The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you: if you’re looking to paddle out at St Andrews State Park over the next 16 days, you’re going to need a whole lot of patience. The entire outlook is a struggle, with barely a ripple to get excited about. The swell is tiny, the winds are mostly onshore or cross, and the scores are all zeros.
We start off with nothing on Thursday 3rd September – just a tiny 0.3 ft windswell from the SE with a short 5 second period, and a light cross-on breeze. Water temp is sitting at 86°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, but you won't be feeling it on a day like this. Friday and Saturday are a complete write-off with no swell to speak of. Sunday 6th September offers a meagre 1 ft to 1 ft from the WSW, but the wind is a cross-on 9-12 mph, making it choppy and messy.
The best of a bad lot looks like Monday 7th September morning. We’ve got a tiny 2 ft from the west, a 4 second period, and a light cross-on breeze. The combined energy is a weak 7, so it's not going to be doing much, but it's the cleanest window we have in the first week. The following days are just more of the same – tiny, blown-out, or flat.
The only real glimmer in this whole 16-day stretch shows up on Tuesday 15th September. The morning session sees a 3 ft swell from the SE with a 5 second period, and clean conditions thanks to a light cross-off breeze from the ENE. The combined energy climbs to 36, which is still weak but at least a step up. The afternoon looks even better, with glassy conditions and a 2 ft SSE swell. For a beach/jetty setup, this is the standout, but it’s still small stuff. After that, it’s back to the same old story of tiny, short-period windswell through to the 18th.
Honestly, for the whole 16 days, there’s nothing that’s even close to worth a proper session. The setup is more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing. Keep your board in the car, but don’t hold your breath.
