ESE, period hitting 9 seconds, and the energy climbing to 90. Winds are light and cross-shore, so it might be clean, but it’s still just too small for a proper wave. The only real highlight of the entire forecast is a couple of glassy mornings on the 12th and 13th, and again on Sunday, 20th September, with a 1ft swell from the ENE and a period of 10 seconds, giving 47 in energy. That’s the cleanest window you’ll get, but it’s a long-period swell for such a small wave, meaning it’ll be a dribbly, long wait between sets. It’s a stand-out for the wrong reasons – it’s the best of a bad lot.
Overall, this is a blank run. The swell just isn’t there. The whole 16-day window is a write-off for any decent surf. If you’re desperate for a paddle and a tan, maybe the glassy mornings on the 12th, 13th, or 20th September will give you a nice, warm, flat-water session. But for real waves? Forget it. The setup here is a beach and pier, and with the wind and tiny swell, it’s honestly more interesting for the kite surfers if anything picks up. That’s the long and short of it.
Rusty.
