The Lowdown
Alright, folks, Rusty here. Let's get into it.
We’ve got a solid window of swell coming up, but it’s a real mixed bag of conditions. The standout is Surfers Point, a top-tier reef break for advanced surfers only. Don't even think about paddling out here if you're not comfortable with powerful, heavy waves.
The action kicks off on Wednesday, September 9th. Wednesday morning sees a clean 10.0ft SW groundswell (15-second period) with a light NE cross-offshore breeze. The water is a touch warmer than normal at 64.6°F and the energy is pumping hard (4032). Wednesday afternoon holds at 10.0ft SW with a glassy SE offshore wind, making for some absolutely perfect, clean waves. This is the best day of the entire period for experienced surfers, no question. The combined energy is massive (3622).
Thursday, September 10th, drops off a bit. Morning has a 6.9ft SW swell (14 seconds) but a stronger NNE wind (12 mph) that keeps it clean but less ideal. The afternoon gets a little messy with a cross-onshore breeze.
Friday, September 11th, the swell bumps back up to 9.8ft WSW (18 seconds) in the afternoon, but a strong NNW cross-shore wind (16 mph) puts a chop on it. The morning is cleaner with a 6.9ft swell but still windy. The wave energy is huge (4786) but the wind is a problem.
Saturday, September 12th, and Sunday, September 13th, are a write-off. Onshore winds (W, WNW, WSW) up to 22 mph make a mess of the big 10.0ft to 11.5ft swell. The break is completely blown out. Not worth getting wet.
Now, Monday, September 14th, is a hidden gem. The morning is glassy with a 11.5ft WSW swell (14 seconds) and a massive 5082 energy reading. The water is glassy, the waves are big and powerful. This is the second-best session of the run, but only for experts. The afternoon has a 13.1ft swell, but a cross-shore wind puts a slight chop on it.
The rest of the week into the weekend (Sept 15-20) is a series of marginal to poor conditions. The swell is consistently big, but the wind is never quite right. It's either cross-shore, cross-onshore, or strong onshore. On Saturday, September 19th, a massive 21.3ft WSW swell (14 seconds) rolls in, but with a near-gale cross-onshore wind (31 mph), the lineup is a dangerous, blown-out mess. The energy is off the charts (23246) but it's a full-on survival mission, not a surf session.
The real magic returns on Monday, September 22nd, with a clean 13.1ft SW swell (16 seconds) and a cross-offshore SSE wind. The energy is strong (7251). But the absolute standout of the second week is Wednesday, September 23rd. A clean 16.4ft SW groundswell (16 seconds) with a clean, moderate offshore wind from the ESE. The energy is immense (12353) and the conditions are described as "exceptional" for expert surfers. This is a powerful, long-period groundswell, so it will be at its best barreling down the reef at Surfers Point. Get ready for a serious session.
Thursday, September 24th, is a solid follow-up with a 11.5ft to 9.8ft SW swell and clean cross-offshore winds, but it's a step down from the peak on Wednesday.
So, to sum it up: the absolute best bets are Wednesday, September 9th for the cleanest, glassiest conditions, and Monday, September 14th for the glassy morning session. In the second week, Wednesday, September 23rd is the one to circle. All of these are for experienced surfers only. The crowds at Surfers Point are often thick, so expect a full lineup.

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.
Surfers Point is 93 km (58 miles) from the city of Bunbury. If you plan a holiday in Margaret River, look for hotels and other accommodation in Bunbury. Bunbury has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
