The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s break down the outlook for Nyang-Nyang.
Right off the bat, we’re looking at a long, dry spell. The first couple of weeks are pretty much a washout for a decent surf. We’ve got a solid, consistent SW groundswell coming in, but it’s getting hammered by a persistent ESE to SE wind, blowing cross-onshore. That’s creating lumpy, choppy, poor conditions day after day. The swell energy is there, but the wind is just ruining the surface. You’ll be fighting a bumpy mess.
The water temperature is sitting at 79°F, which is about normal for this time of year, so at least you won’t be freezing while you’re getting blown off your board.
For the first week, from Friday the 24th of July right through to the end of the month, it’s a no-go. The swell bumps up a bit, but the wind is relentless. On Sunday the 26th, the swell jumps to 8ft to 10ft, with a short period of 9 seconds, but with a 22 mph cross-onshore wind, that’s just a washing machine. That’s expert-only territory, and even then, it’s not going to be pretty.
We roll into the first week of August, and the pattern doesn’t let up. Lots of energy in the water, but the wind remains the same story. The standout size hits on the 4th of August (Tuesday), with an 8ft SSW swell, but again, it’s messy. The only flicker of hope comes on the 5th and 6th of August (Wednesday and Thursday mornings), where the wind swings to a "cross" state. The swell is a solid 5ft to 7ft, with a 14-16 second period from the SSW, so there’s potential for a better wave beneath the surface if the wind lays off. That’s your best bet, but it’s a gamble.
After that, the wind goes back to cross-onshore, and we’re back to poor conditions through the end of the forecast window on the 8th of August.
So, the honest truth: there are no real standout sessions here. The one morning session on the 5th of August (Wednesday) is the closest thing to a chance, but it’s marginal. For a break like Nyang-Nyang, a reef break that’s fairly consistent and exposed to the SW, this is a frustrating run. With that much cross-onshore wind, and the swell size getting big, the setup honestly looks more interesting for a kite surfer than for a paddle surfer in the second week.
Keep your wax in the car and your eyes on the forecasts. It can’t stay this wind-blown forever.
Rusty.
