The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s take a look at what’s on the menu for Mizata over the next couple of weeks.

We’ve got a decent run of surf coming up, but it’s not all going to be picture perfect. The pattern shows a solid, consistent SSW groundswell hanging around, with some really nice windows of clean conditions, especially in the mornings. The water temp is sitting at a warm 86°F, which is pretty much spot on for this time of year, so no surprises there.

The first proper call is for Tuesday morning, September 1st. Swell is 3ft from the SSW with a nice 13-second period, and the wind is glassy out of the SSE. It’s a bit on the small side, but with the energy reading at 387 (moderate) and those clean conditions, it’s a good one to get the board wet. The afternoon turns onshore and messy, so make it a dawn patrol.

The standout window of the whole forecast is Friday September 4th, through Saturday morning September 5th. This is where it gets exciting. Friday morning sees 4ft of SSW swell at 17 seconds, with glassy conditions – the energy jumps right up to 1152 (strong). Friday afternoon is even better: 5ft, same direction, glassy wind, and energy at 1380. This is excellent, experienced surfer territory. Saturday morning tops it off with 5ft, zero wind, and glassy conditions. The energy is at 1304. That is a proper push of long-period groundswell. The period over 15 seconds means the waves will have real shape and power, but at a point break like Mizata, it should line up beautifully. Just be aware that with swell over 5ft, it’s not for beginners, and Saturday’s 5ft is pushing into expert-only water. Crowds are a possibility here, so get out early.

After that peak, things ease back but stay fun. Sunday September 6th morning is still clean with 4ft at 15 seconds (energy 772 – moderate/strong) and glassy winds. Monday September 7th morning drops to 3ft, but with that glassy SSE wind, it’ll be clean and fun.

There is a bit of a lull mid-week. Tuesday 8th and Wednesday 9th mornings offer smaller 2ft to 3ft swell, but still with glassy conditions and moderate energy. Worth a look if you’re jonesing.

The next little pulse to keep an eye on is Thursday morning, September 10th. Swell picks back up to 3ft from the SSW at 17 seconds, with glassy wind. Energy sits at 865 (strong). It’s a solid morning session.

Friday morning September 11th is another beauty in the making – 4ft, zero wind, glassy conditions, and 696 energy. That’s a clean, well-shaped wave.

The second week sees a few more mornings with clean 3ft to 3ft swell and glassy winds, like Saturday 12th and Tuesday 15th. The energy is moderate. The long-range standout is Monday morning September 14th. It’s small at 2ft, but the period is a very long 19 seconds, and the wind is glassy. Energy is 440. That’s a super clean, long-period pulse that will wrap in nicely, but it’ll be small. It’s promising but less certain this far out.

Overall, the best of the best is that Friday 4th to Saturday 5th window. Don’t miss it.

Rusty.

Information about the Mizata Surf forecast

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