The Lowdown
Alright, let's break down what's on the table for Monkstone Point.
Honestly, it’s a bit of a tough stretch. This spot is a real tease – it’s very sheltered and rarely breaks, and the forecast doesn’t give us much to work with for the opening week. The first half of the run is mostly a write-off with tiny, weak swell and poor conditions.
We finally see some hope on the morning of the 28th of August. A moderate offshore breeze from the WSW is cleaning up a 3.6ft swell. The wave energy is moderate (118), but the quality just isn’t there for a proper paddy session.
Things get a bit more interesting on Saturday the 29th afternoon. The swell pushes up to 8.2ft from the WSW with a period of 9 seconds, and the combined energy is very strong (1126). Wind is a fresh offshore from the WSW, so it’ll be clean. But at that size, this is expert territory only, and even then, the forecast still calls it marginal. The water temp is about average for this time of year.
There’s a big gap after that. The whole first week of September is dominated by either onshore winds or howling offshore gales that make paddling impossible. The 8ft+ swells keep rolling through, but the wind is just too strong.
The real standout, and the one to keep an eye on, looks like the afternoon of Monday, 7th of September. The swell is a much more manageable 2.3ft, but the period is a very long 14 seconds (groundswell). Combined energy is moderate (307). Crucially, the wind is a strong offshore from the SW, though it'll be hard to paddle into. At a sheltered point like Monkstone, that long period groundswell could wrap in beautifully if the direction is right. A bit of a long-shot promise that far out, but it’s the only true glimmer of quality on the cards.
