The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s get real about the coming stretch. It’s gonna be a tough one for a while, so don’t get your hopes up too early.
We’re looking at a long, dry spell to kick things off. From now through Tuesday, August 20th, the surf is pretty much a no-go. The wind is all over the place, mostly cross-off or cross-on, and the swell is tiny or just plain messy. Nothing’s lining up for a decent wave. You’re looking at a solid 7-day gap with no real recommendations.
The first faint glimmer of hope shows up on Wednesday morning, August 21st. Reve Havn is your only option here. It’s an advanced spot, and it’s fairly consistent, but we’re dealing with a 7ft NW swell. That’s getting into the big territory, so this is strictly for the experienced crew. The period is a short 7 seconds, so it’s not a proper groundswell, and the wind is a light cross-on from the N. The combined energy is a substantial 395 (moderate), but the conditions are still just marginal. The water is a bit colder than normal at 59°, which is about a degree off the average for this time of year.
The next day, Thursday, August 22nd, sees a drop-off in size but still a messy cross-on wind. Not really worth paddling out for.
Now, for the one true standout on the horizon. Keep your eyes on Monday, August 26th. The morning session at Reve Havn shows a 5ft NW swell with a much better 9-second period, pushing the combined energy to 393 (moderate). The wind is onshore from the NW though, so it’s not going to be glassy, but it’s the best looking day in the whole forecast. The afternoon is a bit of a question mark with the same swell size but a lighter WNW wind. It’s promising, but being over a week out, don’t book the day off work just yet.
The 27th of August sees us back to small, clean-ish conditions, but with no real power to speak of.
So, bottom line: sit tight for the first week. The only real window to keep an eye on is the 26th of August. It’s not perfect, but it’s all we’ve got.
Stay salty,
Rusty

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.

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.
