The Lowdown

Alright, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s coming up for Spot X. It’s a reef setup, exposed to the swell, and it likes it from the WSW. The water temp is right on the money for this time of year, nothing unusual.

Right off the bat, we’ve got a rough start. Tuesday the 25th and Wednesday the 26th are a wash. We’re talking a solid 8ft to 16ft of WSW swell, but it’s getting hammered by strong cross and cross-onshore winds. The wave energy is through the roof, but it’s just a messy, lumpy, cross-chop nightmare. Not worth paddling out for.

Thursday the 27th and Friday the 28th stay pretty average. Still a solid 8ft to 13ft of SW groundswell, but that fresh cross-shore wind keeps it lumpy and grovelly. You might snag a couple, but it’s nothing to write home about.

Then we hit the first stand out. Saturday morning, August 29th. That’s the one. We’ve got a clean 6ft SW groundswell with a very long 16-second period, and the wind goes light and cross-offshore from the SE. The reef will love that long period, giving you some proper, powerful lines. The combined energy is moderate, but it’s clean. This is for the experienced crew – it’s not a beginner wave at that size and period.

Sunday morning, August 30th, is also a gem. A bigger 10ft WSW groundswell, still with that long 16-second pulse, and a gentle offshore breeze from the N. That’ll be glassy for a while. The energy is strong, and the description calls it exceptional for experts. This is a big, powerful day for the confident surfer. Crowds are possible here sometimes, but on a morning like that, it might be worth the company.

Monday the 31st and Tuesday September 1st see the swell dropping a touch to 8ft, but the cross-onshore wind creeps back in, making it choppy again. Not great.

The middle of the first week of September is a total bust. Wednesday the 3rd through to Sunday the 7th is a solid block of big, windy, messy surf. Swells from 10ft to 13ft, but hammered by strong to fresh onshore winds. The energy is huge, but it’s just a washing machine.

Then we get one more bright spot in the second week. Tuesday morning, September 8th. A clean 10ft SW groundswell with a 15-second period, and a gentle offshore from the NE. That’s clean, powerful, and for the experienced surfer only. Wave energy is moderate. Promising, but it’s a way out, so keep an eye on the forecast.

Wednesday the 9th drops back to 6ft and clean cross-off winds, but the energy is lower. A fun option if the big days are too much.

Overall, there are a couple of true standouts here: Saturday August 29th morning and Sunday August 30th morning are your best bets, with Tuesday September 8th morning as a promising long-range look. The rest is a whole lot of wind and chop.

Stay salty,
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.

Spot x is 75 km (47 miles) from the city of Bunbury. If you plan a holiday in Margaret River, look for hotels and other accommodation in Bunbury. Bunbury has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
