The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here, and let me tell you about the forecast for Surfers Point. This is a reef break that fires on a solid SW groundswell, but you gotta be on your game—it's advanced territory and very consistent.
Right now, the water is sitting at about 66°, which is a touch warmer than what we usually get this time of year. The first few days of this run are a bit of a mixed bag. We’ve got a solid 10 ft SW swell rolling in on Tuesday afternoon, with a decent 14-second period, and the combined energy is pumping at 4218. But the wind is a cross-shore from the south at 10 km/h, which is just okay. The swell is a bit blown out, making for a marginal session.
Wednesday morning is a much better bet. The swell drops a touch to 8 ft from the SW, but the period is still a nice 13 seconds, and that wind swings around to a light offshore from the NE at 15 km/h. That’s clean, and the combined energy is still a solid 3068. It’s a good window for experienced surfers.
Thursday sees the swell drop to around 6 ft, but the wind is a stronger offshore from the NNE at 20 km/h, keeping it clean. The energy is down to 1937, so it’s not as punchy. By the afternoon, the wind shifts onshore, and the rain comes with it, so the morning is your only shot.
Now, Friday is a write-off. That swell pumps back up to 12-13 ft with a very long 16-second period, but the wind is howling onshore from the NW and SW at 25-30 km/h. The energy is massive—6634 to 7497—but it’s going to be a total mess. Kite surfers might love it, but for paddle surfing, it’s a no-go.
Saturday, August 1st is the standout of the entire forecast. This is where it gets serious. We’re looking at a 15 ft to 16 ft SW groundswell with a 14-15 second period. The wind goes glassy offshore from the ESE and SE at 15 km/h. The combined energy is off the charts at 10317 and 10105, and the reports are calling it exceptional for experts. This is big, powerful, and clean. If you’re an expert, this is your day. Beginners, stay far away.
Sunday, August 2nd stays solid with 10 ft SW swell, but the wind is a cross-off from the NNE at 20 km/h in the morning, dropping to 15 km/h in the afternoon. It’s clean, but not as pristine as Saturday. The energy is still strong at 4274.
Monday and Tuesday of the following week keep the SW swell going, but the wind picks up. Monday sees 7-8 ft swell with a stiff NNE wind, and Tuesday jumps to 12 ft with a very long 17-second period, but the wind is a messy cross-shore and cross-on. The energy is huge—7079 to 7385—but the wind is a problem.
Wednesday, August 5th is the second big standout. The swell is 12 ft to 15 ft from the SW with a 16-17 second period, and the wind goes light and offshore from the SSE and SE. The combined energy peaks at 11439. This is another exceptional window for experts, and it’s looking clean.
Thursday, August 6th through Friday, August 7th is a rough patch. The swell is big—12 ft to 15 ft—but the wind is onshore from the NW, W, and WNW, blowing 20-35 km/h. It’s lumpy and messy.
Saturday, August 8th and Sunday, August 9th are the biggest of the run. We’re looking at 15 ft to 20 ft SW groundswells with 15-17 second periods. The combined energy is absolutely massive—16894 to 23093. The reports say the swell is predicted to be too big for this break, and the wind is strong cross-shore and onshore. This is for experts only, and even then, it’s wild.
The tail end of the forecast, from Monday, August 10th to Wednesday, August 12th, fades out. The swell drops to 6 ft to 8 ft, but the wind is onshore and strong, especially on the 12th with a 40 km/h NW wind. The energy is low, and the conditions are poor.
So, to wrap it up: Saturday, August 1st is the absolute best of the bunch—big, clean, and powerful. Wednesday, August 5th is a close second. The rest of the window is either blown out, too big, or just marginal. If you’re an expert, mark your calendar for the 1st and the 5th.
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.
