Super Suck Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright folks, it's Rusty here, and let's dive into what the next couple of weeks have in store for us. The standout spot this period is hands-down Super Suck, a reef and point setup that's really going to fire. For the most part, we're looking at a solid run of surf, but you've got to pick your moments with the wind and the size.

The water here is sitting at a normal 79°F for the time of year, nothing out of the ordinary there.

We kick off on Wednesday afternoon, the 26th of August. Swell is a clean 5ft from the SSW, and with a gentle offshore wind from the ESE, it’s going to be glassy. The combined energy is moderate at 908, a nice way to start.

Thursday the 27th sees a smaller wave but a real increase in quality. Morning brings a 4ft SW groundswell with a long 16-second period and a cross-off breeze. The energy jumps to 1140, and it cleans up nicely. Thursday afternoon gets even more interesting as that period stretches to a very long 20 seconds with a 3ft SW swell. The energy hits a moderate 1702, but that wave might be a bit too straight for the beach – it’ll be pure magic on this point at Super Suck.

Now, heads up for Friday the 28th. The swell bumps up to 8ft from the SW, and that’s expert territory. The morning has a cross-shore wind making things a bit bumpy, but Friday afternoon is a real contender for the best session of the week. You’ve got 8ft of SW swell, a 16-second period, and a cleaning cross-off breeze. The energy is strong at 3368. This is for experienced surfers only.

Saturday the 29th is a bit more manageable. The swell drops to 7ft in the morning, though it’s a bit lumpy with the cross-wind. The afternoon improves to 6ft SW with clean conditions and a cross-off breeze from the SE. Sunday the 30th is a solid all-rounder: 5ft SW swell, clean conditions all day with offshore winds in the afternoon. Energy sits around the 950 mark.

Monday the 31st is a banger if you’re an experienced surfer. The morning has 4ft of a long, clean 18-second SW groundswell with a cross-off breeze, and the energy is a solid 1339. The afternoon picks up to 5ft with that same long period.

We roll into September, and Tuesday the 1st is a standout day. Morning has 7ft of SW swell, but the afternoon is where it's at: 7ft, 17-second period, and a true offshore wind from the ESE. The energy is strong at 2390, making for some powerful, clean lines.

Wednesday the 2nd keeps the quality high in the afternoon with a moderate offshore wind and 7ft of SW swell. The week following, from the 3rd through the 10th, we see a mix of good and marginal surf. The size stays in the 4ft to 7ft range, mostly from the SSW and SW, but the winds are often cross-off. There’s a lot of surf on offer, but you’ll want to keep an eye on the tide and wind reports. The long-range period around the 6th and 7th of September looks promising with clean conditions and chest-to-head high swell, and the 9th and 10th see a return of more size but with slightly more wind.

Overall, there’s a very consistent run of waves. The absolute standouts are the Friday afternoon, the 28th of August, for the big, clean barrels for experts, and the Tuesday afternoon, the 1st of September, for the clean, powerful offshore lines. Don't sleep on it.

Rusty.
