The Lowdown
Alright, this is Rusty comin' at you from the beach. Gotta be straight with you – the outlook for Heavens is a bit of a tough one to swallow. We're looking at a 16-day window, but the first several days are going to be a real struggle to find anything worthwhile.
The water is a major talking point right now. It's sittin' at a very unusual 71°, which is way above what we'd expect for this time of year – a full 6° warmer than normal. That's a wild anomaly.
So, let's break it down. The first real glimmer of something surfable doesn't hit until the 5th of September, Saturday morning. It's a small, long-period groundswell from the SSW, only 3 ft, but with a 16-second period. The combined energy is weak, just 848. The wind is a light cross-on, which isn't ideal, but it's not a total blowout. The swell is real small, though, and the conditions are marginal. Honestly, it's not great.
The next few days, the swell picks up a touch. Sunday the 6th sees 5 ft from the S, still with a decent 14-second period, but the wind stays cross-on. The wave energy is still moderate, under 900. It's a consistent spot, but it's not going to be clean. The wind just isn't our friend.
The best of a not-so-great bunch looks like it'll be the afternoon of Friday, the 11th of September. The swell is tiny, only 2 ft from the SW, but it's a long-period groundswell with a 16-second period. The big deal here is the wind. We get a glassy, dead-calm spell. For a few hours, the ocean will be like a mirror. The combined energy is still low at 462. It's a beginner-friendly break, but even then, the wave size is for the small-wave crew. It's a rare moment of peace, but don't expect barrels.
After that, it's a long, slow slide. From the 12th of September through the end of the outlook on the 20th, the swell drops to under 3 ft. The wind is mostly cross-on or onshore, and the energy levels are in the low triple or even double digits. It's a proper lull. The consistency is there, but it's a flat spell. For a spot that's usually a bit more reliable, this is a tough run. The weather is clear, but the surf just isn't. Honestly, with these small, weak swells and the persistent cross-shore wind, the setup looks more interesting for a kite surfer than a paddle surfer during most of this period.
So, if you're desperate, the glassy window on the afternoon of the 11th is your only real shot, but keep those expectations on the floor. For the rest of it, the board stays in the car.
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.
