The Lowdown

Alright, Rusty here. Let’s talk about what’s cooking for the next couple of weeks at Ninja's.

Right now, we’re in a bit of a flat spell. The first solid wave energy shows up on Wednesday the 26th of August, but it’s nothing to write home about. We’ve got waist-high, 3ft swell from the SSW with a long period of 16 seconds. That long period gives it real groundswell power, with the combined energy hitting 556 (moderate). That’s the kind of swell that needs a setup like this reef break here to line up properly. Wednesday afternoon cleans up nicely with light offshore cross-off wind, so the surface will be clean.

Thursday the 27th sees the size bump up a bit, to 5ft in the morning from the SSW, still hanging around that 16-second interval, and wave energy jumps way up to 1210 (strong). But winds are lighter cross-shore, so there’ll be a few ripples on the face. It’s still surfable, but not glassy.

Things take a real step forward on Saturday the 30th. The morning hits 6ft from the SSW, period at 18 seconds, and combined energy is through the roof at 2313 (very strong). That’s big groundswell. The wind is offshore, cross-off, so the face will be clean. This is expert territory though, over 8ft is for experts only, and 6ft is already solid and not for beginners. The afternoon sees a tiny drop to 5ft but energy stays high at 2326. Both sessions look promising for strong, well-shaped waves.

Sunday the 31st is a standout. Morning swell hits 7ft from the SSW, period 16 seconds, with energy at 2465 (very strong). Winds stay cross-off and clean. That’s easily the biggest, cleanest window of the whole outlook. This is only for very experienced surfers though, as that size at a reef break with that kind of energy is no joke. Crowds here are possible (often), so expect company.

After that, the size starts to back down into the first week of September. By the morning of September 6th and 7th, we get glassy, 5ft to 4ft surf from the SSE, with no wind at all – dead glass. That’s a beautiful, mellow window for any level, with clean conditions and a much more relaxed vibe. The water temperature is sitting around 85° here, which is about average for the time of year.

The last real highlight shows up on Tuesday the 8th of September. Swell is small at 3ft but period is 18 seconds from the SSW and energy is 755 (moderate). Winds are glassy in the morning, then light offshore in the afternoon. That’s clean little groundswell, perfect for the reef.

If I had to pick the single best session of the outlook, it’s Sunday August 31st morning – 7ft, clean, powerful SSW groundswell. For a cleaner, smaller option, Sunday September 6th morning is glassy perfection on 5ft.

Rusty, signing off.

Information about the Ninja's Surf forecast

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