The Lowdown

Alright, Rusty here again, breaking it down for you in feet and miles per hour.

This outlook is a tricky one. We’ve got a long stretch of nothing good, so you’ll want to save your energy. The first real chance to paddle out doesn’t show up for several days.

The only break in the picture is Ninja's, a reef setup that breaks fairly often but can get packed – expect company. Water temp is about 87°F, which is a touch warmer than the norm.

Things kick off on Friday the 11th, and it’s a bust. Swell is around 5ft from the SSW with a long 16-second period, but a WNW cross-off breeze at 18 mph is ruining it. The wave energy is strong (2740), but the quality is poor with dodgy tide conditions.

Through the weekend and into the start of next week, we see waist-to-chest high swell, still from the SSW, but the wind stays cross-off or onshore. Wave energy drops from moderate to weak (1873 down to 784). All marginal stuff.

Tuesday the 15th afternoon is your best shot. This is the one. Swell at 4ft from the SSW, around 14 seconds, and the wind switches to a clean offshore from the NW at 15 mph. Wave energy is a solid 1026, and the report calls it “excellent surf conditions for experienced surfers.” It’ll be clean, well-shaped, and that offshore breeze will keep the waves open. Reef breaks love a long-period SSW groundswell like this. Not for beginners though – the power will be real.

Wednesday the 16th still has some life. Morning brings 3ft SSW swell with offshore NNW wind at 15 mph, clean. The afternoon picks up to 4ft, same wind – a decent backup.

From Thursday the 17th, it’s all downhill. Swell drops to knee-high or less, winds go cross or cross-off, and the energy falls into the weak zone (430 and below). From Friday the 18th right through to Saturday the 26th, it’s a long, flat stretch. Most days are “poor surf conditions” with lumpy cross-chop. Energy readings are low (380 down to 165). It’s mostly a kite boarder’s breeze.

Bottom line: the only real window is Tuesday the 15th, with a possible follow-up on Wednesday the 16th. After that, expect over a week of flat, messy seas. The reef at Ninja's will turn on for that mid-week window, but don’t hold your breath for much else. That’s the long and short of it.

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.
