The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's coming down the pipeline for the Hotel Novotel stretch.
To be straight with you, it's a pretty lean run. We've got a solid two weeks or so ahead, but the waves are just not showing any real character for most of it. There's a lot of small, short-period wind swell bumping in from the ESE, mostly around the 3ft to 5ft mark, and the wind is rarely doing us any favours. You'll be fighting a cross or cross-onshore breeze for almost the entire forecast, which will keep things messy. The combined swell energy (128-350) is there at times, but the quality just isn't. For a beach setup, this is more of a kitesurfing show than a paddle surfer's dream for the bulk of the time. Basically, there's a long gap of nothing worthwhile.
But, there might be one small window worth getting up early for if you're a beginner or just desperate.
The standout moment, if you can call it that, is on Tuesday afternoon, the 22nd of September. We finally see the wind swing to a clean cross-off from the ENE, with a gentle breeze. The swell is small at 2ft from the East with a period of 10 seconds, giving us a combined energy of 86. The report says the conditions are clean, which is a massive change from everything else. It's surfable, but the quality is merely "ordinary". For a beginner on a longboard, this is about the best you're going to get in this stretch. Don't expect any power, but you might get a few clean little runners.
Other than that, things stay poor. The ESE and SE winds keep blowing, and the swell stays small and weak. It's a tough outlook. The water is a warm 85°, which is about normal for the time of year, but you'll be sitting on a flat board for most of it.
Stay patient.
Rusty.
