The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s get into it for Point Dume Little Dume. This is a classic point break that takes a good south swell to get going, and it’s a bit of a waiting game this forecast period. The first few days are a write-off, so don't bother getting the board wet until we get a proper change in the weather.

The first real glimmer of hope comes on Sunday, September 6th. The wind swings around to a light off-shore from the north-northeast, and that’s a game-changer. We’ve got a clean 4ft to 4ft south swell rolling in with a period of 13 to 14 seconds. The combined energy is moderate (815 to 889), so there’s some push behind it. The water temp is about average for this time of year, so a 3/2mm will be fine. This is the standout window. It’s a bit inconsistent, and the crowds can be a problem here, but the conditions are set to be really clean. That offshore wind will make the point look like glass.

Then Monday, September 7th picks up right where Sunday left off, only better. The swell bumps up to 5ft from the south, still with that lovely 13-second period, and the wind is pure offshore from the north-northeast and even east-northeast. The energy is strong (783 to 828). This is the best on offer, no question. If you’re an intermediate or above, this is the call. The swell direction is a touch south of the optimum, but with that wind, it’ll still be a fantastic wave.

After that, things get messy. The wind swings back onshore by Tuesday afternoon, and the swell drops off. The rest of the second week is a slow fade into tiny, weak, and choppy conditions. There’s a little pulse of 2ft to 3ft from the southwest around the 10th and 11th, but the wind is on it, and the quality just isn’t there. The forecast for the 16th shows nothing but tiny, poor surf.

So, to sum it up for you: the real window is Sunday, September 6th through Monday, September 7th. That’s your best bet. The next few days after that are for the kites, not the paddlers.

Rusty.
