The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's cookin' at Reve Havn.
Right off the bat, I gotta be straight with you—this is a tough stretch for the paddle crew. We're looking at a long, quiet run with hardly any surf worth getting excited about. The first recommendation doesn't come until August 20th, so there's a solid 11-day gap of nothing but poor conditions and flat spells. For an advanced spot like this, that's a proper dry spell.
From August 9th through the 19th, it's a write-off. We've got onshore winds, messy chop, and on a couple of days, the swell energy is barely registering, with combined energy values as low as 8. It's just not happening. Even the few cleaner days around the 12th and 13th have tiny waves—0.7ft to 1ft—so you'd be floating more than surfing.
The first glimmer comes on Thursday, August 20th in the morning. The wind goes light out of the S, and the water gets glassy. The swell bumps up to 3ft from the SSW with a short 5-second period, and the combined energy is a modest 108. Conditions are clean, and the cross-offshore wind is in our favour. The catch? It's small and weak, but for a place that's been dead for days, it's the best we've got. The water temperature is sitting about average for this time of year.
After that, the outlook fades again. The end of August and into the 24th sees more onshore wind and tiny waves. On the 24th morning, there's a clean 3ft from the SW with a cross-offshore breeze, but again, it's small and the period is a short 7 seconds. Not the kind of day that gets the heart racing.
Honestly, if you're chasing anything decent here, keep your expectations low. The setup is a beach and reef, and with the wind patterns we're seeing, it might actually be more interesting for the kite crew than us paddle surfers. For now, keep the board in the car and wait for the forecasts to change.
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. 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.
