The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s coming up for Saaga over the next couple of weeks.

Right off the bat, it’s a grim picture for the first ten days or so. We’ve got a solid amount of swell in the water – the combined wave energy is hitting some hefty numbers like 1901 and even 4420 – but that wind is just a nightmare. It’s a constant, strong cross-shore or cross-onshore breeze from the ESE, gusting up to 28 mph, and it’s absolutely shredding the surface. The surf is messy, lumpy, and cross-chopped. It’s pretty much unsurfable for a paddle board. Honestly, for the first week, this setup looks more interesting for kite surfing than for paddle surfing. That big 9.8 ft swell on Tuesday the 11th of August? Totally blown out by that 28 mph wind.

Into the second week, the wind does ease back a bit to a moderate breeze, which is an improvement, but the quality is still poor to marginal at best. Monday the 18th of August sees a shift in swell direction to a long-period groundswell from the SW – 17 seconds! That brings a solid 1351 wave energy, but unfortunately, that cross-onshore wind is still there, leaving it choppy. The 3.0 ft to 4.3 ft swell over the next few days is too small and still plagued by cross-shore winds.

There’s a flicker of something on Thursday the 21st of August, with another long-period S swell (15-17 seconds) pushing 6.5 ft. The energy hits 2192. But again, the cross-shore and cross-onshore winds keep it lumpy. It’ll be a frustrating, tricky session even for the advanced crew Saaga is meant for. The last day, Monday the 24th of August, has a clean-ish 3.0 ft swell from the SSE with a 14-second period, and lighter winds, but at that size, it’s barely breaking.

The bottom line: There are no true standout days in this entire 16-day forecast. The wind is just too persistent and too strong from a bad direction. You’re looking at over a week of poor conditions before things get slightly less terrible, but never good. If you have to get wet, the 21st of August might offer the most size, but expect a battle with the wind. For clean surf, this run is a total write-off.

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.
