The Lowdown

Hey, Rusty here, and I’ve got a solid look at the forecast for Nungas. This is a reef and point set-up that’s fairly consistent and works best with a south-west swell direction. The water temperature is about average for the time of year, nothing too wild.

We’re looking at a slow start. Monday the 27th of July is a write-off – tiny 2ft swell with poor surf conditions and a moderate cross-off breeze. Not worth paddling out. Tuesday the 28th sees a bump up to 3ft of SSW swell, period stretching to 16 seconds, and the energy is moderate (496). The wind is a gentle cross-off, and the surf is clean. It’s a small, workable day for a beginner. Wednesday the 29th holds 4ft SSW swell, clean but still a bit marginal with the tide. Thursday the 30th kicks up to 4ft, and the energy jumps to strong (1136) in the afternoon, but it’s still a bit marginal. Friday the 31st of July is when it starts to get interesting. The morning has 4ft of SSW swell at a very long 17 seconds, with moderate energy (1328) and a gentle cross-off. The surf is very good and clean. That’s a solid session.

Now, the standout. Saturday the 1st of August is the real gem. The morning brings 5ft SSW swell, 16-second period, and the energy is strong (1617). The wind is light and cross-off, the surf is excellent for experienced surfers – but over 5ft, so it’s starting to push beyond beginner territory. The waves will be clean with good shape. Crowds are possible at this spot, so get in early. The optimum swell direction matches perfectly.

After that, the swell just keeps building. Sunday the 2nd shows 6ft, then 7ft, with energy climbing to 2631. This is expert territory over 8ft later in the run. Monday the 3rd of August is another cracker with 7ft SSW swell, 16 seconds, and excellent conditions for experienced surfers, light winds. The energy is very strong (1982). The whole first week of August is firing, with surf staying above 5ft right through to the 11th. By the 9th of August, we’re looking at 10ft of SSW swell – that’s heavy, only for experts. The energy is massive (4272). The point and reef set-up will handle that long period groundswell well, but it’s going to be powerful.

The second week stays solid but winds are more moderate cross-off, so still clean. The real standouts are Saturday the 1st and Monday the 3rd of August, where everything lines up: strong swell, good direction, light winds, and excellent surf quality. Don’t sleep on that Friday the 31st either, it’s a beaut.

Talk soon,
Rusty

Information about the Nungas Surf forecast

The above surf forecast table for Nungas provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Nungas can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Nungas 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 (Nungas) 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 Nungas 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.
