Lagundri - The Point Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright, Rusty here, let’s talk about what’s coming up at Lagundri - The Point.

Right off the bat, we’ve got a solid run of swell on the cards. The first proper session kicks off on Friday morning, the 4th of September. The water’s sitting at a warm 86°F, which is about normal for this time of year, nothing wild there. Friday morning is the real deal: clean, glassy conditions with the ESE breeze barely a whisper, and a nice 4ft SW groundswell rolling in with a long 13-second period. The energy’s already moderate (581), and the setup is as clean as it gets. That’s your window to get out there.

Friday afternoon gets a bit more wind, turning onshore, so things get tricky. Saturday and Sunday are a write-off for quality – onshore winds and stormy conditions mess up the shape. The swell sticks around, but you’re fighting the breeze.

Now, here’s the standout. Come Wednesday morning, the 9th of September, it’s on. The wind drops to dead calm, glassy as a mirror, and the swell pulses up to 6ft from the SSW with a 15-second period. The energy jumps to strong (1430). This is excellent surf for experienced surfers – clean, powerful, and consistent. The reef will be handling that long-period groundswell beautifully, so expect some proper lines. The crowd might be around, but for a wave this good, it’s worth the company.

The next real highlight is Saturday afternoon, the 12th of September. The swell hits 6ft from the SW with a very long 19-second period, and the energy is pumping (3201). The wind goes glassy, and the forecast says excellent conditions for experienced surfers. That’s a big, clean swell that will be lining up perfectly on the point. For the advanced crew, this is the best of the second week.

Sunday morning, the 13th, pushes up to 8ft from the SW with a 17-second period, and with the wind dead calm, it’s a powerful, glassy wave. That’s expert territory – over 8ft is a big step up, and this is right on the edge. If you’re not comfortable on a solid reef break, give it a miss.

The rest of the run into the third week stays consistent. Mornings are often glassy, with clean 5ft to 6ft SW swell. The 16th of September has a clean morning, and the 17th and 18th keep the quality high with glassy conditions and solid swell. The 18th afternoon even gets a clean offshore WNW breeze, which is a nice change.

Overall, there’s no real gap in the surf here – it’s a solid 16-day run. The standout is Wednesday morning the 9th for the clean 6ft, and the Saturday afternoon the 12th for the bigger, very long-period swell. Get on it.

Rusty.
