Indicators Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright, Rusty here. Let's break down what's coming for this spot. It's a sheltered point that needs a solid west-northwest swell to get going, and honestly, we're in for a bit of a lean stretch.

We kick off with some frustrating looks on Saturday the 5th. There's a waist-to-chest high swell from the south-southwest, about 3.6 ft to 3.9 ft, with a nice long 16-second period – that's proper groundswell energy. But the wind is the issue. Saturday morning has a light offshore breeze from the west-southwest, giving us a little hope, but the afternoon gets choppy with a cross-on wind. The combined swell energy is moderate (718-886), but the conditions just aren't clean enough to make it worth the paddle out.

Sunday the 6th is more of the same, maybe a touch smaller, with that cross-on wind spoiling things again. Then we hit a long, dry spell. From Monday the 7th right through to the morning of Wednesday the 16th, it’s mostly tiny, weak surf. Most days you'll be looking at ankle-to-knee high waves with next to no energy – the combined swell energy often sits under 500, and frequently under 300. That’s barely a ripple. The water temperature is around 60.6°, which is about normal for this time of year.

There are a couple of glassy windows, like Monday morning the 7th and Wednesday morning the 9th, but the swell is just too small for this break to do anything with them. It’s a solid week and a half of nothing to write home about.

Now, here’s the glimmer of hope. Look ahead to Saturday the 19th of September. The morning shows a waist-high 4.3 ft swell from the west-northwest – which is exactly what this point needs. The wind is forecast to be glassy from the west-southwest, so the waves should be clean and smooth. The period is a short 9 seconds, so it won't have the punch of a long-period groundswell, but with moderate wave energy (521) and perfect wind, this is your standout session. It's over a week out, so keep an eye on it, but it's easily the best bet of the whole forecast.

The afternoon of the 19th turns a bit bumpy, and Sunday the 20th morning offers another glassy look but with much smaller waves. So, circle that Saturday the 19th. For a break that's inconsistent and fussy about direction, that's your window.
