The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here again. Let’s talk about what’s coming for Silva Island-P Land.
It’s a slow start, but there’s a couple of mornings that’ll fire up the reef.
The best windows are Friday morning August 14 and Saturday morning August 15. On Friday we’ve got 2 ft from the SSW with a long 19-second period and glassy conditions, combined energy at 247 – that’s clean groundswell with decent push. Saturday bumps to 2 ft from the SW at 16 seconds, glassy again, energy at 275. These are your standout sessions.
Sunday morning August 9 kicks things off with 2 ft SSW, 14-second period, glassy, but very weak energy. Most mornings the following week are clean but tiny – around 1 ft to just under 2 ft – with good winds but not much wave.
Then on Monday August 17 morning we get a proper pulse: 4 ft from the SSW at 14 seconds, glassy, combined energy 686 (strong). That’s the biggest swell of the run, but it’s for experienced surfers only. The rest of the second week drops back to small stuff (1 ft to 2 ft) with occasional very long period but not enough height to do much.
The reef handles the long-period swell well, so the early mornings with glassy conditions are your go. Water temp is about average for this time of year.
For the best surf, hit Friday 14 or Saturday 15 August – morning missions only.
Rusty.

Information about the Silva Island-P Land Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Silva Island-P Land provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Silva Island-P Land can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu.

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).
