The Lowdown
Alright, let’s put it in feet and miles. The outlook for Reve Havn over the next 16 days is a real test of patience. We’re looking at a long, dry spell before anything worthwhile shows up.
The first part of the forecast is a big fat zero. From Monday, August 3rd, all the way through Saturday, August 15th, every single report says “poor surf conditions.” The swell is tiny, mostly under 2 feet, with energy readings well under 50 (48, 38, 13 at the worst). The wind is almost always cross-onshore or choppy. There’s a little bump on Thursday, August 6th – swell around 5 ft, energy up to 177 – but it’s a short-period, messy swell with onshore winds. That’s a no-go for clean surfing. Then another bump on Sunday, August 9th, with 4 ft swell and 121 energy, but again, it’s cross-onshore and lumpy. The water temperature is about average for the season.
Finally, on Sunday, August 16th, things change. The morning goes glassy, with 3 ft of SW swell and 86 energy. It’s small, clean, and surfable – the first real opportunity. The afternoon picks up a bit: 4 ft from the WSW, clean conditions with a cross-off wind, energy up to 121. This is your best bet. The swell period is short, around 6 seconds, so it’s not the best shape, but it’s ridable. Crowds are sometimes a thing here, but on a day like this, you might have it fairly quiet.
Monday, August 17th, has a little more size (4 ft to 5 ft), but the wind turns cross-shore and then onshore, and conditions go back to ordinary. The last day, Tuesday, August 18th, has a big energy spike – 509 from a 5 ft W swell, 8-second period – but that’s with a moderate cross-onshore wind and chop. That’s a powerful, messy setup, more suited for kiting than clean surfing.
The standout is Sunday, August 16th. That’s the day to target. The glassy morning gives you a shot at small, clean waves, and the afternoon offers a bit more size but still clean. That’s your window.

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.
