Alright, let’s get into it. The next couple of weeks are gonna be a bit of a mixed bag at Saaga, but there’s a definite standout waiting for us if you’re patient.

First up, it’s a bit rough right now. From Monday, July 6th, right through until the end of the following week, conditions are looking pretty poor. A lot of cross-onshore wind, choppy and lumpy conditions, and not much to get excited about. The swell’s around, but it’s mostly in the 3 ft to 6 ft range and the wind just spoils it. Even when Wednesday the 8th has a little pulse of long-period 16-second swell from the SW at 2 ft, it’s still messy with cross-onshore breezes. Not worth paddling out for.

Then Thursday, July 9th, morning throws a bit of a curveball. The wind swings offshore from the north, the swell jumps to 7 ft from the SW with a very long period of 17 seconds, and the combined energy hits 2688 (kind of a moderate-to-strong zone). This is excellent surf for experienced surfers – that’s a big, clean, powerful groundswell heading straight into a reef break. The only catch? This is a consistent, advanced reef setup, so if you’re not comfortable with heavy, lined-up waves on a shallow reef, sit this one out. That morning window is the absolute cream of the forecast, but the afternoon turns onshore and gets messy.

From Friday the 10th onwards, we slide back into marginal surf. The swell stays between 5 ft and 7 ft, but the wind swings onshore from the south and southeast, killing the shape. There’s a bit of life on Sunday the 12th afternoon with a 6 ft SW groundswell and gentle cross-onshore wind, but it’s still choppy. Nothing to get too excited about.

Now, here’s the real payoff. If you can wait, Sunday, July 20th, Monday morning and afternoon are the best on offer. Monday morning rolls in with 7 ft from the ESE at 10 seconds, clean conditions under a gentle cross-offshore breeze, and the energy reading sits at 1285 – solid. Then Monday afternoon gets even better: the wind drops to almost nothing – glassy conditions – and the swell hangs in at 6 ft. That’s about as clean as it gets. The wave state goes from clean to glassy. That afternoon is surf heaven. Keep in mind this is over two weeks away, so it’s a promising long-range call, but definitely one to keep an eye on. The swell direction (ESE) also matches the optimum SE direction for Saaga, so it’ll be well-shaped.

For the rest of the second week, Tuesday the 21st sees onshore winds again, so that Monday is the real target.

Water temp? No specific number in the data, but the anomaly label is missing, so I’d say it’s about average for the time of year at this break.

Saaga is a reef break, consistent and for advanced surfers. When it’s on, it’s on – but there’s a lot of waiting for those clean windows with the right wind.

Stay patient, keep an eye on that Monday the 20th, and if you’re keen on Thursday the 9th morning, it’s a serious wave for the experienced crew.

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.
