The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here with the lowdown on the local spot. It's gonna be a slow burn for the next few days, with hardly anything worth paddling out for. The first real window of opportunity pops up on Thursday morning, August 13th.
That's your standout session. Thursday morning we've got a clean 4ft swell from the west, with a 10-second period. The wind is light from the north, blowin' cross-offshore, keepin' the surface glassy and the waves clean. The energy is pumping at 255. The water temp is around 65°, which is pretty standard for the season. That's the session to circle on the calendar.
After that, things drop off again. Monday the 17th morning has a similar 4ft swell, but the wind is a bit stiffer, so it won't be as perfect.
The back half of the forecast, from the 19th onward, is lookin' real small and choppy with onshore wind. Not much to say there. So, aim for that Thursday morning. That's the call.

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.
