The Lowdown
Alright, let's take a look at what's happening at Honeymoon Island sandbar. I gotta be honest, it’s a real bummer of a forecast. The water temp is about 87°F, which is a touch warmer than usual for this time of year, so at least the dip will be nice.
From September 10th right through to the 24th, it’s a total flat spell. There’s no energy coming in (0) and, honestly, no waves to speak of. The wind switches around – some clean mornings, some choppy afternoons – but it doesn’t make a bit of difference when there’s nothing to ride. That’s a solid two-week block with no surf at all.
We finally see a little something on the morning of September 25th. The combined energy bumps up to (48) with a 0.7m (2 ft) swell from the NNW and a short period of 5 seconds. The wind is a light offshore from the NE, so it’ll be clean. But even then, the report calls it poor surf. This sandbar rarely breaks as it is, and that little windswell just isn't enough to get it going properly.
The long and short of it is there are no good options in this 16-day stretch. For a spot that's usually inconsistent, a blank run like this isn't surprising. Best to leave the board in the car for now.

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