The Lowdown
Alright folks, let’s talk shop. The next week or so is pretty slow, but there’s a proper pulse coming if you can wait.
Right now at Lawrencetown Left Point (reef and point) it’s small. Tuesday morning the 25th has a glassy surface but the swell is weak—only about 4ft from the SSE with a short period around 6 seconds. Combined energy is 111 (moderate). It’s surfable but nothing special.
That quiet stretch continues through the end of August. Wednesday the 26th morning sees a bump to 4ft from the SSE at 9 seconds, energy up to 312 (moderate), but the wind goes cross-shore and then cross-onshore, chopping it up. Thursday the 27th morning goes glassy again but the swell drops back to 3ft. It’s a run of ordinary, marginal surf.
The first few days of September stay small and clean but tiny—swell around 1ft to 2ft. Offshore winds on Tuesday the 1st and Thursday the 3rd make for clean conditions but barely any push. Energy stays under 200 (weak). Not worth suiting up.
Then it gets interesting. Friday the 4th of September is the big one. The forecast shows an ESE groundswell hitting 7ft in the morning with a 9-second period and clean moderate offshore NW wind at 12 mph. Combined energy jumps to 1908 (very strong wave energy). The report calls it excellent for experienced surfers, and at that size it’s expert territory. That’s the session. The afternoon holds at 8ft with energy at 1088 (still strong) and offshore wind picking up. Crowds are sometimes an issue here—with waves like that, expect a lineup.
Saturday the 5th keeps it going. 7ft ESE swell, clean offshore NW wind at 12 mph, energy 929 (strong). Expect very good waves. By Sunday the 6th it eases to 5ft but stays clean with offshore NNW breeze at 12 mph, energy 717 (moderate to strong). Still a solid day for intermediate to experienced surfers.
Monday the 7th sees the swell back to 4ft with a long period of 11 seconds, clean in the morning but wind turns onshore in the afternoon. From Tuesday the 8th on, it drops back to small, poor conditions.
Bottom line: Friday the 4th through Sunday the 6th of September is your window. Friday morning is the standout—big, clean, offshore, powerful ESE swell. If you’ve got the skills and don’t mind company, that’s the one to chase.
