The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s cookin’ for our local stretch.
To be straight with you, the next couple of weeks are gonna test your patience. We’re looking at a long, dry spell with very little to get excited about. For the first week, from Tuesday the 25th of August right through to Tuesday the 1st of September, the surf is tiny and the conditions are poor. We’re talking ankle-snappers at best, with most of the swell coming in at 0.6ft to 2ft from the east, and the wind is mostly cross-onshore or straight onshore, chopping it all up. The wave energy is weak, barely cracking 70 (72 on the Saturday afternoon is the highest in that stretch). It’s a write-off, plain and simple. There’s a gap of about nine days of nothing worth paddling out for.
Things start to look a little more interesting on Thursday the 3rd of September. The morning at Jetty Park (beach/jetty) shows a glimmer of hope. We’ve got 2ft of easterly swell, but the real story is the wind: it’s glassy. Dead calm. That’s a major positive for a spot that’s inconsistent. It’ll be clean, but the wave energy is still only moderate at 86. The water temp is a warm 86°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, so you can leave the booties at home. It’s surfable, but it’s very ordinary. The morning of Friday the 4th of September is a carbon copy – 2ft easterly swell, glassy conditions, and the same energy level (73). If you’re desperate for a longboard or a foamy, these are the only two windows that look even remotely clean. The break is inconsistent, so don’t expect much.
The best on offer? Honestly, there’s no standout here. The Thursday 3rd and Friday 4th mornings are the only real options. The swell is tiny, below 5ft, so it’s fine for beginners. But with the inconsistency and the very ordinary quality, it’s a “if you’ve got nothing else to do” kind of surf. Keep your expectations low.
After that, we’re back to tiny, wind-affected slop for the rest of the forecast. The combined swell energy on the 8th of September drops to just 7, which is about as weak as it gets.
Stay patient, mates. It’ll turn around eventually.

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