The Lowdown
Alright, here’s the deal. Starting off slow. Monday the 24th and Tuesday the 25th are flat and poor. The water is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year at 71°, but that’s about it. Wednesday the 26th is still flat. The first real movement comes Thursday the 27th afternoon – a small NW swell, 3 ft, period 8 seconds, with clean glassy conditions from a light offshore wind. The combined energy is 113 (moderate). It’s surfable, but nothing special.
Friday the 28th morning is the first real standout. Rodiles – Main Beach gets a clean 4 ft NW swell, period 11 seconds, with a cross-offshore wind. The combined energy is 409 (moderate). The water is still 71°, and the wind is light, so the waves will have shape. This is a good one for intermediate surfers. The optimum swell direction is NW, and that’s what we’ve got. Crowds are often here, so expect a few others. The afternoon turns cross-shore and messy, so get it in the morning.
Saturday the 29th morning is glassy with 3 ft NW swell, but the energy drops to 241 (moderate). It’s ordinary. Sunday the 30th morning is glassy, 3 ft, still ordinary.
Now, Monday the 31st of August morning is a serious highlight. Rodiles sees 5 ft from the NW, period 9 seconds, with glassy conditions. The combined energy is 440 (moderate). The water is still 71°, and the wind is dead calm. It’s clean, punchy, and a solid size. The afternoon gets cross-onshore, but the morning is a gem.
Tuesday the 1st of September morning is also very good – 4 ft NW, period 10 seconds, glassy, with 295 (moderate) energy. Not as big as Monday, but clean and consistent.
Then it goes quiet. Wednesday the 2nd to Saturday the 5th of September is mostly small, ordinary surf, with a few clean windows but nothing special.
Now, the big one. Monday the 8th of September. Rodiles – Main Beach gets a 4 ft NW swell, but the period is a massive 17 seconds. That’s groundswell, with very long period. The combined energy rockets to 1084 (strong). The morning is glassy. This is the standout of the entire 16 days. The water is still 71°, and the wind is light offshore. This is for experienced surfers – the size is manageable, but the energy is serious. The afternoon sees a slight cross-onshore chop, but the morning session on the 8th is the absolute best. There will be long gaps between sets, but the waves will be powerful and well-shaped. That’s the one.
Signing off, Rusty.
