The Lowdown

Alright, Rusty here again, but we’re switching to feet and miles per hour. Let’s talk about The Maze (Tiree). The first week of this forecast is a total loss. From Monday the 14th right through to Sunday the 20th of September, it's just onshore gale-force winds and messy, unsurfable junk. A long, empty stretch.

Okay, the light at the end of the tunnel. Wednesday the 23rd of September is your first real chance. Clean conditions, light cross-offshore breeze from the southeast. The swell is a manageable 7ft from the west with a period around 10 seconds – not massive, but clean and rideable. Combined energy is moderate (962). Grab your funboard.

Now for the standout: Thursday the 24th of September. The afternoon is where it’s at. We’re talking a clean 12ft swell from the west, with a deep 17-second period – that’s proper groundswell energy. The combined energy reads strong (7418). Those long-period waves need structure to shine, and the reef and point setup at The Maze is perfect for it. This is serious wave height, well over 8ft, so experts only. The wind stays light and cross-offshore, keeping it clean as a whistle. This is your window.

After that, the weekend fades fast, with weaker, smaller waves and bumpy winds rolling back in by Saturday the 26th and Sunday the 27th. Make sure you’re on it for Thursday.

Rusty, signing off.
