The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here again, giving you the same outlook in feet and Fahrenheit.
We’ve got a solid run of surf kicking off this Monday morning, the 7th of September. The water is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, sitting at 69°, so a thinner wetsuit might do. The first session Monday morning is a real gem – glassy conditions with a clean 3ft swell from the WNW, period of 13 seconds. That’s proper groundswell energy, and the combined energy reading is 411, which is moderate but nicely formed. The wind is dead calm, so it’ll be clean as a whistle. This is a standout for the week.
The pattern holds through Tuesday and Wednesday mornings with clean, surfable waves around the 3ft to 5ft mark, but the real prize is on Sunday the 13th of September. That morning we’re looking at a solid 6ft of NNW swell with a 13-second period and a combined energy of 975 – that’s strong wave energy. Winds are light and cross-offshore, so it’s going to be clean and lined up. The swell is a bit on the bigger side for beginners, but it’s a cracking window for intermediates.
We do have a bit of a lull from Friday the 11th through Saturday the 12th, with small, weak energy dropping to 1ft. That’s a couple of quiet days, but nothing to worry about. The surf picks up again on Sunday.
Heading into the second week, the standout is absolutely Monday the 21st of September. Monday morning offers a glassy 7ft swell from the NNW, period of 12 seconds, and a combined energy of 1379 – that’s strong, powerful stuff. This is for experienced surfers only; it’s too big for beginners. With the wind glassy and the swell direction lining up with the optimum NW, this is the best window of the whole outlook. The rest of that week fades with smaller, choppier conditions, and by Tuesday the 22nd, onshore winds and rain shut it down.
So, the pick of the bunch: Monday morning, September 7th for the glassy, clean start, and Monday morning, September 21st for the big, powerful swell that’s going to have the reefs and points working. Get out there.
Rusty.
