The Lowdown

Alright, surfers, Rusty here, lookin’ at the charts for our local zone. We’ve only got one spot on the menu this time: Lebu. And for the next 16 days, it’s a real mixed bag, with a couple of mouth-watering windows and plenty of days to kick back and watch the whitewash.

The water’s sitting pretty close to average for this time of year, so no wild surprises on that front.

The first real chance to paddle out comes this Thursday morning, the 13th. It’s small, around 4ft of clean, long-period groundswell (15 seconds) from the WSW. The energy’s moderate (633), but the real story is the wind – dead glassy. Absolute perfection for getting some clean, lined-up waves. It won't be big, but the quality will be there.

Thursday afternoon though, we get a switch in the wind, coming onshore from the NNW. Surf goes to junk, so don't bother.

Friday the 14th and Saturday the 15th are a write-off. The wind is a mess, cross-onshore and strong. Friday pushes up to a solid 10ft, but it’s a total washing machine with that onshore breeze. Saturday morning’s no better, with a risk of storms. Saturday afternoon cleans up a little with some cross-offshore wind, but the swell has dropped right off to 3ft.

Here’s the real standout – circle Tuesday, August 18th. Tuesday morning looks like the session of the fortnight. The swell jumps to a powerful 7ft from the WSW, with that lovely 14-second period. The combined energy is a big and beefy 2227. And the wind? It’s a gentle offshore from the SSE. This is prime, experienced surfer territory. That 7ft of lined-up swell with offshore wind is what we live for. Tuesday afternoon it drops a bit and gets a light cross-onshore, making it a bit more manageable, but still big enough to be exciting.

Wednesday the 19th keeps the big swell in the 8ft range, but it’s got a cross-onshore wind, so it’ll be lumpy. One for the bigger boards and stronger paddlers, but the magic of Tuesday morning is gone.

Thursday the 20th sees the swell drop back to a more friendly 6ft. The afternoon looks promising again as the wind swings offshore from the south, cleaning it up real nice. That'll be a good session.

The following week, from the 21st right through to the 28th, is a bit stop-start. We get a few windows. The weekend of the 22nd and 23rd is small but offers some fun, clean conditions with glassy mornings and small swell around 5ft. The mornings of the 26th and 27th look clean again with a small, long-period groundswell, so keep an eye on those. The rest of that second week is mostly small or onshore junk, nothing to get too excited about.

So, to sum it up: Thursday morning August 13th for a small, glassy cruise, and Tuesday morning August 18th for the big, powerful and clean stand-out session. Don’t sleep on Tuesday.

Information about the Lebu Surf forecast

The above surf forecast table for Lebu provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Lebu can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Lebu 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 (Lebu) 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 Lebu 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.
