The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let me give it to you straight for Honeymoon Island. I’ve looked through the entire 16-day window, and it’s a total bust. There’s no surf worth mentioning. Not one session.
From September 5th all the way through September 20th, the ocean is pretty much asleep. You get a few tiny bumps of 0.6ft to 1ft on a few days, but they’re coming from the NW and WNW with periods of 2 to 4 seconds – that’s just choppy, wind-driven junk. The combined wave energy never gets out of the single digits, topping out at a pathetic 7 on the afternoon of the 12th. That’s nothing.
A few mornings look glassy, like the 8th and the 12th, but the swell is barely a ripple. There’s a long stretch from the 14th with clean offshore winds from the east, but the swell is either zero or a weak 0.6ft to 1.0ft from the SSE or S. That setup is way more interesting for a kite than a surfboard.
There is no best day. This is one of those long, flat periods that happens around here. Keep your expectations at zero.
Rusty.

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.
