The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here again. Gotta be straight with you—this stretch is looking flat as a pancake for a good while. From Friday the 28th of August through to Monday the 7th of September, there’s just no surf to speak of. We’re talking waves barely a foot high, if that, and the conditions are all over the place. The energy readings are tiny—most of the time under 30 or 40. It’s a solid ten-day gap of nothing worth paddling for.
Finally, around Tuesday the 8th of September, there’s a tiny flicker of life. North Myrtle/27th Avenue South is our only option. It’s an exposed beach break, and early Tuesday morning we get a little bump of 3ft of short-period swell out of the southwest. A light offshore breeze from the north keeps the surface glassy. The energy reading climbs to 70—still weak, but it’s something. Water temp is a warm 83°, which is right where it should be for this time of year. The swell direction isn’t perfect (this spot likes a SSE angle), but for a few hours, you might snag a few crumbly little runners if you’re keen. This spot can get crowded, but on a tiny morning like this, you might have it quiet.
Wednesday the 9th of September morning is another brief window—about 3ft of SSW swell, with a light cross-offshore breeze keeping it clean. The combined energy finally bumps into the moderate range at 107, which is the best we’ll see all forecast. Still small and short-period, but the wind is right, so the surface will be smooth. It won’t last, though; the onshores blow it out by the afternoon.
After that, from the 10th through the 12th, it’s back to tiny, weak dribble. A couple of mornings might look flat calm, but the swell is just gone. If you’re itching to get wet, the early hours of the 8th and 9th are your only real hope. Otherwise, it’s a waiting game.
Rusty.
