The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s see what we’ve got lined up for Narrabeen-Alley Rights. This is a beach/sandbar setup that’s very consistent with an exposed outlook, so it’s usually sniffing at whatever swell is around. The water's sitting at 63°F and the anomaly is -2°F, so it’s a touch cooler than average for this time of year but nothing too wild.

The first session worth paddling out for is Saturday morning, 8 August. It’s small, just 2ft of SSE swell, but with a clean 5 km/h W cross-off breeze, it’ll be workable. It’s a slow start, but you can get a few if you’re keen.

The real action starts to build on Sunday morning, 9 August. We’ve got 4ft of ENE swell pushing in with a nice 9-second period, combined energy of 224 (moderate), and a clean N cross-off breeze. This is the first good look of the window. The swell is a bit straight for the sandbar with that period, but it’s clean and fun.

Monday morning, 10 August, is the standout. The swell jumps to 6ft from the ENE, still 9 seconds, but the energy is pumping at 591 (strong). On top of that, we’ve got a 30 km/h offshore NW wind. That’s fresh offshore and clean. This is the best on offer for the whole run – solid, offshore, and punchy. It’s a bit big for beginners, but for the advanced crew, it’s a go.

After Monday, it drops off quickly. Tuesday and Wednesday have small, clean waves but nothing to get excited about. From Thursday morning, 13 August, we hit a rough patch. For the next week, the wind turns onshore or cross-on, and the swell stays tiny, often under 2ft. The energy is weak, and the conditions are poor. This is a real drought.

But hold on – there’s a light at the end of the tunnel. Thursday morning, 20 August, brings a 4ft SSE groundswell with a very long 13-second period. The combined energy is 501 (strong), and the wind is glassy at 5 km/h from the NE. This will be clean, powerful, and lined up. The long period means it’ll break better on the sandbar than a short-period swell, so keep an eye on this one. It’s a promising long-range call, but it’s two weeks out, so don’t book the week off just yet.

All in all, the standout is clearly Monday morning, 10 August, for that offshore, solid ENE swell. The Thursday 20 August glassy groundswell is a distant second, but it’s a beauty if it holds.

Rusty.

A general guide to surfing at Narrabeen-Alley Rights can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu.
