The Lowdown
G'day, it's Rusty. We've got a bit of a wait on our hands, but there's a solid window of clean surf coming up for Lambe Lambe. The first several days are a write-off with poor conditions and onshore or cross-onshore winds, so you're looking at a gap from now until the 8th of August with nothing worthwhile.
The real action kicks off on the morning of Saturday the 8th of August. That's our first standout. The swell is a clean 4 feet from the south, with a long 14-second period pushing a moderate wave energy of 674. The wind is glassy, and it's going to be absolutely perfect. The water temp is about average for the time of year. This is a rare point break that only breaks now and then, so if you get the chance, you take it. Just know that crowds are inevitable here, so get there early.
The morning of Sunday the 9th of August is our second big call. The swell has bumped up to 5 feet from the south, still with a solid 12-second period, and the energy has climbed to 734. The wind is offshore and moderate, so the waves will be clean and lined up. This is still a rippable size for intermediate surfers, but it's getting a bit more push. The offshore flow will hold through Monday the 10th and into Tuesday the 11th, with the swell dropping a touch but staying clean. Tuesday morning has 5 feet from the SSE with an 11-second period and gentle offshore winds.
After that, the wind swings around and things get messy again through the middle of the week. But keep your eye on the morning of Friday the 14th of August. That's another promising one: 4 feet from the SSE with a very long 14-second groundswell, moderate energy of 741, and light offshore winds from the SSW. It'll be clean, but that long period can make beach breaks a bit walled-up; on a point like Lambe Lambe, it'll be a dream.
The following weekend, the 15th, has smaller clean surf in the 3 feet range with glassy conditions in the morning, a nice little session for the longboard or a soft top.
After that, the swell fades and the wind turns poor again for the rest of the 16-day window. The standout is unquestionably the 8th morning, with the 9th and 14th mornings as close seconds.
Rusty.

Information about the Lambe Lambe Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Lambe Lambe provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Lambe Lambe can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Lambe Lambe 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 (Lambe Lambe) 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 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. 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.
