Surf Forecasts:
The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. I gotta level with you. I’ve scoured the charts for the next 16 days, and honestly, it’s a total flat spell. There’s just nothing coming in. Not a bump, not a ripple, not a whisper of a swell. So, we’re looking at a solid stretch of nothing from now all the way through until the end of the forecast on August 23rd. The wind is often clean, sometimes even glassy, and the water’s gonna be looking like a lake, but there’s no wave energy to work with. The combined energy is sitting at zero (0) for the whole run. It’s a bummer, for sure.
The only break we’ve got on the radar is Oshawa. It’s a fairly consistent spot, exposed to an ESE swell, but with nothing coming from that direction, it’s a total no-go. The best we can say is that the offshore and glassy conditions we’ll see on a few mornings (like the 14th, 17th, and 21st) would be perfect if there were any waves. But there aren’t. For a spot that’s usually fairly consistent, this kind of blank run is a bit of a surprise, but it happens. The forecasts can change, so keep your eyes peeled, but for now, leave the boards in the shed.
Rusty.

Information about the Oshawa Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Oshawa provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Oshawa can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Oshawa 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 (Oshawa) 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 Oshawa 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.
Oshawa is 3 km (2 miles) from the very large city of Etobicoke. If you plan a holiday in Lake Ontario - Canada, look for hotels and other accommodation in Etobicoke. Etobicoke has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as cheap car hire and transport links.
