The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's cookin' at Seaside Point. We've got a long window ahead, sixteen days, but the honest truth is we're gonna have to wait a while for something decent.

The overall pattern for the next week and a half is pretty grim. We've got a constant stream of cross-shore and cross-onshore winds, mainly from the north and northwest, that are just gonna keep the surface messy. The swell is hanging around in the 3ft to 5ft range, but it's short-period, wind-driven stuff, mostly 7 to 8 seconds, with wave energy readings that are weak to moderate (values like 184 to 601). The wave comment for the first ten days is consistently "poor surf conditions" or "marginal," and the scores are rock-bottom. It's a frustrating stretch for anyone who wants a clean ride.

The first real sign of hope doesn't show up until Sunday, August 16th. The afternoon sees a drop in wind and a small shift, with the swell dropping to 3ft from the WNW. The wind goes light onshore from the WSW, and the wave energy is moderate (272). That's still a marginal call, but it's a step in the right direction.

Now, the one standout. It's a long way off, but it's the only bright spot we've got. Monday morning, August 17th, is the day to circle on your calendar. The swell drops right off to just 1ft, but it's a long-period groundswell blasting in from the WNW with a period of 16 seconds. That's a very long period, and it usually means clean, well-shaped lines, though it might be a little too straight for a beach break. The game-changer here is the wind. We get glassy conditions, absolute dead calm. The wave energy is moderate (204), and the wave comment is "expect good surf conditions." With only 1ft of swell, don't expect a big day, but it will be the cleanest, most user-friendly waves of the entire forecast. The morning is the only time to be there, as the afternoon goes straight back to choppy cross-onshore junk.

After that, Tuesday morning, August 18th, gets a bit of cross-shore wind and a 2ft, 15-second period swell, but it's a no-go with the wind and rain.

So, to call it straight: the first ten days of this outlook are a write-off for quality surfing at Seaside Point. The water temperature is about average for this time of year. The sole highlight is that glassy Monday morning, August 17th. It's a long-range call, so don't bank on it, but for now, it's the only window we've got. If you're desperate, that's your shot.

Rusty.

Information about the Seaside Point Surf forecast

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