The Lowdown
Alright, this is Rusty, and I’m looking at the surf for My Khe / Da Nang over the next couple of weeks. I gotta be straight with you – it’s looking pretty quiet for the most part, so don’t get your hopes up for any pumping sessions just yet.
We’ve got a run of pretty flat and poor conditions kicking things off. From Wednesday the 2nd right through to at least the end of the first week, we’re looking at tiny, weak swell and mostly unfavourable winds. The wave energy is pathetically low, often in the single digits (15) in terms of combined energy, so the ocean is basically asleep. You’ll see a few pockets of glassy conditions, like Wednesday morning the 2nd, but with a tiny 1 ft swell from the NNW at a short 6 seconds, there’s just nothing worth paddling out for. This dry spell stretches out for about nine or ten days, with basically no surf on offer.
There’s a bit of a hiccup around Saturday the 12th and Sunday the 13th when the swell tries to push up to 4 ft and 5 ft (combined energy hitting 150 to 294). But the wind is a mess – cross and cross-onshore – making for choppy, poor quality. That’s a hard pass for the paddle board; those bigger, short-period (7 to 8 second) swells blown out by a moderate breeze just aren’t inviting. It might look more interesting for the kite crew than us.
The real contender, and whisper it quietly because it’s a long way off, shapes up around Tuesday the 15th and into Wednesday the 16th of September. We’ve got a cleaner look at My Khe. On Tuesday morning the 15th, there’s a 4 ft swell from the ENE at 8 seconds, but the wind is a light offshore from the NW. That’ll clean the waves right up, giving us some fun little lines on the bank. Combined energy sits at a moderate 194 – not huge, but workable. Then Wednesday morning the 16th is even more promising: a 3 ft ENE swell, but with glassy conditions and a combined energy of 107. For a beginner-friendly spot like My Khe, that’s going to be the pick of the whole outlook. It won’t be big, but it’ll be clean and playful.
So, the short version: the next week and a bit is a write-off. If you’ve got patience, circle Tuesday the 15th and Wednesday the 16th on your calendar. It’s a long-range call, so things can change, but that morning glass could be worth the wait.
Stay patient,
Rusty

Information about the My Khe / Da Nang Surf forecast
