The Lowdown

Alright, grab a coffee, pull up a stool. Rusty here. Let’s have a proper look at what’s on the table for the next couple of weeks.

Straight up, the outlook for La Zenia is a tough one. We’re looking at a long, dry spell with almost nothing worth paddling out for. The first half of the forecast is a write-off. From the 23rd of August right through to the morning of the 5th of September, the surf is either tiny, onshore, or both. You’ll see a few mornings with a clean looking surface, but the swell is so small—0.7 ft to 2 ft—it’s barely a ripple. The combined wave energy sits in the low single digits and teens most days, which is just weak. There’s a run of 13 days where the score is a zero. That’s a proper blank run.

The only glimmer of hope, and I mean a glimmer, comes on the morning of Saturday the 5th of September. The wind goes glassy, dead calm, and we get a bit of a pulse from the east with a 4 ft swell. The period is short at 6 seconds, so it’s a weak, windswelly sort of peak, but it’s the only session where the conditions align. The combined energy hits 83, which is still weak, but it’s the best we’ll see. The water temp is about average for the time of year, nothing unusual there.

That Saturday morning is the standout. It’s not a classic, but it’s the only time the stars sort of line up. The swell is coming from the east, which is a long way off from the optimum direction for this reef break, which wants an east swell. So you’ll get some waves, but they’ll be a bit soft and pretty ordinary. Because it’s an inconsistent spot, you’ll be waiting for the sets, but with glassy conditions, it’ll at least be clean. Keep an eye on the wind, because it swings onshore in the afternoon.

The rest of the 16 days? More of the same. Small, messy, and not worth the effort. The jetty is basically a lake for two weeks. Forecaster confidence is high that this is a quiet period, and for a spot like this, that’s just how it goes sometimes.

Rusty.

Information about the La Zenia Surf forecast

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