The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s shaping up for the next couple of weeks.
Right off the bat, we’ve got a quiet start. Saturday the 29th and Sunday the 30th of August are nothing to get excited about – small, weak swell and ordinary to poor conditions, so don’t bother paddling out just yet. We’ve got a real gap here until things start to change.
The first real standout arrives on Friday the 4th of September. Lawrencetown Left Point (reef and point) is the only break on the map, and it suddenly fires up. Friday morning brings a clean 8ft swell from the SE with a light offshore breeze, and the combined energy hits 498 (moderate). By Friday afternoon, the swell jumps to 12ft from the SE, with energy roaring up to 1941 (strong). That’s serious – but the wind is cross-shore, and the swell is big enough that this is expert territory only. If you’re experienced and hungry, this is the peak of the run. Saturday the 5th keeps that energy going: 12ft and 10ft from the E and ENE, but again, these are only for the brave and skilled. The break is inconsistent, so don’t expect a constant barrage, but when the sets come, they’ll be heavy.
After that, the swell drops fast. Sunday the 6th and Monday the 7th are small and ordinary again. The next real window opens up on Wednesday the 9th of September. Wednesday morning delivers a clean 5ft SSW swell with light offshore wind, energy at 481 (moderate), and the water temp is about average for this time of year. It’s a solid, surfable day for intermediates, but the wind shifts onshore by afternoon, so get it early.
Thursday the 10th morning has a 4ft long-period swell from the S (12 seconds), with some cross-shore wind – it’s a bit tricky, but the long period means better-shaped waves, and that energy sits at 515 (moderate). This is a decent option for those who know the reef. But it’s not a standout compared to the 4th and 5th.
The last notable window is Sunday the 13th of September. Morning brings a clean 5ft SW swell with light offshore breeze, energy at 387 (moderate). It’s a good, clean session for intermediates, but nothing to write home about.
Overall, the best of the best is Friday the 4th and Saturday the 5th of September – that’s the big groundswell event. Get on it if you’ve got the skill. The rest of the period is mostly small or onshore junk. Keep your eyes open though, forecasts can change.
Rusty.
