The Lowdown
G’day, Rusty here. Look, I’ll be straight with you – the next 16 days at Ramsgate (The Wall) are a tough watch. We’re looking at a solid run of flat, weak, or messy conditions that just won’t line up. There’s a gap of nearly a week right off the bat where you’d be wasting your time, with nothing worth paddling out for. The whole period is plagued by tiny swell, short periods, and wind that’s mostly cross, cross-off, or cross-on, rarely giving us the clean glass we need.
The first whiff of anything that could be called a wave comes on Saturday the 19th of September. The morning sees the biggest swell of the forecast – 5 ft from the SSW – but with a short period of just 6 seconds, it’s weak and unorganised. The wind is cross, creating a slight chop. The combined energy hits 177 (moderate), but the wave comment is clear: it’s still poor surf. After that, things drop right back into the tiny stuff or flat spells. We get a brief uptick on Wednesday the 23rd of September, with a morning swell of 5 ft from the SW at 6 seconds (energy 147), and then the afternoon pushing 5 ft from the SSW at 7 seconds (energy 205 – moderate). Winds are cross or cross-shore, so it’s not totally blown out, but the period is still too short for any proper shape. The best of a bad lot might be that Wednesday afternoon, but honestly, it’s a stretch.
This spot needs a solid SW groundswell and clean offshore wind to fire, and we aren’t getting either. The water temp is about average for the time of year, nothing wild. For the beginners, a couple of these smaller days (under 5 ft) might be doable, but the wind will ruin it. For the experienced crew, the bigger days on the 19th and 23rd are over 5 ft, but the short period makes them lumpy and weak – more of a grovel than a thrill. With the poor quality and strong cross-shore winds on those days, this is looking more like a spot for the kites than a paddle surfer.
Bottom line: there’s no standout session in this window. It’s a lean, frustrating stretch. But forecasts can flip – never say never.
