The Lowdown
Hey, Rusty here. Let's break down the next couple of weeks at Heavens.
Water temp is running about 70°F, which is nearly 6°F warmer than normal – that's a real treat for this time of year.
Now, the surf story is a bummer. There's nothing worth paddling out for in the whole 16-day outlook. The first few days, from Friday August 21 through Sunday August 23, are flat and bumpy – swell around 1‑2 ft, cross-onshore breeze, and even though the wave period is decent (13‑16 seconds), it's not enough to form a rideable wave. Combined energy is weak to moderate, running from 122 to 240.
Monday August 24 shows a slight bump – 2 ft from the south, 14-second period, energy 325 – but the wind is still cross-onshore. Still marginal at best. Tuesday August 25 afternoon picks up a bit: 3 ft, south, 15 seconds, energy 529. Still only a 1 out of 10. The biggest we see is Wednesday August 26 morning: 4 ft from the south, 13 seconds, energy 828 – moderate energy, but with onshore wind it's sloppy. That's the highlight, and it's not good.
After that, it tapers off. There's a brief moment on Monday August 31 afternoon when the wind turns glassy and the swell is 2 ft from the SSW with a 14-second period – the cleanest conditions of the whole forecast, but the waves are tiny and ordinary. Score a 1.
There are no true standouts. Heavens is a very consistent break, but right now the consistency is just small and messy. The swell direction is close to the optimum SW, but the size is too small. Beginners might find the smallest days manageable, but forget any decent shape. Honestly, this looks more interesting for kiteboarding – the occasional cross‑shore breeze and small chop could be fun for them.
Forecasts can always flip, but based on this, leave the quiver at home.

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.
