The Lowdown
Alright, crew, Rusty here with the lowdown on Silva Island-P Land. The water’s running real warm at 87°, a good bit warmer than average for this time of year.
It’s a slow start. From Tuesday the 25th right through the end of August, we’re looking at tiny ankle-to-knee-high waves. The swell is around 1ft with a long 16-second period out of the southwest. The combined wave energy is weak, only 106 on Tuesday morning. There are some perfectly glassy windows though, which is nice. Tuesday morning is dead flat calm, and Wednesday the 26th morning is glassy too. It’s surfable, but nothing to get excited about.
Thursday the 27th morning drops even smaller, to 0.7ft. Things finally turn around on Saturday the 29th morning. The swell picks up to 2ft from the SW with a 16-second period, and the combined energy jumps to 300. That’s a moderate amount of power, and it’s glassy. That’s the first session that’s actually worth the drive. Sunday the 30th morning is a carbon copy: 2ft, 14 seconds, glassy. Two clean days in a row.
But the real jewel is Friday the 4th of September. Swell stays at 2ft, but the energy cranks to 361. You’ve got a light, clean offshore breeze from the ESE, and a very long 18-second period from the southwest. That’s pure groundswell hitting right where this reef likes it. The afternoon stays clean with cross-offshore wind. That Friday is the one to circle.
Saturday the 5th of September is a close second. Swell pushes up to 3ft from the SW, 16 seconds, and the combined energy hits 391. It’s glassy in the morning and clean in the afternoon. That’s the biggest swell of the whole run, but it’s still manageable for the advanced crew that surf here.
After that, the energy coasts back down through the second week, with 2ft and 2ft swells and a mix of glassy and side-shore mornings. There’s a late pulse on Wednesday the 9th afternoon with 2ft, 17-second swell and clean cross-offshore wind, but it doesn’t beat that epic Friday-Saturday window.
This is a reliable, exposed reef break for advanced surfers. Crowds can pop up now and then, so keep your wits about you.
Rusty, out.

Information about the Silva Island-P Land Surf forecast
