The Lowdown
Alright, let’s break it down the other way. The standout here is Surfers Point, a reef break that lights up when the swell direction and wind line up. Water temp is about 66°F right now, a touch warmer than normal for this time of year.
Sunday morning, August 30th, kicks it off with a 12 ft SW groundswell at a 17-second period – that’s long-period, powerful stuff. Combined swell energy is 6471 (moderate-strong). Wind is light NNE at 6 mph, blowing cross-offshore. That’s going to produce clean, well-shaped waves for the experts. This is your first standout window. Swell direction is right in the optimum for this spot.
Sunday afternoon the wind swings NW to 9 mph, cross-on, and the swell drops to 10 ft. Less clean, but still surfable.
Monday, August 31st, the wind howls from the WNW at 16 mph, onshore, and it’s chopped out. Not worth it. That trend holds through Tuesday and Wednesday.
Thursday, September 3rd, brings heavy rain and strong onshore winds up to 28 mph. Ugly.
Now circle Friday morning, September 4th. We get a massive 20 ft SW swell at 16 seconds, combined energy at 18221 (strong). That is big, heavy, expert-only territory. Wind is cross-on from the SSW at 16 mph, so it’s not pristine, but the size and energy are world-class. The afternoon eases a bit.
Saturday, September 5th, is blown out with storms and strong winds.
Sunday, September 6th, has 16 ft to 18 ft WSW swell with a long 17-second period. Combined energy over 18000. Hardcore stuff.
Monday, September 7th, is the one to save the date for. Morning shows a 21 ft SW swell at 17 seconds – combined energy 24653 (very strong). Wind is light west at 6 mph, onshore, but that west wind can flatten the surface at this break. Monday means less crowds. If you’re an expert and you want the biggest, longest-period waves of this forecast, this is the morning.
After that, the size drops. Wednesday morning, September 9th, turns glassy with a light west wind and an 8 ft SW groundswell at 15 seconds. That’s a clean, fun session for experienced surfers.
The second week gets messy with strong winds and rain around the 12th and 13th. The last decent window is Monday, September 14th, with a light cross-on breeze and 12 ft WSW swell, but it’s not a highlight.

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.
