The Lowdown
G’day, Rusty here, and I’ve been staring at the charts for the next couple of weeks. To be upfront, this is a bit of a tough one for the region. The only spot showing any real potential is Tandjung-Rights, a reef break for advanced surfers. It’s a very consistent wave, but the wind is going to be a constant problem. The water is sitting at 80°F, which is pretty much bang on average for this time of year.
We’ve got a solid run of swell coming in, but the wind is a killer. From Wednesday the 12th of August right through, it’s mostly a cross-onshore breeze. The swell is solid, with waves around 7 ft to 8 ft coming from the SSW, and that’s long-period groundswell, 15 to 17 seconds, which carries a lot of energy. The combined energy of all swells is strong to very strong, hitting values like 2043 up to 3649, so there’s plenty of power in the water. But with that cross-onshore wind, it’s going to be choppy and messy.
The best chance for a session is probably around Monday the 17th of August, when we get a brief window of offshore wind on the morning, with a clean 5 ft SSW swell. It’s only a small window, though, and the energy is still moderate (939). The following Tuesday, the 18th, also has a moment of offshore wind in the afternoon with a 6 ft SSW swell, and that’s a bit more energy (2016), but it’s still a gamble.
The swell is over 8 ft for a few days, which is expert-only territory, and with the chop, it’s going to be a real battle. For a point break like this, the long period is good, but the wind is the enemy. There are no standout days that I’d say are a sure thing. It’s a case of watching the forecast closely and hoping the wind shifts. If you’re a solid surfer and don’t mind ugly conditions, you might score some raw power, but it’s not the clean, glassy stuff we all dream of.
Rusty.

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 Tandjungs-Rights 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.
