The Lowdown

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

Straight up, Tandjung-Lefts is going to be a tricky one for a while. There’s a steady stream of SSW groundswell coming in, but the wind just won’t cooperate. It’s mostly cross-onshore, keeping the surface messy. Water temp is about what you’d expect for this time of year.

Your best shot is Saturday, August 29th, and I mean the morning. You’ve got a clean 6ft of SSW groundswell rolling in with a long 15-second period, and the wind is a light cross-shore from the SSE at only 6 mph. That’s as good as it gets here for the whole forecast. The wave energy is moderate-to-strong (1405), so there’s plenty of power. It’s a consistent reef for advanced surfers, and since crowds are only "sometimes" a problem, you might have some room. That long period will give the waves great shape, but expect longer lulls between sets. The rest of that weekend and the following week is all cross-onshore wind, chopping things up.

There’s a small chance on the afternoon of Saturday, September 5th, with a cross-shore wind and 6ft swell (1179), but it’s still only marginal. Into the second week, starting September 7th, the swell sticks around but the wind stays on it, mostly moderate cross-onshore. The period stays long, but the chop is relentless. By September 12th, the swell jumps up over 7ft, and the wave energy gets strong (2140 to 3295), but with 15 mph cross-onshore winds, it’s going to be a blown-out mess. That kind of wind and size is more for kite surfers than paddle surfers. If you can get out that first Saturday morning, that’s your only real window.

Rusty.

Information about the Tandjung-Lefts Surf forecast

The above surf forecast table for Tandjung-Lefts provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Tandjung-Lefts can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Tandjung-Lefts 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 (Tandjung-Lefts) 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 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.
