The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s get real about what’s coming down the line for Saaga.

Right off the bat, I’ve gotta be straight with you – the outlook for the next 16 days is a tough pill to swallow. The swell is there, no doubt, but the wind is just ruining it. We’re looking at a solid run of cross-shore and cross-onshore winds that are going to leave the surface lumpy and chopped up for the vast majority of the period. It’s going to be a long wait for a clean window.

For a reef break that needs clean conditions to shine, this is painful. The first real chance we have to even think about a decent session doesn’t roll around until the end of the first week. The swell size is generally manageable, but the wind is just relentless.

We start with a decent SW groundswell coming in around 3.6ft with a long 16-second period, but that 30 km/h cross-shore wind from the east on Monday morning (7th September) is going to turn it into a washing machine. This theme continues all the way through the first week and into the second. The winds stays fresh, mostly from the east or southeast, keeping the surface messy. The swell builds through the second week, hitting 8.2ft on Monday the 14th, but it’s coupled with a strong cross-onshore wind. That’s expert-only territory and even then, it’s going to be a battle.

The only glimmer of light comes right at the end of the run. On Friday the 18th of September, we finally get a break in the wind. Wednesday the 16th afternoon shows a marginal sign, but it’s Thursday the 17th afternoon (17th September) where we see a shift. The wind swings to the ENE (cross-offshore) at 30 km/h, with a 3.6ft SW swell. The description says "clean". That’s what we’ve been waiting for. But the real standout is Friday morning, 18th September: the wind looks to be NNE (cross-offshore) at 25 km/h, with a 3.3ft SW swell. The water temp is about 81°F, which is totally normal for this time of year.

Then, the kicker: Friday afternoon, 18th September. The wind goes light offshore from the NNE at 20 km/h, with a 3.0ft SW groundswell. This is the only window where the stars align. The period is 14 seconds, so it’s a proper groundswell. For a reef like Saaga, that’s a dream setup. It’s going to be clean, lined up, and with small crowds possible. The water is warm, the air is clear, and the threat of thunderstorms is there but that shouldn’t ruin the wave.

This is your one shot. The rest of the period is a write-off due to wind. The wait is long, but that Friday afternoon is the real deal. Don’t sleep on it.

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.
