Outside Corner Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Gather 'round, crew. Let's talk about the next couple of weeks. We've got a solid run of swell on the cards for Outside Corner, a classic reef and point set-up that knows how to handle a groundswell. It's a fairly consistent spot, but it's an advanced wave, so don't be a hero if you're not ready for it. The water temp is sitting about average for this time of year, so you'll be fine in a spring suit.

The action kicks off Monday, the 31st of August. The morning session is a bit of a warm-up with some 4ft SSW groundswell. The energy is already strong (1367), but the real story is the afternoon. That swell bumps up to 6ft from the SSW, with a clean 18-second period. The wind is a moderate offshore from the ESE, keeping it glassy. That's a good session for experienced surfers.

Tuesday, the 1st of September, the swell builds to 6ft and then 7ft from the SW, with a fresh offshore breeze. It's a lot of power, but it might be a little tricky with the tide. Wednesday the 2nd, the afternoon looks better – 6ft of SW groundswell, moderate offshore, and the conditions are said to be excellent for experienced surfers.

We get a bit of a lull Thursday and Friday, but the energy picks up again with a new pulse on Saturday the 5th. Saturday morning is a standout with 6ft from the SSW, a moderate offshore, and excellent conditions for experienced surfers. The energy is moderate (1059). Sunday the 6th is a bit mixed with cross-off winds, but the swell is solid.

Now, listen up. The real highlight is a multi-day window starting Monday the 7th of September. It's a solid run of SSW groundswell. Monday morning has 7ft of swell with a moderate offshore, making it excellent for the experienced crew. The energy is moderate (1819). Tuesday the 8th afternoon is a serious standout: 6ft of SSW groundswell with a very long 18-second period, clean offshore wind, and the energy is already strong (3213). That's a real treat for the point.

But the absolute best of the bunch looks to be Wednesday the 9th of September. The morning is a 7ft SSW groundswell with a 21-second period – that's super long period groundswell, folks. It's going to have incredible energy (6320) and shape. The wind is a gentle cross-off, so it'll be clean. The afternoon is even bigger at 7ft, still with a 20-second period. This is for experts only. The swell is massive, the period is dreamy, and the energy is off the charts. This is a true standout.

The following week holds plenty more. Thursday the 10th has 10ft SSW swell in the morning, and Friday the 11th keeps it around 7ft. The conditions stay clean with light to gentle cross-off breezes. The energy remains strong to very strong. Saturday the 12th morning has a gentle offshore, which is a nice change. The run continues with solid swell and decent winds right through to Tuesday the 15th of September. It's a long, consistent run of quality groundswell for those who can handle it.
