The Lowdown

Alright, I’m looking at the next couple of weeks, and honestly, I’m not gonna sugarcoat it for you — this is a tough stretch. We’ve got a bit of a slow start with no real standouts, but there’s a window of decent energy in the middle if you’re patient. Let’s break it down.

Right now, through Sunday the 6th and Monday the 7th, it’s pretty lackluster. Swell’s hanging around 3 ft to 4 ft from the SSE with a period of 10 seconds, but the wind is cross or cross-on, and the wave energy is weak (305 to 340). The water temp is about average for this time of year, nothing wild. Honestly, it’s a bit of a write-off — just small, junky lines.

Things start to look a little more interesting from Tuesday the 8th onward. The swell stays small (4 ft, SSE) but the wind shifts to a clean cross-offshore from the W at 9 mph, and the wave energy bumps up to 435–455, which is moderate. It’s still not big, but it’ll be cleaner. Wednesday the 9th, the swell drops to 2 ft–3 ft but the period jumps to 17–18 seconds — that’s proper groundswell, but it’s small. That kind of long period is better suited for a reef or point break, and at Ninja’s (a reef), it could actually offer some fun, lined-up waves for the beginner-friendly crew. Wind is still cross-off at 12 mph, so it’s clean.

Now, the real kicker comes in on Thursday the 10th through Saturday the 12th. Swell picks up to 5 ft–5 ft from the SSW, with a period of 14–17 seconds, and the wave energy is strong — we’re talking 1605 to 2315. That’s a lot of energy coming through. Wind stays cross-off from the WNW to W at 12–16 mph, so the surf will be clean. This is the best window of the whole outlook. The swell is still manageable for most, but it’s not beginner territory at 5 ft. If you’re an intermediate or better, get out there. The SSW direction is a nice match for the optimum swell direction here, so expect some good shape at Ninja’s.

After that, from Sunday the 13th onward, it slowly backs off. Swell drops to 3 ft–4 ft, period shortens, and energy fades into the 700–900 range. The wind stays cross-off, so it’s still clean, but the punch is gone. By the 18th and 19th, we get a slight bump from the S and SSE, 4 ft–5 ft, period 10 seconds, but it’s a shorter-period swell, so it’ll be a bit more crumbly.

The real standout here is the window from Thursday the 10th to Saturday the 12th. That’s your best bet. It’s not perfect — the wind is a bit brisk at 12–16 mph — but it’s clean, and the energy is there. Just keep in mind that with a long period like that at a beach break, it can break a bit straight, but at a reef like Ninja’s, it should groom up nicely. Crowds are often here, so expect company.

All in all, it’s a slow start, a solid mid-period, and a taper-off. If you can only pick one day, aim for the 10th or 11th.

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.
