The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s break down what’s happening.
The water’s sitting at about 80°, which is pretty normal for this time of year. First thing though: the wind is gonna be the spoiler for a while.
Right now, through the end of August and into early September, we’ve got a steady ESE wind at 15-16 mph, coming cross-onshore. The swell is running 5 to 7 feet from the SSW and SW, with moderate to strong energy, but that wind is chopping it all up. Conditions are poor, so don’t bother. This stretch is a washout. It stays this way into the morning of Tuesday the 2nd of September.
Tuesday the 2nd September is still marginal at best. A 7-foot SW swell with a decent 16-second period, but the cross-shore wind makes it lumpy. Not worth it.
3rd and 4th September – still cross-onshore, still poor. Swell drops to 5-5 feet, energy fades. A big gap of nothing.
5th September – Saturday – a tiny glimmer. Swell bumps to 6-6 feet from the SSW, wind eases to 12 mph, but it’s still cross-onshore and choppy. Marginal at best.
Now listen, here’s the standout. The real window is Tuesday the 8th of September. That morning we get a solid 10-foot SSW swell with a long 18-second period and strong energy. The wind is light from the SSE at 9 mph. Still cross-onshore, but gentle.
Tuesday afternoon is your moment. Swell stays at 10 feet from the SSW, 17-second period, and the wind goes very light, likely glassy. The energy is massive. For the advanced crew, this is the pick. Nyang-Nyang is a reef, so that long-period groundswell will wrap in perfect. It’s exposed to the SW, which is the best direction. Crowds are possible, so get in early.
Wednesday the 9th September is nearly as good. 10-foot SSW swell, 17-second period, and the wind goes straight offshore from the S at only 6 mph in the morning. That’s glassy, clean conditions on a big swell. Another top day for experts.
10th September – swell backs off to 8 feet, wind picks up.
From the 11th to the 14th of September we’re back into poor conditions. ESE and SE winds at 12-16 mph, cross-onshore, with a messy 6-8 foot swell. Rain showers and even thunderstorms on the 13th. Not worth it.
So, bottom line: skip this week. Wait for Tuesday the 8th and Wednesday the 9th of September. That’s your window. Big, clean, powerful surf for experienced surfers only. Anything over 8 feet is for the experts.
Stay sharp,
Rusty

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