The Lowdown
Alright, folks, Rusty here. Let’s break down what’s coming for Lagide. It’s a beach and reef spot, pretty open to the swell, and it loves a NNW direction. The water’s sitting at about 68°F, which is dead average for this time of year.
The first couple of weeks are a real struggle. From Thursday the 3rd through to the 10th of September, it’s all onshore or cross-on winds, and the wave comment is “poor surf conditions” every time. There’s some energy in the water – like Sunday the 6th with combined energy at 520 (moderate) and Monday the 7th at 738 (moderate) – but the wind is just trashing it. The swell is there, but it’s a mess.
The first hint of something half-decent is Friday the 11th of September. It’s small – 2ft from the NNW – but the wind goes glassy in the morning. The combined energy is 242 (weak), and the comment is “surfable waves but very ordinary conditions.” Not worth chasing, but it’s a sign. Saturday the 12th stays clean in the morning with cross-off winds and 4ft from the NNW, but it’s still only a 1-out-of-10 day.
Now, here’s the one you want. Circle Sunday the 13th of September. That morning is the clear winner. The wind is glassy, the swell is 3ft from the NW with a very long period of 16 seconds. That’s proper groundswell. Combined energy is 712 (moderate), and the comment says “expect very good surf conditions.” That long period will give you well-shaped waves and longer gaps between sets, making it easier to get out. At a beach and reef spot, the long period might make the beach breaks a bit straight, but the reef should hold it together. The afternoon gets a bit bumpy with cross-shore winds, but the morning is the go.
Monday the 14th is a step back with cross-on winds. Tuesday the 15th morning has another glassy moment with 4ft from the NNW, but the period is a short 8 seconds, so it’ll be a bit weak and crumbly. The energy is 305 (moderate), but it’s only a “good” rating, not a standout.
From the 16th to the 18th of September, it’s back to onshore winds and poor conditions. The 18th has some NNW swell, but with 30 km/h winds onshore, it’s a total washout.
So, if you’re patient, hold out for the morning of Sunday the 13th. That’s your session. The rest is just waiting for the wind to play nice.
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.
