The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s coming down the line for Ninja's. It’s a bit of a quiet start, to be honest. The first few days ain't offering much that’ll get you out of bed, with the swell hanging around 2ft to 3ft. The wind is mostly cross or cross-off, but the wave energy is weak with readings like 477 and 569, so it’s more of a paddle than a surf. The water temp is sitting at a warm 85°, which is about average for this time of year, so no shock there.

Wednesday the 29th and Thursday the 30th are pretty marginal—you’ll be fighting for scraps. Friday the 31st looks even worse with those stronger cross winds picking up to 22 mph, making things lumpy. Then there’s a bit of a gap through the first couple of days of August. Saturday the 1st sees a cleaner session with a 3ft swell from the SW and a gentle breeze, but still nothing to write home about.

Now, Sunday the 2nd of August is where things start to perk up. The morning shows a moderate 3ft swell from the S, but the period is short at 8 seconds, so it won’t have much push. The afternoon is where it’s at: the wind turns offshore from the NNW at 15 mph, cleaning up that 3ft S swell. The energy is low (262), but for a beginner-friendly reef break that’s fairly consistent, this is the best window in the early part of the forecast. The water’s 85°, so you’ll be comfy in boardshorts.

The real standout, though, is shaping up for Monday the 5th of August. The afternoon brings a 4ft swell from the SSW with a long period of 18 seconds, pumping in with a combined energy of 938 (moderate). That’s a proper groundswell. The wind is cross-off from the W at 15 mph, which should keep the face clean. For a reef break like Ninja's, this long-period swell is going to line up nicely, especially with the optimum swell direction coming from the S. This is the one to circle on the calendar. Crowds are likely here, so get in early.

From the 7th of August onward, the swell builds to 5ft from the S, but the wind turns more cross and the period drops to 10-11 seconds. It’s not as clean, and the energy is moderate but the wind chops it up. For a beginner spot, 5ft is getting a bit pushy, but a confident surfer will find some fun. By the 11th of August, we’re looking at 6ft at 11 seconds from the SSE, but the cross winds stay on it, making it a bit of a battle. Honestly, after the 5th, nothing else really stands out as a classic session.

So, bottom line: Sunday the 2nd morning is a decent clean-up, but the real gem is Monday the 5th of August afternoon. Lock it in. After that, things get a bit average and messy.

Rusty.

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.
