The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s coming down the line for the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, it’s a pretty grim start. We’re staring down a long, quiet stretch with nothing worth paddling out for. From now until the 5th of August, it’s a total write-off. Tiny, weak swell, and the wind is all over the shop – mostly onshore or cross-shore. The wave energy is pitiful, barely registering, and the surf reports are just calling it poor. It’s going to be a frustrating week and a half for anyone checking the charts.
But hang tight, because the end of the tunnel is worth the wait. The real action kicks off on the 6th of August. By Thursday morning, the energy is building with a moderate 165 reading, and by Thursday afternoon at Nam O Point (beach/jetty), it’s looking clean and glassy. The swell is from the ENE at 2ft with a very long period of 17 seconds. That’s proper groundswell energy, and the wave energy jumps to 250 – solid stuff. The wind is glassy, so the surface will be smooth as silk.
Then the 7th of August (Friday) is the standout. The swell picks up to 3ft to 3ft from the ENE, still holding that long 17-18 second period. The wave energy is pumping at 364 to 452, and the wind is offshore from the WSW. That’s the magic combo: clean, lined-up waves with that long-period push. This is the best on offer for the whole forecast. It stays clean through the weekend, and by the 9th of August (Sunday), the swell nudges up to 4ft with very strong wave energy (708) and moderate offshore winds. It’s going to be a proper session. The only thing to keep in mind with that long period (17-18 seconds) is it can make the waves a bit straight at a beach break, but with offshore wind, it should still hold good shape.
After that, the swell drops off quickly by the 11th of August, so don’t sleep on that window from the 6th to the 10th. The 6th afternoon through the 10th is your prime time. The water temp is about average for this time of year, nothing wild.
So, there’s a lot of flat to wade through, but the payoff is a solid late-summer run. Keep the wetsuit handy.
Rusty.
