The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s talk about Lambe Lambe. This one’s a grind, I’m not gonna lie. There’s a long stretch of nothing special before we finally get a little pulse. The first real chance doesn’t come until the 5th of August, so don’t rush.

Right now through the end of July, it’s all small and messy. Swell is mostly 2 to 3 feet, with winds blowing cross or onshore. The combined wave energy is barely into the hundreds (276 is the highest, but that’s a poor day). Water temp is average for the season, nothing to write home about. Just leave the board in the car.

On the 28th of July Tuesday afternoon, we get a tiny clean window: 3 feet from the NE, 6-second period, light cross-off breeze, clean. It’s surfable but very ordinary. Combined energy is only 113. Weak.

The 31st of July Friday morning is glassy, with 2 feet from the south at 8 seconds. Combined energy 100. It’s small, but it’s the only glassy session in the first week. If you’re itching, that’s your moment.

Now, the 5th of August Wednesday afternoon is where it finally gets interesting. Lambe Lambe sees 5 feet from the ENE at 8 seconds, light cross-off, clean. Combined energy hits 300. The swell direction matches the optimum E angle, and for a point break, that’s gold. Crowds are always here, so expect company, but this is the best session of the whole outlook.

The 6th of August Thursday afternoon builds on that: 5 feet from the ENE, 9-second period, light cross-off, clean. Combined energy 348. That’s the biggest wave energy we get. At 5 feet, it’s still fine for intermediates, but beginners might feel the push. This is your best bet.

The 7th of August Friday morning offers 6 feet from the south at a short 7 seconds, but it’s cross-on with light wind ripples. Combined energy 388. Size is there, but the wind is gonna chop it up.

After that, it fades. The 10th of August Monday morning gives a tiny 2 feet from the south with a very long 14-second period, clean cross-off breeze. Combined energy 185. Long-period groundswell means long lulls and clean little waves. Not a day to go big, but it’s pretty.

Bottom line: the 5th and 6th of August are your windows. The rest is a waiting game. Hang tight.

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.
