The Lowdown
G'day, it's Rusty here. Look, I'm gonna be straight with you—this is a tough one. The next few weeks are looking pretty flat and uninspiring for a wave. We’ve got a long stretch ahead with hardly anything worth getting wet for.
Starting from this Saturday the 5th, the whole week is a write-off. We're looking at tiny, weak dribbles with combined energy readings barely hitting double digits—mostly in the single digits—with short, choppy periods and a 0.7ft to 2ft range. The wind is all over the shop, mostly onshore or cross-onshore, which means messy, bumpy conditions. Even the glassy mornings on the 8th and 11th don't save it because there's just no swell to work with.
We get a little more into the second week, but it's still a bit of a letdown. From around the 16th of September, there's a slight pulse of energy, with the combined energy readings lifting to the 50s, 70s, and even 89 later in the week, but that’s still moderate energy at best. The swell height sits around 2ft to 3ft, coming from the east with a 6 to 7-second period. The wind, though—mostly light onshore or cross-onshore—still keeps it from being clean, and the break (Punta Prima) is exposed and inconsistent. It's just not enough to get excited about.
Honestly, there's no standout session here. The whole 16-day window offers nothing that I'd call a worthwhile surf. This is one of those blank runs where the area just isn't cooperating. Keep an eye on things because forecasts can change, but for now, the board stays in the shed.
Rusty.

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