The Lowdown
Alright, let’s talk turkey. The next two weeks ain't looking like much for paddling. There’s a big stretch of junk incoming, so if you were hoping to get wet, you might wanna make other plans for the next while.
Your first real shot at something clean isn’t until Saturday, September 12th. And even then, it’s a wait-and-see situation. The morning looks like the pick, with a modest Westerly-Northwest swell running about 3ft at 11 seconds. The wind’s coming offshore from the South-Southwest, which should keep the surface tidy at Lagide. The energy is moderate (272), but that offshore wind and the swell angle lining up with the break’s NNW exposure should offer a few lined-up runners.
That Saturday morning is your golden window. Sunday the 13th has slightly bigger waves, but the wind shifts to cross-offshore and the energy drops, so Saturday is your best bet. It's not going to be big, but it could be the cleanest we get all stretch.
But before all that, we’re looking at a long, drawn-out period of onshore junk. The swell is showing up, even pushing 6ft on Tuesday, September 1st, but it’s getting destroyed by fresh north winds, leaving it messy and closed-out. The water’s at 68°, which is spot on for this time of year.
After that Saturday tease, it fades fast. The energy drops off the map, and we’re back to cross-offshore slop. By the 14th, the combined swell energy falls below 100 (72), which is about as weak as it gets. Honestly, this setup looks more like a kite-surfing day than a paddle-surfing day if it fills in at all. So, circle that Saturday the 12th, but keep your expectations in check. Things can change.

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