The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s cookin’ for Solanas. I gotta be straight with you – the next couple of weeks are looking pretty damn quiet. We’ve got a long stretch of nothing ahead, so don’t be in a rush to wax up.
The outlook starts with a big fat zero. From Tuesday the 1st right through to the morning of Friday the 11th of September, it’s a total blank. No swell to speak of, just clean, small conditions and some light breezes. It’s pretty, but there’s no surf. You’re looking at a solid 10-day gap of flatness.
Finally, on Friday morning the 11th of September, we see a tiny pulse. We’re talking a 0.3ft swell from the SE, with a period of just 5 seconds. The combined energy is a measly 1 (weak energy). It’s glassy in the morning, which is a nice feeling, but the wave itself is barely there. Afternoon turns into a 1.0ft onshore mess. Not worth paddling out for.
Saturday the 12th starts with a bit of a cross-shore chop from a 12 mph wind, and a 0.3ft SE swell – still nothing. Sunday the 13th and Monday the 14th are more of the same; tiny 0.3ft swell from the SW and W.
Now, there’s a glimmer. Tuesday morning the 15th of September. The swell finally bumps up to 3ft from the WSW, with a period of 5 seconds. The combined energy hits 54 (still weak), but we’ve got clean conditions with a light offshore from the NNW. It’s surfable, but pretty ordinary. The afternoon gets choppy again.
Wednesday the 16th of September morning sees the swell drop back to 2ft from the WNW, period of 3 seconds, energy of 10 (weak). Clean again, but it’s barely a ripple.
Look, truth is, there’s no standout here. The best on offer is that Tuesday morning the 15th, with a 3ft WSW swell and clean offshore winds. If you’re desperate for a paddle, that’s your window. But don’t expect much. The water temp is about average for this time of year, nothing wild.
For the rest of the run, it’s a waiting game. Conditions are clean a lot of the time, but the swell just isn’t showing up. Hang tight.
Rusty.

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