The Lowdown
Alright, folks, Rusty here. Let's break down the Da Nang situation.
The water temp is about what you'd expect for this time of year, nothing weird going on.
Honestly, this 16-day stretch is a tough one. There's a long dry spell at the start with nothing to get excited about. The only real pulse of size shows up way out at the end of the forecast.
The one to circle on the calendar is Monday, September 14th at My Khe / Da Nang. The morning session is looking at a 5ft swell from the NE with a period of 7 seconds. It's a short-period windswell, but the energy is there (225), making it moderate. The wind is a light cross-shore from the NNE, which will keep it clean enough. For a beach break, that short period means it'll be a bit crumbly, but the size is there. At 5ft, it's pushing past beginner territory, so this is for the competent crew. The morning is definitely the pick.
Before that, it's slim pickings. Sunday, August 30th has a 3ft windswell in the afternoon with a clean offshore wind, but the energy is weak (79). You'll be fighting for tiny waves. Monday, August 31st afternoon brings a 6ft swell from the NW, the biggest of the first week, but it's messy, short-period junk. The combined energy (324) is moderate, but the wind is a cross-offshore and the quality is poor. That setup is more for a kiteboard than a surfboard.
The entire middle of the forecast from September 1st through the 13th is a washout. Tiny waves and onshore or cross-shore winds dominate. There's a glassy morning on Thursday, September 3rd, but it's only 2ft – just a flat, clean lake.
So, the long shot is September 14th. It's a real promise, but it's two weeks out and the quality is a flip of the coin. The rest of the time, leave the boards at home.
Rusty.
