The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s break it down.

First up, we’ve got Tandjung-Lefts. This is an advanced reef break, and it’s consistent. The water temp is sitting at 79.9°, which is right on the money for this time of year, so no surprises there.

Right off the bat, sorry to say, but the surf is pretty average. The whole 16-day window is a bit of a struggle. The first couple of days are not great. Saturday the 5th has some 6.6ft SSW swell, but it’s coming in with a cross-onshore wind from the SSE, which is leaving it choppy and messy. The energy is there, with a combined swell energy reading of 1894, but the wind is just ruining the party. That trend continues through Sunday and Monday. The swell is decent, but the wind is always cross-on or cross-shore, meaning the surface is never glassy. The period is long, like 14 to 16 seconds, which is proper groundswell, but with the wind chop, it’s not going to be the clean, lined-up left we want.

There is a slight uptick on Wednesday the 9th. We’ve got 7.9ft SSW swell with a 16-second period, and the wind goes more cross-shore, so the chop is less. The energy is pumping at 2829. This is the best window in the first week. Still, it’s not perfect, and the cross-shore wind will put some texture on the face. For an advanced break, it’ll be rideable, but it’s not the stand-out clean session we’re hoping for.

After that, it’s a long grind. The wind stays stubbornly cross-on from the SE or ESE for most of the second week. The swell drops a bit, but we also get some bigger energy pulses around the 13th and 16th, with solid 4.6ft to 5.9ft swell and combined energy readings hitting 2163 and 1543. But again, the wind is the killer. It’s consistently moderate cross-onshore, making it choppy and messy. There’s a brief moment on Sunday the 20th where the wind turns light and onshore, but the records show "unknown" conditions, so we can’t really count on that being a hero session.

Overall, the whole 16-day run is a bit of a write-off. The swell is there, but the wind is never on our side. If you’re desperate, Wednesday the 9th and the weekend of the 13th-14th have the most energy, but it’s going to be a battle against the chop. The rest of the time, it’s just marginal at best. I’d be looking at other options if you’ve got them.

A general guide to surfing at Tandjung-Lefts can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu.

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 Tandjung-Lefts 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.
