The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s talk about what’s happening at Lawrencetown Left Point.

Right off the bat, we’re looking at a pretty quiet start to the forecast period. The first few days are slim pickings with weak, small swell and not much to get excited about. There’s a little something on Monday the 31st of August with a 3ft SSW swell at a short 6 seconds, but it’s nothing special. The wind is offshore from the NW at 12 mph, which will keep it clean, but the wave energy is weak and the quality is just ordinary. That’s the best we’ve got for the first four days.

Then the real story kicks in on Friday the 4th of September. A big pulse of SE swell jumps up to 13ft, but the period is a short 8 seconds, and the wind is howling from the ESE at 25 mph, cross-onshore and messy. Wave energy is strong, but the conditions are poor. This setup looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing. That stays messy through the weekend.

Now, Sunday the 6th of September is a standout. The swell is pulling in at 13ft from the east with a long 11-second period, giving it proper groundswell energy. The wind is offshore from the NE at 25 mph, which means it will be clean. However, the swell is too big for this break. This is for experts only. The point setup will handle the long period, but the size is intimidating.

The next true highlight lands on Tuesday the 8th of September. After the big stuff subsides, we get a 4ft easterly swell with a 9-second period, and the wind goes glassy – WNW at 3 mph. That’s a rare treat. The wave energy is moderate, and the conditions are clean. This is the best window for a good, fun session without the chaos. The break is inconsistent, so patience is key, and it can get crowded sometimes, but with glassy conditions and a solid 4ft, it’s worth it.

After that, the swell drops off again. A few days later, around the 13th of September, we see a return of small SSW swell at 5ft with a short 6-second period and light offshore winds, but it’s nothing special.

Overall, the best bet is Tuesday the 8th of September. The glassy conditions and clean 4ft easterly swell make it the pick of the run. The big 13ft day on the 6th is for experienced chargers only.

Rusty out.
