Alright, Rusty here. Let's talk about what's on offer at Saaga.
The first few days, from Saturday (July 4th) through to the 8th, are a total bust. Onshore and cross-onshore winds blowing at 15 to 19 mph mean the waves are going to be a choppy, messy disaster. There's swell – ranging from about 5 ft to 8 ft – but with the wind all wrong, it's not worth paddling out on. The water's about 83°, which is normal for this time of year.
Now, things flip on Thursday the 9th. The wind swings to the N, blowing offshore at 16 mph. A solid 7 ft SW groundswell with a very long 17-second period shows up, packing a massive amount of energy (2975). This is expert territory – the swell's over 8 ft, the period is long, and Saaga is a reef break. It'll be clean, powerful, and hollow. Expect some crowds, but the quality will be unreal for those who can handle it.
Friday the 10th morning keeps the good vibes going with a lighter W breeze and a 7 ft SW swell at a long 15-second period. The energy is still high (2130). This is for the experienced crew only – the conditions are clean, but the size and power are serious.
After that, it's back to the washing machine. From Saturday the 11th, it's all onshore and cross-onshore winds again, with choppy surf. There's some size in the second week, like on the 16th with 7 ft to 7 ft S swell, but the wind stays messy from the SE, so the quality stays poor. The 17th and 18th continue the trend with lumpy, cross-shore chop. The energy sits in the moderate range (around 818-1170), but the waves just aren't clean.
So, keep your eyes on Thursday the 9th and Friday the 10th. That's the only true window for something special. The rest of the forecast is mostly a wash.
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.
