The Lowdown

Alright, Rusty here. Let’s size this up.

The next 16 days at Ninja’s are a ride with a lot of weather and wind to push through. There’s a solid run of swell, but only one window that really feels like the stars line up. This is a reef setup, so it handles the long-period groundswell well, but we need the wind to cooperate.

Kicking off Tuesday the 8th, it’s small with 1.2m from the SSE and a light cross-on. The wave energy is moderate (493). Water temp is 86°F, a touch warmer than average.

Wednesday morning the 9th is the whole reason to look at this forecast. We’ve got 1.2m from the SE, a light cross-offshore wind at 10 km/h, and clean conditions. The combined energy is solid (610). That’s the one session in the whole fortnight that has good wind, decent swell, and a break that takes that south swell well. It’s the standout.

Thursday the 10th through Sunday the 13th is where the swell gets serious, but the wind keeps company. The swell climbs from 1.4m to 1.6m from the SSW, with very strong combined energy (1527 to 2692). The period is long, between 15 and 19 seconds, meaning these are proper groundswells that will wrap into the reef nicely. But the wind is a steady cross-off W at 20 to 25 km/h, and there’s a risk of tstorms most afternoons. The sets will be spaced out, making the paddle easier. It’s surfable and fun, but not perfect.

Monday the 14th throws a curveball: 2.4m from the SW, but it’s a short-period 8-second windswell with the wind ripping at 30 km/h. That’s heavy and messy, and only for advanced guys on a reef.

From Tuesday the 15th onward, it’s a slide. Swell stays 0.7m to 1.3m from the SSW, but the wind builds and turns more onshore. Wednesday the 16th sees fresh cross-off winds that are too strong for fun surfing. By Thursday the 17th into the final week, cross-shore winds and lumpy, choppy conditions take over, with wave energy dropping to weak (299). The last week is basically a kite surfer’s playground with that cross-shore wind, not a good paddle-surf setup.

The one to circle: Wednesday morning, September 9th. Clean, light wind, 1.2m of SE swell. That’s your window if you want the best the forecast has to offer. After that, it’s a fight with the wind for a week, then a flat, blown-out week.

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.
