The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s talk about this 16-day stretch for Rodiles - Main Beach. It’s a bit of a mixed bag, but there are a couple of windows you’ll want to circle on the calendar. The water temp is sitting about 70°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, so you might not need the thickest rubber.
The first few days are a write-off. Thursday and Friday (3rd & 4th September) are tiny, with poor surf conditions and cross-onshore winds. The swell is a weak 2ft, and the combined energy is a measly 43 to 78 (weak). Don’t even bother.
Saturday the 5th sees a bit more size, with swell hitting 4ft to 5ft from the NNW, but it’s coming in with a strong cross-onshore wind from the east. The wave energy jumps into the moderate range (609 to 762), but the chop will be ugly. It’s a kite day, not a paddle day.
Now, Sunday the 6th is where it gets interesting. We’ve got a clean morning with light WNW cross-offshore winds, and the swell is 3ft from the NNW with a period of 11 seconds. The combined energy is 274 (moderate), and the wave comment says to expect good surf conditions. This is your best early bet – clean, fun waves, and the cross-off wind will keep the faces tidy. The afternoon picks up to 5ft and 530 energy, still clean, but a bit more size.
Monday the 7th is surfable but ordinary. You’ll find 3ft to 4ft waves with a clean feel in the morning, but the afternoon gets a cross-onshore breeze that messes it up. Nothing special.
The middle of the week (8th to 10th September) is a return to poor conditions. Small swell, cross-shore or onshore winds, and the energy is low (136 to 190). The morning of the 10th has a clean 3ft wave, but it’s just ordinary.
We hit a dry spell from the 11th to the 14th. The swell drops to 1ft to 5ft, but the wind is mostly onshore or cross-on, and the wave quality is poor. The 11th afternoon has a glassy 4ft wave, but it’s from the ENE with a short 5-second period – just wind slop. The 12th morning has a clean 4ft, but again, short period gunk.
Now, the standout. Look at Tuesday the 15th afternoon. We’ve got a massive 4ft swell from the NW with a very long period of 18 seconds. The combined energy is a whopping 808 (strong). The catch? The wind is a cross-onshore from the ENE, making it choppy. For a long period swell like this, Rodiles can still handle it, but be prepared for some bump on the face. This is a big energy event, and the clean morning of the 15th (3ft, glassy) is a good warm-up.
Wednesday the 16th morning is also a standout. Swell is 5ft from the NW, period 14 seconds, and the combined energy is 950 (strong). The wind is a light cross-onshore, but the wave comment still calls it marginal. This is expert territory at 5ft, especially with long period, but the power is real.
The final days (17th-18th September) fade back to small, weak, and mostly ordinary. The 18th afternoon has a clean 5ft wave from the NE with a short period, but it’s just a fun little clean-up session to finish the run.
The pick: Sunday the 6th morning is your best early session – clean, good size, and proper swell. For the big energy, aim for the 15th afternoon or 16th morning, but know it’s for experienced surfers with the wind being a bit messy.
Rusty.
