Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's on the cards for Saaga over the next couple of weeks.

Straight up, for a spot that's a consistent advanced reef break that loves a SE swell, we're looking at a long, dry spell before anything gets good. The whole first week is a write-off thanks to onshore and cross-onshore winds that are just going to chop everything to pieces. There's a big gap of nothing worthwhile from now until Thursday the 9th of July.

Now, mark your calendars for Thursday the 9th of July. That's the standout. We've got a solid SW groundswell coming in with a long 17-second period – that means proper energy and shape, but at a reef break like this it'll be a dream. The morning shows a 5ft swell with a gentle offshore breeze from the north. It’s gonna be clean, it’s gonna be powerful, and the combined energy is strong at 2137. This is for the experienced crew though, as it gets bigger in the afternoon, pushing 7ft with clean conditions. The water is about normal for this time of year.

Friday the 10th of July sees the swell holding at 7ft, but the wind swings onshore from the SSE, making it messy and marginal. Not the same story as Thursday.

After that, it's back to the same old story for ages. From the 11th right through to the 20th of July, it's a relentless run of poor conditions. Cross-onshore winds, strong breezes, and even near gale-force winds later on, with waves that are either blown out, lumpy, or just messy. There is a little spike in energy on the 20th of July with another long-period SW swell, but the wind is still cross-onshore and chopping it up, so it’s not one to get excited about.

So, the long and short of it: one absolute gem of a day on Thursday the 9th of July for the advanced surfers, then a whole lot of nothing. A blank run like this is fairly normal for the area when the winds don't play ball.

Rusty.

Information about the Saaga Surf forecast

The above surf forecast table for Saaga provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Saaga can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Saaga 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 (Saaga) 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 Saaga 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.
