The Lowdown
Right, folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at the crystal ball for Lagide. Straight up, it’s a bit of a mixed bag and we’re gonna have to wait for the good stuff. The first week and a half is pretty much a write-off, with a long stretch of poor surf conditions and onshore winds. But hold on, because the second week has a real stand-out day that’s got me excited.
We kick things off on Thursday, 3rd September, and it’s flat and messy. This grim pattern hangs around for days. The wind is mostly onshore or cross-on, and the swell is weak and short-period. The energy readings are all over the place, but mostly low, with a few pulses of moderate energy like on Saturday 5th (124) and Sunday 6th (537), but the wind just ruins it. You’ll be staring at a choppy, blown-out mess. This is a real drought.
Things start to look a little less hopeless from Tuesday 15th September. The morning session is small, with a clean cross-off breeze, but the swell is tiny at 2ft from the WNW. The afternoon brings a longer period groundswell of 15 seconds, pushing 3ft from the WNW, and the energy jumps to 553. The wind is still clean cross-off, but the surf is only marginal. It’s a glimmer, not a green light.
Now, Wednesday 16th September. That’s the day. The morning is where it’s at. We’ve got a solid 6ft swell from the NW with a very long period of 14 seconds. The combined energy reading is a massive 1362! That’s serious power. The wind is glassy, absolutely dead calm from the NNE. For an advanced spot like Lagide, this is pure gold. The water temp is sitting at 68°, which is about normal for this time of year, nothing to worry about. This is a proper groundswell, so the sets will be clean, powerful, and well-spaced. It’s a session for experienced surfers only, as it’s pushing the limits for beginners. The afternoon sees the swell drop a touch and the wind swing onshore, making it rough again. So, get in the water early on the 16th.
After that, the rest of the 16-day window trickles off back into smaller, less consistent surf. The 18th of September has a clean, cross-off breeze but only 2ft on offer. So, in summary, the whole outlook is a long wait for one truly excellent morning on Wednesday 16th September. Don’t miss it.
Rusty.

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.
