The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s lined up for the local stretch.
To be straight with you, we’re looking at a long dry spell to kick things off. The next week and a half is a bit of a write-off for paddle surfing. From Saturday the 29th of August right through until Tuesday the 1st of September, it’s flat to tiny with poor conditions. We’re talking swell heights barely reaching 2 ft and the combined wave energy is weak, sitting below 50. The wind though, is actually offshore and clean for most of that time, especially Sunday and Monday, but there’s just no swell to work with. You’d be dragging your board for nothing.
Now, there is one small window that breaks the silence. On Tuesday the 1st of September, we get a pulse. The swell jumps to 6 ft in the morning from the NNW with a period of 8 seconds. The combined energy hits 475 – that’s moderate but on the stronger side of moderate. The wind is a moderate offshore from the WNW, keeping things reasonably clean. This is for My Khe / Da Nang. The water temp is about average for this time of year. This is a beginner-friendly break, so heads up – at 6 ft, it might be a bit much for absolute beginners. It’s fairly consistent here, and with an exposed NE setup, it’ll pick up that NNW swell okay. The crowds can be there sometimes, so you might not have it to yourself. Honestly, this Tuesday morning, despite the wind being a bit breezy, is the only real standout in the whole 16-day window. It’s not perfect, but it’s the best we’ve got.
After that Tuesday bump, it drops right back off to poor surf conditions and tiny swell for the rest of the run. Wednesday the 2nd sees it vanish back to 2 ft and then flat. From Thursday the 3rd all the way through to Sunday the 13th of September, it’s a constant run of poor surf, with onshore or cross-shore winds and wave energy figures that barely crack 60. A few days even dip into single digits. It’s a grim outlook for a solid week and a half after that one Tuesday pulse.
So, to sum it up: you’ve got one day to pencil in – Tuesday the 1st of September. It’s not a classic, but it’s rideable and clean. Otherwise, leave the board in the bag or take up kitesurfing if the wind blows, because the ocean is giving us nothing for paddle surfing.
Rusty.

Information about the My Khe / Da Nang Surf forecast

A general guide to surfing at My Khe / Da Nang can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu.

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 My Khe / Da Nang 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.
