The Lowdown
Right then, grab a coffee, 'cause we need to talk about the outlook for Reve Havn. It’s a bit of a rough stretch ahead for this advanced beach and reef setup. To be straight up with you, the forecast is pretty tough for the next two weeks. We’re looking at a lot of onshore and cross-shore wind, which is going to keep things messy for the vast majority of the period.
We’ve got a big pulse of energy arriving right from the start. Saturday morning the 5th, a strong W swell of 12 ft smashes in, but that comes with a strong WNW breeze straight on it. The combined energy is huge at 2170, but the quality is just not there for a paddle. Honestly, with conditions like that, this is looking more like a kiteboarding zone than a surfing one. That same size holds through Saturday afternoon, wind shifts NW, still howling, still poor. That big energy sticks around into Tuesday the 8th where we see a 8 ft SW swell with strong cross-shore winds and lumpy chop (energy reading of 1334). It’s just not clean enough for a good session.
The best chance for a surf, if you're desperate, is probably the morning of Thursday the 17th. There’s a 8 ft WNW swell (energy 998) and the wind is cross-shore, but the call is only marginal. You’d be dealing with a moderate cross-chop. The water is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year at 60°.
Then, look at Saturday the 19th. It’s nearly two weeks out, so don’t bank on it, but the early morning shows a smaller 3 ft WNW groundswell with a period of 11 seconds and complete glass. A tiny, clean window. The energy is low at 216, but it would be the cleanest conditions we see in the whole outlook. That’s the one to keep an eye on, but it's a long way off.
There’s really one standout here if the long-range forecast holds. For a clean wave, your best bet is the early morning of Saturday, 19 September. The swell is only 3 ft from the WNW, but with glassy conditions, it will be the absolute pick of a pretty bad bunch. Crowds are possible here, so you might have company for those rare clean waves.
Other than that, it’s a long, frustrating wait. The setups are too often blown out or messy. As I always say, it tends not to stay this poor forever.

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