The Lowdown
Alright folks, here we go. We’re looking at a slow start, with days of flatness and nothing to ride, then one real window of solid, clean groundswell that’ll get your blood pumping.
First few days, right through the 24th of August, it’s tiny. Combined swell energy is sitting in the teens to 30s (weak), and all you’re seeing is knee-high slop. Some light offshore breezes and even a glass-off on Sunday afternoon, but no wave push to ride. This is a waiting game.
The good stuff finally kicks in on Wednesday 26th August at My Khe / Da Nang, the only spot we’re looking at. Water temp’s around 87°F, right about average for the time of year. That Wednesday morning, we see a big jump to 304 combined energy (moderate) and it’s a real groundswell from the east-northeast, period a very long 19 seconds. Wave height is just 2ft, but with that period, the lines have shape and push. Winds are light offshore so the surface will be clean.
Wednesday afternoon keeps the quality up, energy hits 374 (moderate to strong), wave height up to 3ft, period 18 seconds, still east-northeast and offshore breeze. Thursday 27th holds similar—wave heights staying around 2ft, period 15 seconds, combined energy 208, with light offshore winds. This is your standout window. A beach break with very long period swell means sets will be clean and lined up, not as crazy as a point break but really good for the size.
After that, Friday 28th onward we drop back to tiny leftovers and onshore chop. The only other half-interesting day is Wednesday 4th September with early glassy conditions, a 3ft wave from the east-northeast and 123 combined energy, but it’s short period and mediocrity. Not a day to plan around.
The standout is the Wednesday 26th to Thursday 27th stretch: clean, long period groundswell, light winds, and the best waves you’ll see in the window.

Information about the My Khe / Da Nang Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for My Khe / Da Nang provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at My Khe / Da Nang can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our My Khe / Da Nang surf forecast is unique since it includes wave energy (power) that defines the real feel of the surf rather than just the height or the period. If you surf the same spot (My Khe / Da Nang) regularly then make a mental note of the wave energy from the surf forecast table each time you go. 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. Please always bear in mind that the forecast is for near-shore open water and local factors at each surf break influence the actual breaking wave height, such as the beach / reef profile, water depths offshore and shelter.
