The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you – this 16-day window for Solanas is a tough one. We’ve got a long, dry spell with no surf to speak of for the first two weeks, and even when something tiny shows up, the conditions just aren’t cooperating. The water is sitting at a very unusual 84° – that’s 7° warmer than normal for this time of year, so it feels like a bathtub out there.
The first real chance to get wet doesn’t arrive until late in the game. Wednesday morning, September 17th, we might see a tiny pulse of swell from the SE. It’s only 2ft, but the wind is light and offshore from the NNE, which should keep things clean. The combined energy is a weak 18, so don’t expect any power. A long period of 5 seconds means it’s just windswell, small and weak. Not a standout, just the only game in town.
Then, that same afternoon, September 17th, the swell stays around 2ft from the SE, with a bit more energy (23) but the wind swings cross-shore from the SSE. It’s still light, so it won’t be a mess, but it’s not glassy. Honestly, this is the best on offer, and that’s a tough pill to swallow. For a beginner-friendly spot like Solanas, these tiny, clean waves are about as good as it’s going to get in this outlook.
The rest of the forecast is a long stretch of zeros or weak, blown-out mush. If you’re desperate for a paddle, Wednesday the 17th is your window. The wind is light and offshore in the morning, so the surface will be clean. But don’t kid yourself – this is a marginal session at best.
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.
