Table - best surf conditions forecast for Saaga over the next 16 days.
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s cookin’ for Saaga over the next couple of weeks. I’ll be straight with you – this is a tough stretch.
The outlook for Saaga is pretty grim for most of the next 16 days. There’s a massive gap of poor conditions right through to the middle of the third week. The first week and a half is dominated by onshore and cross-onshore winds that are gonna leave the waves choppy and messy. We’re talking strong breeze conditions with the wind cranking from the SSE and ESE, and the combined energy is high, like 1,161 to over 2,000 in places, but it’s all wasted with that wind. The swell height fluctuates between 3 ft and a solid 10 ft, but with that wind and short periods (7 to 8 seconds on some days), it’s just a washing machine. On Wednesday the 15th and Friday the 17th, you’re looking at 8 ft to 10 ft of short-period, cross-onshore slop – that’s expert-only territory if anyone’s stupid enough to paddle out, but honestly, it’s more interesting for kiteboarding.
Now, there is a light at the end of the tunnel. After about a 9-day run of garbage, things start to shift around Monday the 21st of July. Tuesday the 21st, late in the afternoon, we finally see the wind swing to the north – a true offshore wind, gentle at 9 mph. The swell drops to 3 ft from the SW with a long period of 14 seconds. Clean, gentle, offshore conditions. That’s the standout. Saaga is a reef break that needs SE swell to really shine, but with that glassy offshore and long-period groundswell, it’ll be clean and lined up, even if it’s a little on the small side. Combined energy is moderate at 745. Wednesday the 22nd looks like a washout again as the wind turns onshore, so don’t sleep on that Tuesday afternoon window. The water temp is about average for this time of year, nothing weird.
So, to keep it simple: surf is basically a no-go until Tuesday the 21st. That Tuesday afternoon is your best and only real shot at something worth paddling for. After that, it falls apart again by Wednesday.

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.
