The Lowdown

Imperial

Alright crew, Rusty here, talking surf for the next couple weeks. We’ve only got one spot on the menu, but it’s got some juice.

The real action starts Monday, August 18th. Ninja’s, a reef break, is going to be firing. We’re looking at a solid SSW swell pushing 6 to 7 feet with a long 18-second period – that’s true groundswell energy. Wave energy is high (combined energy 2355 to 2499). The wind is light out of the west, cross-offshore, so the waves will be clean and glassy. This is big for most folks – anything over 5 feet is pushing it for beginners, and at this size with that period, it’s for experienced surfers only. This is the standout of the whole forecast. Tuesday the 19th keeps it going with 5 to 4 feet SSW swell, still clean with that offshore breeze, and the energy is still solid (1848 to 1531). A fantastic couple of days.

After that, it drops off. Thursday the 21st has a smaller pulse of 4 feet S swell at 14 seconds, but the wind gets a little cross-shore, making it sloppy. Energy drops to 658. Friday and the weekend are tiny, around 3 to 4 feet, with the period dropping below 10 seconds – that’s weak, short-period stuff. The wind is mostly cross-off, so it’s clean, but there’s next to no push.

There’s another window of hope further out. Tuesday the 26th of August has a nice spike: 5 feet SSW swell at 16 seconds with light wind in the morning (combined energy 966). Clean and with some real shape. That holds into Wednesday the 27th.

And looking way, way out – Saturday the 29th of August – there’s a pulse of 5 feet SW swell with a 16-second period and clean, cross-off winds. Energy is decent (1613). The forecast says excellent for experienced surfers. It’s a long-range promise, so don’t hold your breath, but it’s something to dream on.

The rest of the days are small and weak. Beginners might find something clean and tiny around 3 to 3 feet on the 22nd or 24th, but it’s not going to blow your mind.

Keep an eye on the charts, and stay safe out there. Rusty out.

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.
