The Lowdown

Alright, Rusty here, let’s break it down.

It’s a grim stretch ahead. The first surfable day isn’t until Wednesday, July 23rd, and it’s barely worth mentioning. The whole 16-day run has a lot of poor surf, with the wind being the main problem.

The spot is Saaga, a reef break for advanced surfers. Water temp is 82°F, which is about average for this time of year. The first real look is Wednesday morning, July 23rd. You’ve got 5ft of swell from the S, with a long 18-second period, but the wind is cross-onshore from the SE at 12 mph, leaving it choppy. The combined energy is moderate (1756). Thursday afternoon, July 23rd, is a bit better, still 5ft from the S, but the wind goes cross-shore, which is a slight improvement. Still not clean.

The standout window is Wednesday afternoon, July 29th. The wind finally goes cross-offshore from the ENE at 16 mph, and the report says “clean.” Swell is 5ft from the SW, with a 15-second period, and the combined energy is moderate (967). This is the best day, but it’s a long way out, so don’t bet the farm on it. For a reef break, a long-period groundswell from the SW is a good fit, but the wind pattern this whole window is unreliable.

Before that, Monday morning, July 27th, has a brief moment of light offshore wind from the S at 6 mph, but the swell is tiny at 3ft from the S. It’s marginal.

After the 29th, the wind turns back to junk. Thursday the 30th and Friday the 31st have fresh cross-shore winds and lumpy conditions, with swell around 4ft to 5ft from the S and SW. The energy is moderate to strong (1215 to 1585), but the wind is a mess.

For the first week, the constant cross-onshore and cross-shore winds mean this setup is better for kite surfing than paddle surfing. The reef needs clean conditions, and it’s not getting them.

The second week is a total dud. From August 1st onward, the swell fades and the wind stays fresh and lumpy. Nothing to see here.

So, if you’re an advanced surfer, keep an eye on that Wednesday, July 29th window. It’s the only real chance. Otherwise, it’s a long wait for very little.

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.
