The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's coming down the line for this zone. Straight up, it's a tough stretch. The first week plus of this 16-day run is a write-off for any decent paddle surfing. We're looking at a solid week or more of messy, cross-shore winds – mostly from the NNE – running across a reef that really wants a clean northerly swell to work. The energy is there at times, hitting moderate to strong levels, but the combo of onshore and cross-wind chop just wrecks any chance of a clean face. The water temp is about average for the time of year, nothing unusual there to help out.
The only real glimmer in the outlook, and it's a long way off, is around the 7th of September into the 8th. On the 7th (Monday), we start seeing the conditions move from "poor" to "marginal." By the morning of the 8th (Tuesday), the swell jumps up to a solid 8 ft from the NE, with a period of 9 seconds. The combined energy is massive, hitting strong to very strong levels. Most importantly, the wind on Tuesday afternoon drops to a moderate 12 mph breeze from the north – still cross-shore, but lighter. That's the closest we get to a clean window across the whole run. The swell is going to be big – over 8 ft – so that's expert territory only. But the energy and the cleaner conditions make the 8th the best, and really only, standout. It's a long way out, so don't book the flights just yet, but keep an eye on it.
Everything after that, into the 9th, looks like it gets messy again. No other good options in this 16-day window. Hang in there.
