The Lowdown
G'day, Rusty here. Let's talk about what's coming. We've got a slow start, but the second half of this forecast is where the real action is.
The water is sitting at about 76°F at One Eye, which is a touch warmer than usual for this time of year. The first few days are a bit of a write-off. From Sunday, August 30th, through Tuesday, September 2nd, we're looking at marginal surf with questionable conditions. The swell is small and the energy is weak. Don't bother paddling out yet.
We start to see a glimmer of hope on Wednesday, September 3rd, but it's still small. The real build-up begins on Friday, September 4th, with a 4ft SSW swell showing up, but it's still a bit messy. Then, Saturday, September 5th, is where it gets interesting. The morning brings a solid 6ft SW swell with a period of 15 seconds, and the wind is a clean offshore from the ESE at 12 mph. The combined energy is pumping, and it's described as excellent for experienced surfers. This is a standout. The afternoon holds similar quality at 6ft with the same clean offshore wind.
Sunday, September 6th, is still very good, with the swell dropping to 4ft but the wind going glassy in the afternoon. That's a beautiful session for a longboard or a funboard.
Now, the second week. Monday, September 7th, looks promising with a 3ft SSW swell, but the wind turns cross-off in the morning. The real eye-catcher is Wednesday, September 9th. The morning delivers a clean 8ft SW swell with a solid 16-second period and a light offshore breeze. The combined energy is massive. This is for experts only—it's going to be a proper, powerful groundswell. That long period means it'll be barreling, but it might break a bit too straight for the beachies, so stick to the reef at One Eye for the best shape.
Thursday, September 10th, is still solid with a 5ft S swell and glassy conditions in the afternoon. Friday, September 11th, is also very good with a 5ft S swell and clean conditions. The weekend of the 12th and 13th sees the swell dropping back, but it remains clean and fun.
The standout is clear: Saturday, September 5th, for the first big push, and Wednesday, September 9th, for the peak of the swell. Crowds are possible at One Eye, especially on those days, so get in early.
Rusty.

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