The Lowdown
G’day, Rusty here. Look, I’ll be straight with you – the next couple of weeks at Heavens are a bit of a mixed bag, with mostly small, marginal surf and questionable conditions. It’s not a total write-off, but you’ll have to be patient and pick your moments. The water temp is sitting about average for this time of year, so nothing out of the ordinary there.
The pattern starts on Wednesday the 26th of August with a 4ft S swell at 13 seconds, but the wind is cross-on, so it’s not clean. Wave energy is moderate (640). Thursday the 27th is smaller and choppy, with the swell dropping to 2ft. Friday the 28th sees a longer period SSW swell (19 seconds) but it’s small, around 2ft, and the wind is cross-shore, so it’s not great. The weekend (29th-30th) is similar: small, cross-onshore winds, and the swell hangs around 3ft. Nothing special.
The pick of the whole period is shaping up for Thursday the 3rd of September, and it’s the true standout. The morning session is the one to aim for. We’ve got a 5ft SSW swell at 13 seconds, with glassy conditions – that’s a major positive. The combined swell energy is a solid 830 (moderate), and the water will be clean. The wind is dead calm, so expect silky lines. This is the best on offer, no question.
The rest of the first week of September is marginal. The morning of the 1st has a 4ft S swell, but it’s cross-on and choppy. Wednesday the 2nd is similar, with a 4ft S swell. After the standout Thursday, the surf drops off again. The morning of the 5th has a 3ft SSW swell, but it’s cross-on and messy. The second week sees small, inconsistent swells, mostly in the 2ft-3ft range, with cross-shore winds. The morning of the 8th has a 2ft, long-period (19 seconds) SSW swell, but it’s tiny. The afternoon of the 8th is a bit better with a 3ft SSW swell and a clean, cross-offshore wind, but it’s still small. The 9th and 10th are similar – small surf, with light winds.
Overall, if you’re a beginner, the 5ft swell on the 3rd might be a bit much, but for everyone else, that Thursday morning is the one to circle. The rest of the time, it’s a wait-and-see game. The break is very consistent, so it tends not to stay poor for long, and forecasts can change. But for now, that’s the story.
Rusty.

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.
