The Lowdown

Alright, Rusty here. Let's break down what's headed our way for the next couple of weeks.

First up, we're looking at Saaga, a fairly exposed reef setup that needs a SE swell direction to really get going. The water temp is sitting at 81°, which is about average for this time of year, nothing weird going on there.

Now, right off the bat, the first few days are pretty grim. Tuesday afternoon is no good – we've got a 5-foot SW swell (15-second period) coming in, but it's cross-shore with a fresh ESE breeze, making things lumpy and messy. The combined energy is moderate at 1289, but the conditions just aren't playing ball. This keeps up through Wednesday, Thursday, and into the weekend. The wind stays cross or cross-on from the east or southeast, and even though the swell hangs around 3 to 5 feet, it's all cross-chop or lumpy. The whole first week is basically a write-off for any kind of clean surf.

There is a shift early in the second week. Monday the 14th and Tuesday the 15th actually see a bump in size – we get 7-foot and 6-foot waves from the SSW and SW, but the wind is still fresh cross-onshore and lumpy, so it's just big and messy. The 17th and 18th finally show some hope. On Thursday the 18th afternoon, we finally get a break in the weather. The wind swings to a moderate offshore from the NNW at 12 mph, and we get a 3-foot SW swell with a 14-second period. The combined energy is moderate at 790, but that offshore wind is going to clean it right up. That's our first real standout – it's small but it'll be glassy. Then on Friday the 18th morning, it's still offshore from the north at 15 mph with the same 3-foot SW swell, and even though there's a risk of thunderstorms, the wind is clean. That afternoon is looking like the peak of the window: offshore, clean, and super fun on a small day.

After that, we jump to the 20th and 21st, and it's back to cross-on slop. The real wildcard is the 22nd of September. We get a 10-foot swell from the SSW with a short 8-second period – that's a lot of water moving, but it's lumpy and cross-onshore. The combined energy is strong at 1874, but it's going to be a washed-out mess for a paddle surfer. For a kite surfer though? That setup with strong cross-on winds and that much swell... that would be more interesting.

So, if you're a paddler, the best bet is to wait for that offshore window on Thursday 18th and Friday 19th of September. It's not huge, but it'll be clean and fun. Saturday the 12th and Sunday the 13th are a wash, and the rest is just waiting.

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.
