The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what the next couple of weeks are serving up for Hotel Novotel.
To be honest, it's a pretty flat and messy run for the foreseeable future. We’re looking at a long stretch of nothing special right from the get-go. There’s no surf worth paddling out for until at least Friday the 25th of September. That’s a solid gap of over a week and a half where the conditions are just poor – a mix of cross and onshore winds with weak, choppy waves. The water temperature is about average for this time of year, so nothing unusual there.
Finally, on the afternoon of Friday the 25th, things take a slight turn. The wind shifts to a light cross-offshore, cleaning things up a bit. We’ll see waves around 4ft from the ESE with a period of 8 seconds, giving us a moderate wave energy (194). The wave comment finally says "surfable waves but very ordinary conditions," so it’s not going to be a classic, but it's the only window where you won't be fighting a complete mess. The cross-offshore breeze is a major positive here, making it the cleanest it’s been.
After that brief window, it’s right back into the poor conditions on Saturday the 26th and beyond, with onshore winds and weak, choppy surf.
So, the one and only standout in this entire 16-day window is that Friday afternoon session at Hotel Novotel. It’s a beginner-friendly break that’s fairly consistent, but expect a few others to have the same idea – crowds are likely. If you’re desperate for a paddle, that’s your only real shot. Otherwise, the forecast can change, but right now it’s looking pretty grim.
Rusty.

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