The Lowdown
Alright, this is Rusty, and I'm looking at the outlook for the next 16 days. Honestly, I've gotta be straight with you – this stretch is a tough one for surfers. We're looking at a long, quiet period where the swell is just not showing up. There's a gap of about ten days with no real surf to speak of, so don't be in a rush to grab your board.
The first hint of anything worthwhile starts to show up on Thursday, the 27th of August. The swell energy is still weak, sitting at 138, but it's something. The wind is light offshore from the WSW, which is clean. The waves are small, around 2 ft from the east, so it's not going to be a classic. This is really just a window for a beginner to get a few small, clean waves, not a day for a proper session.
The dirtiest little window we get is Friday, the 28th of August. The morning is the pick, with a light offshore breeze from the WSW and the swell bumping up to 3 ft from the east. The combined energy gets into the moderate range at 223, which is a sign of some life. The wave period is 11 seconds, so it's a bit of a groundswell, but on a beach/jetty setup like Jetty Park, longer-period swells can break a bit too straight. Still, it's the cleanest we'll see.
After that, the rest of the run is mostly small, messy, and blown out with onshore winds. The water temp is about 86°F, which is a touch warmer than average for this time of year, but that's a small comfort.
So, to be honest, there's not a standout day here. If you're really desperate for a paddle, Friday morning the 28th of August at Jetty Park is your best bet for some clean, small waves. Otherwise, keep your gear dry and wait for the next system.

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.
