The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on offer.
Right off the bat, I gotta be straight with you – this 16-day window is a tough one. For most of this run, we’re looking at a whole lot of flatness up at Honeymoon Island. From now until the 20th of September, there’s barely a ripple worth paddling for. The combined swell energy is sitting at a pathetic 1 to 3 (weak energy), with wave heights barely scraping 1 ft. That’s not surf, that’s a lake.
There’s a glimmer, but it’s faint. On Sunday, September 14th into Monday, September 15th, there are a few tiny pulses, but again we're talking 0.7 ft – not worth suiting up for. The wind is mostly offshore or light on those mornings, but with no height, it’s just a pretty view.
That said, if you’re a beginner or just want a float, Tuesday, September 8th morning is about the best you’ll get. It’s glassy with an easterly 3 mph breeze, and the surf is a tiny 0.7 ft from the WNW. It’s clean, but barely breaking. The break is a sandbar that *rarely breaks*, so this is about as typical as it gets for the area. The water temp is about average for this time of year, so no surprises there.
The lookahead to the 20th and 21st of September shows some cleaner offshore winds (E 15 to 16 mph) but still absolutely zero swell. It’s a frustrating pattern, but honestly, for Honeymoon Island, these stretches of dead calm are pretty normal. Don’t hold your breath. The setup here is more interesting for a kite surfer than a paddle surfer during these conditions.
No standouts to shout about this time – we just have to wait for the charts to change, and they usually do. Keep the board waxed and the eye on the horizon.
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.
