Mullaway Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright, mate, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on offer down the coast. It’s a bit of a slow start, so don’t be in a rush to get the board out of the shed just yet.

The first few days are pretty grim. Monday and Tuesday are looking small, a bit onshore, and just plain messy. We won't see anything worth paddling out for until later in the week, and even then, it's not much to write home about. We’re looking at a bit of a flat spell from the 21st through to the 24th, with only tiny, weak waves. The energy is just not there.

Things start to get a little more interesting mid-week. On Tuesday the 25th, the winds go glassy in the afternoon. That’s a rare treat, and it'll clean up the small combo swell that’s hanging around. It’s not big, but it could be fun for a grovel on a longboard.

But the real standout comes on Wednesday the 26th. There's a solid pulse of long-period SW groundswell filling in, and the morning is looking clean with a light offshore. This is the one to keep an eye on. The swell direction from the S is good for the joint, but that long period might make it a bit straight at a beach break. For a point like Mullaway, it should be reeling. The wave energy is strong, and while the period is long, the wind looks good for it. This is the day to get your fix if you can.

After that, it fades back into a mix of small, short-period windswell and leftover groundswell, with the winds turning more onshore and the size dropping off through the end of the month and into the 1st of September. Nothing that will get the heart rate up.

So, the call is simple: endure the flat and average days, and be ready for that Wednesday the 26th. It could be the standout of the window. Be aware that Thursday the 27th also has some energy in the water, but the wind swings onshore in the afternoon, making it less appealing.

As for the water temp, it's about average for this time of year, so the 4/3 will do the job.

Stay stoked.
