The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s talk about what’s cookin’ at Nyang-Nyang. This is a real beaut of a reef break, but she’s picky, and she’s not gonna give it up easy. The water’s sitting at a warm 79°, which is right on the money for this time of year – no surprises there.
The thing is, the next week and a half is a bit of a tough pill to swallow. We’ve got a solid, long-period groundswell from the SSW showing up, with periods pushing 17 seconds. That’s the kind of energy that can make a reef like this absolutely pump, but the wind is just not playing ball. Through the first ten days, it’s a consistent cross-onshore from the SE or ESE, and that’s gonna keep the surface lumpy and choppy. The energy is massive – you’re looking at combined swell energy readings in the 1500 to 3800 range, but it’s all for nothing when the wind is junk. The wave comments are all “poor” or “marginal,” and honestly, I wouldn’t paddle out. It’s a shame, because there’s plenty of power in the water.
Now, hang tight. The real story starts to change around Thursday, August 13th. The wind is forecast to swing onshore, becoming light and clean from the south. That’s the game changer. On Thursday afternoon, we’re looking at a solid 12ft SSW groundswell with an 18-second period. The combined energy is a mind-blowing 8123 – that’s a serious ocean. The wind is light, 9 mph from the south, straight onshore. For a reef like Nyang-Nyang, this is the moment. The sets will be lined up, powerful, and clean. This is a big swell, over 8ft, so this is expert territory only. For the experienced surfer who knows the reef, this is the standout of the whole forecast.
Friday, August 14th keeps the magic going. The morning is glassy with a slight air, wind from the south at just 3 mph, and a 10ft SSW swell. The energy is still massive at 6704. The afternoon is similar with a light breeze. This is as good as it gets. The entire period is a complete write-off until that Thursday-Friday window. That’s a solid 12-day gap of no surf worth talking about. So, if you can wait, that’s your time. The crowd factor is “sometimes” at Nyang-Nyang, so on a day this good, expect a few other savvy locals to be out.
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.
