Updates in  hr  min  s Forecast update imminent

G’day, Rusty here. Let’s talk about what’s coming up at Saaga. This is a reef break for advanced surfers only, and it’s consistent, so when it’s on, it’s on. But we’ve got a long wait ahead.

The next two and a half weeks are pretty grim. From the start of the forecast right through to the middle of the month, we’re looking at a lot of cross-onshore winds and messy conditions. The first real window I can get excited about doesn’t arrive until Thursday, the 9th of July. That morning, the wind swings around to a light cross-off from the northeast at just 9 mph, with the swell coming from the southwest at 4 ft and a very long 17-second period. The combined energy is massive at 2018 (moderate to strong). That afternoon it gets even better—wind drops to nearly glassy from the northwest at 3 mph, swell jumps to 7 ft from the southwest with a 16-second period, and the energy hits 2733 (strong). This is excellent, clean surf, but at 7 ft it’s for experienced surfers only. It’s a standout, no doubt. The water temperature is sitting at 82°, which is about average for this time of year with a 0.5° anomaly—nothing unusual there.

After that, the wind turns onshore again from Friday the 10th through to Saturday the 18th. A lot of those days have onshore or cross-onshore winds, with solid swell but poor conditions. For example, Friday the 10th has 6-7 ft southwest swell, but onshore winds from the SSE and S—marginal at best. The second half of the run, around Sunday the 19th, we see a brief return of clean conditions with cross-off winds from the ENE and NE, and a 4-4 ft southwest swell with a 16-second period. The energy is still strong (1591-1631), but the scores are only marginal due to tide or other issues. It’s worth a look but not a standout.

So, to keep it simple: this is a long stretch with only one true standout—Thursday the 9th of July. For the advanced crew, that’s your day. Everything else is mostly blown out or marginal. Don’t hold your breath for the rest.

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.
