The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s get into what the charts are showing for the next couple of weeks at our local standout.
Right off the bat, we’ve got a monster building. The first few days are a write-off with messy, blown-out conditions, but hold tight. The real story starts on Friday the 4th, when a massive 20ft SW groundswell arrives, but it’s simply too big for anyone but the bravest pros at Surfers Point. The wave energy is absolutely pumping – we’re looking at a reading of 15581 – but the wind is a messy cross-onshore. It’s a beast to watch, not to paddle.
The weather cleans up nicely into Sunday the 6th, but we’re still dealing with a big, chunky 15ft to 16ft SW groundswell. The cross-onshore wind is lighter, but it’s still a bit too unruly for most. The real gem, the one that has me excited, is Tuesday the 8th. For the morning session, we’ve got a pumping 13ft SW groundswell with a very long period of 16 seconds, and the wind goes glassy. *Glassy*, people. This is exceptional, clean surf, but it’s strictly for expert surfers. The wave energy is a solid 8496, meaning there’s plenty of power. That Tuesday morning is hands down the best on offer.
After that, the size drops a bit, but the wind pattern stays tricky. Wednesday the 9th afternoon sees another massive energy spike to 17770 from a 13ft SW groundswell with a 19-second period, but the cross-shore wind kills the quality for paddle surfing – that setup looks far more appealing for the kite crew. The rest of the second week, from the 10th onward, is a frustrating mix of decent swell sizes (10ft to 18ft) and poor, onshore winds, so we’re looking at a lot of choppy, lumpy conditions. Reliable options become very slim.
That Tuesday morning, the 8th of September. That’s the one you wait for.
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.
