The Lowdown
G’day, Rusty here. Let’s break down what’s heading our way over the next couple of weeks. It starts off real nice, then fades out.
The clear standout is Saturday the 5th of September, first light. Silva Island-P Land is a reef break, advanced only, and it’s very consistent. Saturday morning is dead calm, glassy. Swell is 3ft from the SSW, with a long 16-second period. That’s proper groundswell, and the combined energy reading is 474—moderate to strong. The water’s at 86°, which is a touch warmer than usual for this time of year. The offshore direction is SE, and the optimum swell direction for this spot is SW, so the SSW is close enough. Crowds can show up sometimes, so get there early. This is the best of the whole run.
Sunday the 6th keeps it going. Sunday morning, glassy again, swell 3ft from the SW with a 15-second period. Combined energy is 315. Clean. Sunday afternoon stays glassy, swell drops a touch to 2ft.
Monday the 7th, morning glassy with 2ft from the SSW, 14-second period, combined energy 203. Nice little session. Afternoon gets a risk of thunderstorms and an onshore wind, so it’s a morning-only call.
Tuesday the 8th, morning glassy, but swell is down to 1ft from the SSW, though the period stretches to 18 seconds. Combined energy 218. Small but clean.
Wednesday the 9th, morning glassy, 2ft from the SSW, 16-second period, combined energy 205. Afternoon goes cross-shore, so stick to the morning.
Thursday the 10th, morning is questionable with an onshore breeze, but the afternoon turns glassy with 2ft from the SW, 16-second period, combined energy 287. That afternoon session looks good.
Friday the 11th, morning is dead calm again, 2ft from the SW, 16-second period, combined energy 208. Clean.
From Saturday the 12th onward, things drop off. Swell hangs around 1ft to 2ft, combined energy falls below 200 and then into two-digit figures from the 13th onwards. There are still glassy mornings—like Sunday the 13th, Monday the 14th, Tuesday the 15th, Wednesday the 16th—but the waves are small and ordinary. Not worth getting excited about.
By the 17th and 18th, the energy is weak, with combined readings in the 80s and 90s. The 20-second period on the 18th is interesting, but with only 0.7ft of swell and combined energy of 89, it’s a non-event. The last few days are much the same—small, clean mornings but nothing special.
So, to sum it up: your best bet is Saturday the 5th of September morning, and Sunday the 6th morning is a close second. After that, pick the glassy mornings but keep your expectations low. The reef at Silva Island-P Land needs more juice than what’s on offer after the first weekend.
