The Lowdown
G'day, it's Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's on the menu for Nyang-Nyang over the next couple of weeks.
There's a lot of swell on the cards, but the wind is the enemy here. Most of the forecast period is plagued by a moderate to fresh cross-onshore breeze, which is making a mess of what would otherwise be some serious groundswell. The water temp is sitting about average for this time of year, so nothing unusual to report there.
The standout period is actually the first session, but it's a rough one. Thursday morning, August 13th, we've got a solid 10 ft SSW swell with a very long 17-second period. The energy is pumping at 4133, but that clear sky is betrayed by a 16 mph cross-onshore wind. It's described as poor surf conditions, and it'll be choppy. This is expert-only territory due to the size and the chop.
Things don't improve much. The morning of Friday, August 14th, is the closest we get to something workable. The swell drops to 7 ft from the SSW, with a 15-second period, and the wind eases to 12 mph, going cross-shore. The energy is still very strong at 2779. This is still a challenging, marginal session with a cross-chop, but it's the best window of the entire 16-day run. After that, it's a long slog of cross-onshore winds and poor conditions right through to the end of the month.
Given the persistent onshore wind and the strong, consistent swell, this setup is honestly more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing for most of the period. The swell is big, the energy is high, but the wind is just ruining the surface.
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.
