Updates in  hr  min  s Forecast update imminent

Righto folks, Rusty here, and we are staring down a pretty lean stretch for the Narrabeen-Alley Rights. This beach/sandbar setup in Northern Sydney is usually reliable, but it's gonna be a test of patience over the next two and a bit weeks.

The water temp's sitting on 66°, which is pretty average for this time of year, so nothing crazy there. But don't get too comfortable, because the surf is looking flat for the first several days. Saturday the 4th and Sunday the 5th are a write-off with tiny, onshore junk. Monday the 6th through Thursday the 9th sees a jump in size as a proper solid swell arrives, but it’s hammered by strong onshore winds. Think 8ft of lumpy, stormy mess with the combined swell energy sitting between 1047 and 3805 – that's a lot of raw power, but with that S/SSE wind, it’s more of a battleground than a surf session.

The real standout, the only window that looks worth your time, is Friday the 10th. That morning we get a nice 7ft SSE groundswell (period hitting 11 seconds) with a light W wind, cross-off, creating clean conditions. Massive energy reading too at 1102, so there's proper grunt in the water. To top it off, Friday afternoon looks even better: glassy conditions with a 7ft SSE swell and a NNE wind so light it's almost nothing. That’s the one to circle. The combined swell energy backs off a touch to 980, but with glass it'll be the pick of the whole period.

Into Saturday the 11th, we’ve still got good waves with a 5ft SE swell and clean winds – but the size and energy drop compared to Friday. Sunday the 12th onward sees a steady decline into tiny weak stuff and long gaps with nothing. From the 14th to the 19th it's basically a flat spell, with only a tiny 4ft SSW bump on Saturday the 18th, but that’s more of a novelty than a serious option.

For kite surfers, that windy mess from Monday the 6th through Wednesday the 8th will look more interesting than it will for paddle surfers – big swell and strong S wind is not your friend on a beach break.

Keep your eye on Friday the 10th. That's the day.

Rusty

Information about the Narrabeen-Alley Rights Surf forecast

The above surf forecast table for Narrabeen-Alley Rights provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Narrabeen-Alley Rights can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Narrabeen-Alley Rights 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 (Narrabeen-Alley Rights) 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 Narrabeen-Alley Rights 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.

Narrabeen-Alley Rights is 5 km (3 miles) from Dee Why. If you plan a holiday in Sydney North Coast, look for hotels and other accommodation in Dee Why. Dee Why has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
