The Lowdown

Alright, grab your stick and listen up. This is Rusty, giving you the goods for the next couple of weeks.

Right off the bat, the early part of the outlook is a bit of a flat patch. We’re looking at a slow start with small, weak swell and mostly cross or onshore winds making a mess of things. Not worth paddling out for, unless you’re after a long swim. The water here's sitting around 84.6°F, which is pretty much what you'd expect for this time of year, nothing wild going on there.

The real story, and I mean the *only* story worth getting excited about, kicks off on Monday the 17th. We start seeing a long-period groundswell filling in from the south-southwest. The period jumps right up there, hitting over 20 seconds on Monday afternoon. That kind of energy has the reef at Ninja's looking *real* interesting. But hold on, the wind is still a bit messy, so Monday is more of a warm-up.

Tuesday the 18th is the absolute standout. Get your board ready for the morning session. We’ve got a solid 6.2ft to 6.6ft SSW swell, running with a very long 18-second period. This is proper groundswell, the kind that wraps in with serious power. The wind goes light and clean from the west-northwest, giving us that glassy, cross-offshore texture. This is top-tier, clean surf. It’s a bit on the bigger side, over 5ft, so it’s not for the groms. This is for the crew who can handle a proper reef wave. Wednesday the 19th keeps the love going with solid 5.9ft SSW swell, still clean and long-period, but just a touch smaller. Thursday the 20th still has some nice, long-period S swell in the morning before things start to fade.

After that peak, we drop right back down. From the 21st onwards, it’s a poor run of small, weak swell and cross-shore winds. We’re looking at a solid week of nothing special. There’s a tiny pulse of energy right at the very end, on Friday the 28th of August, with a 4.6ft to 5.2ft SSW swell and a long 18-second period, but the wind is cross-onshore and choppy. It’s worth keeping an eye on, but don't bet the farm on it being clean.

So, mark your calendar. The best of the best is Tuesday the 18th and Wednesday the 19th at Ninja's. It’s a reef break, with a good S swell direction, and the wind is going to be perfect. It can get crowded here often, so get in early. This is a short window of pure magic.

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.
