Alright, this is Rusty. Let's chew the fat on what’s coming our way. It’s a pretty quiet start with nothing really stirring the pot. A few weak, short-period bumps roll through, but the wind just isn't playing ball.
The first proper window opens on Tuesday the 14th. We’ve got a glassy start to the day with a clean cross-off breeze, and the water is a touch warm for the season at about 65°. The swell is only a modest 3ft from the WNW, but the energy levels jump up to a solid moderate (229 combined energy). It won't be the biggest thing you've ever ridden, but the clean surface will make it a super fun session. That window is tight though, as the breeze switches around by the afternoon.
Now, the one you really need to keep an eye on is Friday the 17th morning. This is the clear highlight of the whole run. A 5ft swell from the NNW with that energy pushing to 234 (combined energy) and a gentle offshore wind from the NNE. It’s a short period at 8 seconds, so it won't have that long, drawn-out feel, but the conditions will be clean and there's enough grunt to have some fun. That’s the morning to make it happen.
After that, things look pretty average again as we head into the 18th. The weekend and the days after look small and choppy.
Keep your eyes on the 14th and definitely on the 17th for the best chance of a clean wave.
Catch you in the water.
Rusty.

Information about the St Tugen Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for St Tugen provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at St Tugen can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our St Tugen 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 (St Tugen) 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 St Tugen 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.
