The Lowdown
Alright, let's get real about the outlook. For the next couple of weeks, we're looking at a pretty flat and messy run of things here. The swell's got some energy coming in, but it's not translating to much of anything rideable. The water's sitting at a warm 71° (that's 7° above normal, which is a big deal for this time of year), but that's about the only highlight for a while.
The first real chance of anything comes on Saturday, August 8th. Even then, it's a marginal call. We're seeing a small 2ft swell from the SSW, with a period of about 18 seconds. That long period is nice – it means some real groundswell energy – but it's small and the tide's gonna be questionable. It's a beginner-friendly wave, so if you're just learning, it might be worth a paddle, but don't expect much.
After that, it's a bit of a dead zone. We've got a few days, from Sunday the 9th right through until about Thursday the 14th, where the surf is just poor. The swell stays small and the winds are mostly cross-onshore or light. Not worth getting wet for, unless you just wanna sit on the board and soak up the sun.
Now, here's where things get interesting. Around Friday, August 14th, into the weekend of the 15th and 16th, we see a real push of energy. Look out for Friday afternoon and Saturday morning as the standout window. The combined swell energy jumps up into the strong zone – we're talking 594 on Friday afternoon and 512 on Saturday morning. That's a big jump from the weak stuff we've had all week.
The swell size bumps up to 3ft, still from the SSW, with a period of 16 seconds. It's still not huge, but that energy and period mean the waves will have some push and shape to them. The wind on Saturday morning is light and cross-onshore, which isn't perfect, but it's workable. This is gonna be the best window on offer, but remember, it's a week out, so treat it as promising rather than guaranteed.
From Sunday the 17th onwards, it starts to fade again. The energy drops, and we're back to marginal and poor conditions. There's a peek of something on the 19th, but the winds are looking cross-shore and messy. Honestly, the window of the 15th and 16th is your best bet, and even then, it's not going to be epic. Just better than the flat nothing we've had.
So, don't get your hopes up too high for the next couple of weeks. If you can wait it out, the weekend of the 15th and 16th is the one to circle. Otherwise, it's a good time to wax your board for the next run.

Information about the Heavens Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Heavens provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Heavens can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Heavens 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 (Heavens) 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 Heavens 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.
