Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s coming down the line for the South Coast. The next week or so is looking pretty tidy if you’re an experienced surfer, but there’s a real drop-off after that.

We’ve got a nice run of solid, clean surf kicking off Sunday the 5th. The water’s sitting at 64°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year – nice surprise.

The pick of the bunch is Monday the 6th. Moruya Rivermouth is the spot. Monday morning it’s pumping clean 8 ft swell from the SSE with a 10-second period and a light SSW cross-off breeze at 9 mph. The combined energy is a solid 1743, that’s got some proper push behind it. This is excellent surf, but at 8 ft, it’s one for the experienced crew only. The cross-off wind will keep it glassy and lined up. It’ll be consistent and clean, a real standout session.

Tuesday the 7th morning keeps the good times rolling with 6 ft from the SE, still clean on a cross-off, energy at 1026 – not quite as punchy as Monday but still a damn good wave. Wednesday morning the 8th is another clean, clear morning with 6 ft of SE swell (945 energy), still clean, but it’s a touch smaller.

Things start to ease off through the end of the week. Thursday the 9th morning has glassy 4 ft from the ESE (607 energy) with a WSW glass-off, and Friday the 10th morning is glassy again with 5 ft from the SE (583 energy) – still very surfable, just not the size of the start of the week.

Then from Saturday the 11th onwards, we hit a long, flat spell. From Saturday afternoon right through to the end of the 16-day window, it’s all poor surf with tiny, weak swell and no real energy. That’s a solid 9-day gap with nothing worth paddling out for. The combined energy drops right down into the double digits – 28, 14, 7 – just nothing to work with.

So, bottom line: if you’re experienced, get in the water Monday the 6th and Tuesday the 7th for the best of it – clean, solid, and lined up at the Rivermouth. After that, it’s time to wax the longboard for small stuff, or just wait for the next system.

Rusty.

Information about the Moruya Rivermouth Surf forecast

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