The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here again. Let’s break it down in feet and miles.
We’re looking at Saaga, a reef break that’s best for the advanced crew. Water temp is 81°, dead average for this time of year.
The whole thing starts on Friday, September 4th, and it’s a rough go. A solid 6ft south swell, 16-second period, with a ton of energy (2461), but the wind is howling ESE at 22 mph, slapping it cross-on. It’s a lumpy mess. That same ugly pattern hangs on through Saturday and Sunday. The swell drops, but the wind stays nasty.
Monday the 7th to Thursday the 11th is a big quiet stretch. Swell drops to around 3ft, and the energy bottoms out. The wind is still a problem. It’s a real dry spell of several days with nothing on offer.
The light finally appears late on Wednesday, September 16th. The wind swings ENE at just 9 mph, going cross-offshore. That’s a clean canvas. The swell is 4ft from the SW, a 15-second period, with moderate energy (1540). The conditions are set up perfectly for experienced surfers. That afternoon is the real standout of the whole forecast.
The 17th keeps some of that clean feel, but the swell is smaller and the wind goes cross, so it’s not as good. Then we get a mixed bag until the 19th. On Saturday the 19th, we see a new pulse: a 6ft south swell, 16 seconds, with strong energy (2431). The wind is cross-offshore again, brushing it clean. It’s a solid option a week and a half out, so worth a note, but don’t book the trip yet.
The best bet is that clean, cross-offshore window on Wednesday afternoon, the 16th. Saaga is a consistent spot, so it’ll be worth the wait.
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.
