The Lowdown
G'day, Rusty here, lookin' at the surf for the next couple of weeks.
We've got a serious pulse of swell on the way, but it's gonna be a bit of a wild ride before we see any truly clean waves. The standout session by a country mile is Friday morning, the 21st of August.
The main event is at Surfers Point. This is a solid, exposed reef break, and it's gonna be absolutely pumping. We're talking a serious 15ft swell from the WSW early in the week, with very long 16-second periods, driven by a massive wave energy reading of 10,971. That's some serious ocean grunt. But the wind is gonna be a mess for a few days – cross-onshore and messy.
The water is sitting at 67°, which is a touch warmer than usual for this time of year.
Now, hold onto your hats for Friday morning, the 21st. The swell drops a bit to a still-very-chunky 12ft, still from the SW with a long 15-second period (wave energy 5,500). But the wind goes glassy. Totally dead. Offshore, clean, perfect conditions. For the experts out there, this is gonna be an exceptional session. That's your window. The morning is the call; by the afternoon, the wind swings cross-onshore again.
Saturday the 22nd through to the end of the month is a bit of a mixed bag. The swell hangs around, dropping from 10ft to 8ft, but it's plagued by bumpy cross-onshore winds. There are a few mornings with lighter breezes, but nothing that'll compare to that Friday glass-off.
Heading into the second week, it gets more uncertain. The first few days of September have some solid 10ft to 12ft swell still on the cards, but the wind looks to be up again, making for choppy conditions. It's a promising picture, but a long way out, so keep an eye on it.
So, to sum it up: the early week is big and ugly, the absolute pick of the bunch is Friday morning the 21st at dawn for the experts. After that, it's a waiting game for the wind to play nice again. Stay tuned.
Rusty.

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