The Lowdown

Alright mates, Rusty here. Let’s break down the surf. We’ve got a long stretch of just okay conditions, with a few clean windows later. The best bet is around the 4th and 5th of August, and there’s a really long-period swell on the 7th that could be interesting if the wind stays right.

First up, we’re looking at Ninja's. It’s a reef break, good for beginners, and it breaks fairly regularly. On Sunday the 26th of July, the water is 85.5°, which is pretty normal for this time of year. The afternoon brings a clean 4.6ft swell from the SE, with a 11-second period, and a cross-off breeze from the WNW at 12 mph. The combined wave energy is moderate at 769, so there’s some push behind it.

Monday the 27th is similar, with clean, waist-high waves in the morning (4.3ft, SE) and a bit smaller in the afternoon at 3.9ft. Winds are cross-off and light, so the surface will be clean, but it’s not a classic day.

Tuesday the 28th, the wind goes cross-shore, and the swell drops. The morning has a 2.6ft swell from the SSW with a very long 16-second period. That’s a proper groundswell, but it’s tiny. The afternoon picks up to 3.6ft from the SE, but the cross-shore wind will put a slight chop on the face.

Wednesday the 29th and Thursday the 30th are the same story: small, cross-shore winds, and a moderate cross-chop. The swell is from the SW and SSW, with long periods (16-20 seconds), but the wave heights are only 2.0ft to 3.0ft. The energy is moderate (506-682), but the size just isn’t there.

Friday the 31st of July brings a cleaner window. The morning has a 3.3ft SE swell with a 10-second period, and a cross-off wind from the W. The combined energy is 366, which is weak. The afternoon jumps to a 3.0ft SSW swell with a 17-second period, pumping the energy to 720. Clean again, but still small.

Saturday the 1st of August is clean, but the swell is dropping. 3.0ft from the SW with a 15-second period in the morning, and 2.6ft in the afternoon. Nothing special.

Now, the best window is looking like Monday the 4th and Tuesday the 5th of August. On Monday morning, we get a solid 3.9ft from the SSW, with a 16-second period and a clean cross-off wind. The combined energy jumps to 745. That’s a good, punchy groundswell hitting the reef with clean conditions. Tuesday is similar, 3.6ft to 3.9ft from the SSW, 16-second period, clean cross-off wind, and energy in the 600-745 range. This is the best run of the forecast. The SSW direction is spot on for this break.

Wednesday the 5th afternoon is still clean, with 3.3ft from the SSW, but the wind goes cross-shore on Thursday the 6th, and the swell drops. The 6th is a write-off with poor conditions.

Then, on Friday the 7th of August, we get a very long-period pulse. The morning sees a 3.0ft swell from the SSW with a 20-second period and a fresh cross-off breeze. The energy is 767. That’s a massive period for a small wave. It will be a proper groundswell, but it might be a bit too straight for a reef, so you’ll need to find the right peak. The afternoon is smaller, 2.0ft from the S with a 20-second period. The wind stays fresh cross-off. Saturday the 8th is similar, with 2.3ft from the S, but the wind is strong at 19 mph, making it a tough paddle.

The last hope is Monday the 10th of August. The afternoon shows a 4.9ft SSE swell with an 11-second period and a moderate cross-off wind. The energy is 747, so it’s got some grunt, but the SSE direction is not the best for Ninja's, so it will be a bit lumpy.

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.
