The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here, looking at Lambe Lambe.
The start is slow. From Saturday August 29th through Tuesday September 1st, the swell is tiny—around 3 to 4 feet from the ENE, with a short 8-second period. That’s low-energy surf (energy around 115-298). The conditions stay clean, but for a spot that rarely breaks, it needs more push. Water temp is 67°, normal for late August.
The first big day is Wednesday morning, September 2nd. That’s a standout. We get a solid 10-foot swell from the S, 10-second period, and energy jumps to 3042. Winds are light and clean, cross-offshore. This is excellent—but it’s big. Beginners shouldn’t even think about it. Afternoon drops to 7 feet from the SSE, still clean and very good.
Then Thursday September 3rd and Friday September 4th are lost to onshore winds and choppy, poor surf. Stay out.
Saturday September 5th is flat and tiny, around 2 feet.
The next standout is Sunday September 6th. Morning is 8 feet from the S, 11-second period, clean. But afternoon jumps to 10 feet from the S, 13-second period, energy 2847—clean and moderate offshore winds. Again, experts only.
Monday September 7th is also big: 8 feet from the SSE, very long 15-second period, energy 3232. Clean in the morning. That long period will make it powerful and lined up on this point, but still only for the experienced crew.
After that, the swell drops. Wednesday September 9th and Thursday September 10th see 4 to 5 feet from the SSE, 11 to 12-second period, clean. More manageable, moderate energy (415-519). Good for intermediates.
The final few days from September 11th to 13th are mixed. Saturday afternoon the 12th gets glassy with 4 feet from the ESE, and Sunday the 13th offers clean 5 to 6 feet from the E, but the period stays short (8-9 seconds), so not the best shape.
So your two windows to chase are Wednesday morning September 2nd and Sunday afternoon September 6th. Big, clean, powerful swells for the brave. Lambe Lambe doesn’t break often, so when it does like that, you don’t want to miss it.
Rusty.

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 Lambe Lambe 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.
