The Lowdown
Alright crew, Rusty here. Let’s break this down.
First thing’s first – the opening days are a total bust. On the 21st, we’ve got a feeble 3ft wave from the WNW, but the period is only 4 seconds – that’s pure windswell junk. The onshore wind is on it, and the combined wave energy is a low 40. Nothing to see here. Water temp's around 58°, which is normal for this time of year.
We don’t get a real chance until the afternoon of Friday the 24th. The swell is still small at about 4ft from the WNW, but the period stretches to 8 seconds and we get glassy, clean conditions. The combined energy bumps up to a moderate 188. It’s our best bet – a 1 out of 10 on the scale, but honestly, that’s the high point.
Saturday the 25th afternoon shows a pulse to about 5ft from the west with a 9-second period (combined energy 432 - moderate), but it’s under light rain with an onshore breeze. It’s a "marginal" call at best.
After that, it’s a long, painful dry spell. From Sunday the 26th all the way to August 5th, the swell barely kicks above 3ft, the period drops into short, choppy territory, and the wind is almost always a nasty cross-onshore from the NNW or NW. The combined energy numbers fall off a cliff, and every wave comment is "poor surf conditions". This place is more interesting for kiteboarding than paddling on most of these days.
So here’s the truth: there’s no real standout. The only half-decent window is that glassy Friday afternoon, and even that is just small fun. For an advanced reef-and-beach setup like this, we need a proper westerly groundswell with clean offshore winds. This 16-day window has none of that. It’s a tough run, but it happens. The forecasts can flip, but right now, I’d hang the board up for a bit.
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.
