The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here, let's talk about what's cookin' at Lillatro.
Right off the bat, I gotta be straight with ya—this 16-day run is a proper struggle. We're looking at a whole lot of flat spells and onshore junk. There's a gap right at the start with absolutely nothing worth paddling out for, and then a long, dry stretch of poor conditions and no swell that runs from the end of August all the way through the first week of September. For a stretch of about eight or nine days there, it's just a complete write-off. Not much to get excited about, honestly.
The only sniff of anything decent shows up way down the line. On Thursday the 10th of September, we finally get a pulse. The morning brings a 4ft WSW groundswell, with a period around 9 seconds and a combined energy reading of 273 (moderate wave energy). The wind is light and cross-offshore out of the SE, which will keep it pretty clean. For an advanced reef break like Lillatro, that's your one and only real window. The water is already an unusual 81°F, which is much warmer than normal for this time of year, so you won't need a thick suit.
But listen, that's it. Everything before and after is tiny, onshore, or both. The Thursday morning is the highlight. The setup is really more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing for most of this period. There's a big pulse of 6ft on the Wednesday afternoon before, but it comes with strong onshore wind, so it'll be a mess. Don't get your hopes up for that.
Keep an eye on the forecast for that Thursday the 10th, but don't hold your breath for anything else.
Rusty.

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