The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here, and I'm looking at the crystal ball for My Khe / Da Nang. Got to be honest, it's a quiet picture.
The first sign of life is a tiny pulse on Thursday morning, the 27th of August. We're looking at a 2ft swell from the ENE, but it's got a proper long 15-second period, so there's some real groundswell energy. The combined wave energy is weak, at 197. The wind is a light cross-offshore, so it's clean. It's not much, but it's rideable. Thursday afternoon gets glassy with a drop to 2ft.
After that, it's a rough road. Friday the 28th drops to 1ft, and then we hit a long stretch of poor surf – tiny waves, messy wind, and a lot of onshore or cross-shore slop. There's a gap of several days where the recommendations are zero, and the conditions are just plain bad. The whole end of August and first week of September is looking like a bust.
We see a bit of a bump on Tuesday, the 1st of September. The swell pushes up to 6ft from the NNW, but it's short-period wind swell at 7 seconds. The combined energy hits 316, which is moderate, but with a 16 mph cross-offshore wind and that short period, it's going to be a lumpy, sectiony mess. It's marginal at best, and you'd want the right board.
The rest of the two-week outlook is a repeat of tiny, weak swell and poor conditions. The wave energy barely gets above 100 most days. There's a few instances of longer period, but the size is just too small.
So, the best call is that Thursday morning on the 27th. It's clean, has a touch of groundswell, but keep your expectations real low. The rest of the window is a write-off. For a beginner spot that's usually fairly consistent, this is a really poor run. It's so flat and weak it might be more interesting for a kite surfer than a paddle surfer for a while. Stay patient, folks.
Rusty.
