The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s look at what’s coming up for this Lebu spot. It’s a proper exposed reef break that likes a good WNW swell, and we’ve got some serious size on the horizon. The water is sitting at 54°F right now, which is about 1°F warmer than normal for this time of year – nothing to write home about, just your average late-winter temperature.

The forecast opens with a clean little window. Sunday afternoon the 23rd of August is looking sweet – a clean 4ft swell from the SSW with a light 6 mph cross-off breeze. The water’s glassy, the energy is solid, and it’s going to be a proper fun session. That’s the kind of afternoon you paddle out for and don’t want to leave.

Then things get messy. Monday the 24th through to the end of the month is a write-off for quality. The wind swings onshore, picks up, and we get hammered by rain, thunderstorms, and lumpy cross-onshore junk. The swell gets big – like 10ft to 12ft on the 26th and 27th – but with the wind howling from the NNW and WNW, it’s just a washing machine. The energy levels are huge, but the wind is ruining it. That’s kite-surfing stuff, not for a paddle.

We do get a brief reprieve late on the 28th and 29th, but the wind is still on it, and the scores are low. It’s not worth getting excited about.

The real standout comes at the end of the first week. Monday morning the 31st of August is a beauty. The wind goes glassy, dead calm, and we’ve got a 5ft SW groundswell with an 11-second period. The energy is solid, and the conditions are going to be pristine. That’s a morning to have your board waxed and ready before dawn.

The 3rd and 4th of September are the highlight of the whole outlook. Thursday afternoon the 3rd, we’ve got a 7ft W groundswell at 15 seconds, with a clean cross-off breeze from the SSW. The energy is strong. But the real gem is Friday the 4th of September. 10ft of W swell at 14 seconds, blowing offshore from the SSE at just 6 mph. This is big, clean, powerful reef surf for experienced surfers only. Crowds are possible here, so get your spot early. The long period means the sets will be fat and lined up on the reef – it’s going to be incredible.

The second week fades a bit. The 5th and 6th have some clean, smaller waves with offshore or glassy wind, but nothing that matches the Friday peak. The 7th of September looks like another big swell (12ft) but with onshore wind, so it’s messy again.

To sum it up: the best bet is the glassy morning of the 31st of August for a fun, clean session, and then the absolute standout is the 3rd and 4th of September – especially the 4th – for big, clean, powerful waves. If you’re a strong paddler, that’s your window.

Rusty.

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.
