The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's get straight into it. This forecast is a tough one for our local stretch. We're looking at a long, quiet spell with no real standout surf to get excited about for the next 16 days.
Right now, the water is reading about 87° which feels a touch warmer than normal for this time of year. For the first couple of days, we're looking at tiny, weak swells. On Thursday, the 20th of August, there's a 1ft swell from the ESE with a short period of 8 seconds. The combined wave energy is a very weak 15. It's small, but the morning has a light offshore wind from the WSW, keeping the surface clean at Jetty Park. This is about as good as it gets for a beginner on a foam board, but it's not exactly a surf.
The pattern continues through the end of the week. We see a bit of a bump on Sunday, the 23rd of August, with the swell picking up to 2ft from the ESE and the period stretching to 12 seconds. The combined energy hits 117, which is moderate. The morning offers a light cross-offshore wind, cleaning things up nicely. But again, the height is minimal.
The weekend of the 29th and 30th of August sees the swell dipping back down to 1ft to 2ft with a short period of 8 seconds and weak energy (around 35 to 60). The winds turn onshore, making for messy conditions. The whole first week is a write-off for anyone wanting a proper wave.
As we head into September, there's a glimmer of hope on the 2nd of September with a 2ft swell from the E, but the period is a poor 6 seconds, making it weak and choppy. The energy is only 56. The wind is onshore, so it's not great. The rest of the first week of September is more of the same tiny, onshore slop.
The truth is, there are no good surf options in this 16-day window. The break itself is inconsistent, and the forecast shows nothing but small, mostly weak swells that are often plagued by onshore or cross-onshore winds. For a beach and jetty setup like this, the conditions are far more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing when the wind is up, but even then, the swell is tiny. The water is warm, but the waves just aren't happening. We'll have to wait for a change in the pattern.

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.
