Quatro-Once (411) Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Right then, let's have a look at what Quatro-Once (411) has got cookin' for us.

Alright, so we've got a solid run of surf here at this point break. The water's sitting at a warm 85°F with the temperature about 3°F warmer than usual for this time of year – you'll be happy in a spring suit or just boardshorts. We're looking at a consistent, exposed point break that loves a SSW swell, and that's exactly what we're getting. For the first week, it's a story of clean mornings and tricky onshore afternoons, so plan your sessions early.

Thursday the 13th is a nice little intro with clean 2ft SW groundswell on the light offshore NE breeze. The wave energy is moderate (304), but it's clean and rideable. Friday the 14th morning is a real step up – 4ft of SW groundswell with a very long 18-second period and a light offshore N breeze. The energy jumps up to a strong 852. This is a standout morning. Saturday the 15th stays similar in size, around 4ft, but the onshore SW wind and risk of storms will chop things up, so not the day for it. Skip the afternoons this whole stretch, pretty much.

Now, Sunday the 16th is your absolute highlight for the first week. Glassy conditions, 4ft of SW groundswell with a long 15-second period, and a solid moderate energy reading of 711. It'll be clean as a whistle, with good shape on the point. Monday the 17th morning is also glassy with 4ft and 14-second period (669 energy) - another cracker session. Tuesday the 18th morning has a nice cross-off breeze keeping things clean on the 4ft swell. After that, the afternoons get a bit messy.

Into the second week, the consistency holds but the sizes drop off. Wednesday the 19th morning is clean with 3ft and glassy conditions – another winner. Thursday the 20th drops to 2ft but stays clean and glassy both morning and afternoon, which is nice for a small-wave longboard session. The real promise, though, is towards the end. Friday the 21st morning brings a 4ft SSW swell with a clean offshore NE breeze, a good little spike. Then on Friday the 28th, we get a late-period standout: 3ft of SW groundswell with a 17-second period, clean offshore wind, and a strong wave energy of 741. That is a session for the diary, but remember, it's a long-range call, so keep an eye on it. The point handles those longer periods well, so you'll get some nice walls.

Crowds are possible here, so get in early for those clean morning windows. The spot is consistent, so even the smaller days around 2ft to 2ft in the final week are worth a paddle if you're jonesing.

Overall, the best on offer is Sunday the 16th and Monday the 17th for the first week, and that Friday the 28th for a promising, but less certain, late run.

Rusty.
