The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s cookin’ for Nungas over the next couple of weeks. We’ve got a solid run of swell on the horizon, so don’t be hangin’ up the wetsuit just yet.

The pattern kicks off this Friday, July 31st, with some clean, cross-off conditions. The water temp is sitting right on 80°, which is bang on average for this time of year, so no surprises there. The swell is a clean 4ft from the SSW with a very long period of 17 seconds, giving it a proper groundswell feel. The energy is strong (1279), and it’s a reef and point set-up, so that long period will wrap in nicely. Friday afternoon is a good session to ease into the weekend.

Saturday morning the 1st of August is a standout early. The swell bumps up a touch to 5ft from the SSW, still with that long 16-second period, and the wind is light and cross-off. The energy is solid (1491), and the conditions are glassy. This is the pick of the early part of the run. The swell holds through Sunday, getting a bit more size at 6ft to 7ft. Sunday morning is still manageable for a strong intermediate, but by Sunday afternoon, with 7ft and 17 seconds, it’s starting to push into experienced territory. That’s a great session for the crew who know what they’re doing.

Monday through Wednesday of the first week keeps a clean 6ft to 7ft range, with light to gentle cross-off winds. The energy is moderate to strong (1159-1519). Nothing too wild, but consistently good. The real standout in the first week is Thursday the 6th of August. The swell jumps to 7ft to 8ft from the SW and SSW, with periods of 17-18 seconds, and the energy is very strong (2810-3083). The wind is light, and the conditions are clean. That is a proper day for the experienced surfer.

Now, the second week gets interesting. The week of the 10th keeps a solid 7ft to 8ft, but the real highlight is Tuesday the 11th of August. We’re looking at a pumping 12ft from the SSW with a very long 19-second period, and the energy is exceptional (7926). That’s a big, powerful groundswell. The wind is light and cross-off, so it’s going to be a big day for the experts only. Anyone under an advanced level should stay on the beach for that one. This is the best on offer for the whole run, but it’s a long way out, so keep an eye on the charts.

The swell backs off a bit after that, but stays in the 6ft to 8ft range through the rest of the week, with another solid pulse pushing 10ft on the 15th. The consistent, clean conditions and the reef/point set-up make Nungas a great bet for this whole period. The crowds are only sometimes an issue here, so it’s a solid spot to get a few waves without the full circus.

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.
