The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here again, but this time in feet and miles per hour. Same story, different numbers.
We’ve got a long, flat stretch up ahead. The first surfable day doesn’t show up until Monday, August 10th, and even then it’s a marginal call. That’s a gap of nearly two weeks with nothing worth paddling for. The wind is mostly onshore or cross-onshore, the swell is weak and short-period, and the scores are all zero. It’s a normal blank run for this area when the conditions don’t align.
The only spot on the map is Lagide, a beach and reef setup. The optimum swell direction is from the NNW, and that’s what we’ll eventually get. The water temperature is about average for this time of year.
Let’s focus on the one day that shows a glimmer. Monday morning, August 10th – we’ve got 5 feet of swell from the NW with a period of 9 seconds. The combined swell energy is moderate (336). The wind is a light cross-onshore from the WNW, only about 3 mph, so it’ll be glassy with just small wind ripples. That’s the standout period. The wave comment says “marginal” but the score is a 1, which is the only one on the board. This is the only one to even consider. The swell is small enough for beginners, but the cross-onshore won’t make it perfect.
After that, Tuesday the 11th sees 7 feet of swell from the NNW with an 8-second period, but the wind is a moderate cross-onshore, and the wave comment is “poor.” The combined energy is strong (541), but the short period and messy wind mean it’s more of a washing machine. Wednesday the 12th is similar with 6 feet from the NNW and onshore winds. That size is too big for beginners and not clean enough for experts.
If you’re itching for a paddle, Monday morning the 10th is your only real shot. For the rest of it, the surf is poor, and the onshore wind keeps it choppy. It’s a tough outlook.
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.
