Siriu Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright folks, Rusty here with a look at the next couple of weeks for this one spot.

We are starting off a bit slow, but this forecast has some real gems hidden in it, especially for anyone willing to wait for the top-shelf conditions later on. The early days look pretty average, with a lot of onshore or cross-shore wind messing things up, but the pattern really cleans up from Sunday afternoon and into the next week.

First up, Siriu. The water’s sitting at 67°, which is about average for this time of year, nothing to write home about.

Friday the 7th is a write-off. You’ve got a weak cross-shore chop with poor surf. Just forget it.

Saturday the 8th is building, but it’s still rainy with a cross-shore breeze. We’re seeing some new groundswell push in from the SSE with a long 14-second period. This swell has some serious energy behind it (1209 on Saturday morning, jumping to 1405 in the arvo), but with that wind, it’s not going to be clean. A bit of a frustrating day, waves are there but blown out.

Now, Sunday the 9th is where things start to change. The wind swings to the SSW and goes clean offshore for Siriu. The morning is still a bit messy with 6ft SSE swell, but the afternoon is the first real standout. Clean, cross-offshore wind, gentle breeze, and the swell jumps to a solid 8ft from the south with an 11-second period. The energy is pumping at (1978). This is excellent for experienced surfers – it’s big enough to be a handful for beginners. This is a proper session.

Monday the 10th keeps the good times rolling. More clean, cross-offshore conditions with a very long 12-second, 7ft S swell, pushing massive energy levels (2353). This is another day for the experienced crew, the wave quality is going to be top-notch with that long period and clean face.

Tuesday the 11th is the absolute standout of the whole forecast. The wind drops to almost nothing with glassy conditions for the afternoon session. We’re still getting a solid 6ft SSE groundswell with a very long 12-second period. The energy remains strong (911). This is as good as it gets for Siriu – glassy, clean, and a solid, powerful groundswell. Make your plans for this afternoon.

Wednesday the 12th and Thursday the 13th see a return of cross-shore winds and more marginal conditions, though the swell hangs around. The energy is still there, but the wind is a problem.

Friday the 14th is another cracker. Glassy conditions again, this time in the morning, with 6ft of SSE groundswell at a very long 14 seconds. Energy is up there (1115). This is going to be another clean, high-quality session for the experienced surfer.

The following week drops off a bit. Saturday the 15th and Sunday the 16th are okay with clean wind and smaller but fun waves, but nothing compared to the glory days of the 11th. Then we hit a rough patch from the 16th afternoon through the 21st with onshore winds and poor conditions.

There is one bright spot later on. Wednesday the 19th morning looks promising with glassy conditions and 4ft of ENE swell, but the fetch is shorter. Then, as we get into the 22nd, the swell drops away to nothing. A long-range, less certain mention for the 19th morning, but don’t hold your breath.

So to wrap it up, the best surf on offer is Tuesday the 11th afternoon for that glassy perfection, with Sunday the 9th and Friday the 14th as close runner-ups. Get out there.
