Alright, let’s break it down. Rusty here.
So Lambe Lambe – it’s a point break that doesn’t fire all that often (rarely breaking), so when it’s on, it’s a treat. Water temp right now is about 63°F, which is running close to 4°F colder than normal for this time of year. You’ll feel that extra nip.
Monday the 6th is a total washout – onshore wind and poor surf. Nothing doing.
Tuesday the 7th morning has a 4ft south swell, period just 8 seconds, with a light offshore wind from the south. Clean enough, combined energy is moderate (357). It’s okay, but nothing to rush for.
Wednesday the 8th afternoon is a nice little window: 3ft south swell, but with a period of 12 seconds – that’s longer period groundswell. Wind goes glassy from the northeast, combined energy moderate (299). For a point break, that longer period gives the waves some real shape and push. A nice little session if you time it right.
Sunday the 12th afternoon – now we’re talking. A solid 8ft south swell, period 8 seconds, and glassy calm winds. Combined energy is strong at 819. That’s proper size, so this one’s for the experienced crew. Clean glassy surf on a point break with that much juice? That’s a standout afternoon. But remember, this spot can be crowded – “always” packed – so get in early.
Friday the 17th is the real gem of the outlook. Morning: 5ft south swell, period of 13 seconds – that’s long-period groundswell with proper power. Combined energy is very strong at 938. Light cross-off wind from the southwest keeps the faces clean. This is the kind of day where Lambe Lambe shows its best – long, lined-up waves with plenty of push. Afternoon stays glassy with a 5ft south swell, same long period. This Friday is the day to circle on the calendar.
The second week trails off. Some small, clean windows on Monday the 20th afternoon and Tuesday the 21st (both with 2-3ft swell but long period), but nothing with any real size or energy. Fun for a small wave board, but that’s about it.
Bottom line: If you want the best, hit Friday the 17th. Sunday the 12th is a close second for size, but the 17th has the quality and the groundswell. Bring a hoodie for the cold water, and expect company.
Rusty out.

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.
Lambe Lambe is 23 km (14 miles) from the city of Florianopolis. If you plan a holiday in Florianópolis, look for hotels and other accommodation in Florianopolis. Florianopolis has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
