The Lowdown

Hey crew, Rusty here with the lowdown on the waves for Saaga. We've got a bit of a dry spell at the start, but a proper session is on the horizon if you're patient.

The first week or so is pretty grim. The trade winds are blowing from the ESE or SE, mostly cross or cross-onshore, making a mess of the water. The combined swell energy is moderate, but the descriptions like “fresh cross-shore with lumpy cross-chop” tell you everything you need to know. The water temp is 81°F, which is about normal for this time of year.

We finally get a clean-up on Monday the 4th of August in the afternoon. The wind swings to the ENE, going cross-offshore, with a clean 4ft swell from the SSE at 11 seconds. The energy is still moderate at 571, but it's a lot more inviting.

Things start to ramp up on Wednesday the 5th of August afternoon. We see building swell: 5ft from the SW with a long 18-second period. The wind is light NE at 12 mph, cross-off and clean, and the energy jumps to 2357.

But the real highlight, the one you need to circle on your calendar, is Thursday the 6th of August. This is the day. In the morning, we get a light offshore breeze from the NNE at just 3 mph, with a solid 6ft SW groundswell. The period is a very long 18 seconds, packing a punch with 2414 combined energy. The conditions are described as "excellent for experienced surfers." That 6ft is into expert territory, and with that long period, it’s going to be all about that reef at Saaga. It could be a bit much for the average surfer.

If you can hold out for the afternoon of the 6th, that’s your jackpot. The wind goes totally glassy, coming from the West at 3 mph. The swell settles a bit to a still chunky 5ft from the SW at 17 seconds, with 2044 combined energy. Glassy conditions with a powerful, long-period groundswell at a reef break… that’s about as perfect as a forecast gets.

After that highlight, the wind gets fluky again on Friday the 7th, turning more cross-onshore, and the quality drops off heading into the second weekend with messy and onshore winds returning.

So, the long and short of it: the first week is a bust. The clear standout is Saaga on Thursday the 6th of August. The morning offers a punchy 6ft SW swell with a light offshore breeze and massive energy. The afternoon is the absolute winner with glassy conditions and a 5ft SW swell. This is a day for the experienced crew only, but for them, it has the potential to be epic.

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.
