The Lowdown
Alright, this is Rusty. Let’s break down the next 16 days at Spot X, a west-southwest exposed reef break that loves a solid WSW swell. A bit of a slow start, but there are some absolute monsters lined up later.
We start Thursday the 10th of September, but the surf is just okay. Swell around 7 ft from the WSW with moderate energy, and a cross-off wind from the NE at 16 mph keeps it clean, but it’s nothing special. The water temp is a pleasant 64°, about normal for the season. The afternoon cleans up with lighter wind and a longer 15-second period, making it a decent session for experienced surfers, but not a standout.
Friday the 11th gets bigger. The swell hits 8 ft in the afternoon with an 18-second period—solid groundswell. The energy jumps to strong levels. Wind is cross-off from the NNE at 19 mph, keeping things clean looking. Still, it’s a marginal call.
Then a rough patch. Saturday the 12th and Sunday the 13th are write-offs. Onshore wind and choppy conditions. Swell is there but blown out. Skip it.
The first standout is Monday the 14th of September. The morning delivers a beautiful 13 ft swell from the WSW at 14 seconds. Massive energy. The wind is a gentle cross-off from the ESE at just 9 mph, making the surf glassy and clean. This is exceptional, expert-level surf. The afternoon gets a bit choppy, but the morning is golden.
Wednesday the 16th has some appeal with an 8 ft SW swell and a 16-second period, but the wind is onshore, so quality is questionable.
The true bomb is Saturday the 19th of September. The morning swell is predicted at a huge 23 ft from the west, with a 14-second period and insane energy. This is only for experts—way too big for almost everyone. The wind is a light cross-on from the west, so it will be a bit bumpy but rideable for the brave. The afternoon settles to a still-massive 18 ft.
Monday the 21st pumps again with a 15 ft to 16 ft SW swell and a very long 16-second period, but the wind is fresh and cross-on, making it choppy. Tuesday the 22nd is better, with a 13 ft SW swell and a clean cross-off wind from the SE.
Finally, Thursday the 24th of September is another great call for experienced surfers. A clean 10 ft SW swell with a 16-second period and a gentle cross-off breeze from the SE. Clean and powerful.
Summary: First few days are average. Skip the weekend of the 12th and 13th. Monday the 14th is your first real standout for expert-level, clean, big surf. Saturday the 19th is the biggest day of the whole forecast—only for the hardcore. Thursday the 24th is another excellent, clean day for strong surfers. Crowds are possible on the good days.
Rusty.

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