The Lowdown
G'day, Rusty here. I’ve been staring at the charts for My Khe / Da Nang, and let me tell ya, it’s a tale of patience. The first week or so is a proper flat spell, nothing doing at all. We’re looking at a real dry patch from now, stretching all the way through to the morning of Wednesday, August 5th. That’s over five days with not a single wave worth paddling for. A real bummer for a spot that’s usually fairly reliable.
On Wednesday, August 5th, the morning finally shows a pulse. A tiny 1ft groundswell from the ENE, with a very long 18-second period. The combined energy is moderate (132), and with a light cross-offshore breeze, it’ll be clean. But it’s just that – tiny. Surfable, but you wouldn’t race down for it. The afternoon stays small and ordinary. Now, Thursday, August 6th, is the real standout. The morning pumps up to 3ft from the ENE, still packing that 18-second groundswell period, and the energy jumps to strong (522). The wind swings cross-offshore from the SW, laying it out glassy and clean. Expect very good surf conditions. That long-period energy will make for some beautiful, lined-up waves. Just know with a period that long, the sets will be far apart, but the quality will be unreal. 3ft is fine for beginners. Crowds can happen here, so you might have some company. The water temp is pretty average for this time of year.
The run continues into Friday, August 7th. The morning shows a solid 4ft swell from the ENE (18s, very long period), but a moderate 12 mph cross-offshore wind makes it a bit of a mixed call – clean, but maybe tricky with the tide. The afternoon is the one to aim for: 4ft swell, still 18 seconds, with a lighter cross-offshore breeze making for very good conditions again. Another top session. Saturday, August 8th, the swell starts to fade. The morning has a clean 3ft wave with a moderate offshore, but it’s listed as marginal. From the afternoon on, it’s a steady decline. The swell drops, the wind gets messy, and by Sunday, August 9th, we’re back to small, weak, and forgettable surf. The rest of the second week is a whole lot of nothing – tiny waves and poor conditions.
So, to cut a long story short, the only game in town is the mornings on Thursday, August 6th, and Friday, August 7th, either session. That’s your window for quality, clean, long-period groundswell. Be ready to wait for it, but it’ll be worth the patience.
Rusty.
