The Lowdown
Alright, folks. Rusty here. Let’s break down what’s on offer for the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, this is a tough one. We’re looking at a long stretch of tiny, weak swell with pretty much nothing to get the heart pumping. The wave energy is consistently low, most readings sitting between 12 and 64 (combined energy of all swells directed here). The water is a warm 85°, which is a touch warmer than average for this time of year.
The only break in the game is Topsy, or Hilton Bet (Topsy). It’s a beach and reef setup, exposed to the swell, and it’s fairly consistent. But the problem is the swell is just too small and the period is too short.
From Tuesday, August 4th, right through the entire forecast, every single session is listed as “poor surf conditions.” The swell height barely tops 3 ft, with periods mostly stuck in the 5 to 8 second range – that’s weak, short-period wind swell, not groundswell. There’s no standout day here. The best you could hope for is a few of the mornings when the wind goes glassy, like Wednesday the 5th, Monday the 10th, Tuesday the 11th, and Wednesday the 12th. On those mornings, you might find a tiny, clean ankle-to-knee-high wave if you’re real keen. But the swell direction is mostly WNW, which isn’t the optimum SW direction for this break.
Afternoons are a complete loss – the wind swings onshore or cross-onshore from the NW, making it choppy and messy. For a beginner-friendly break, this is just flat and inconsiderate. Honestly, with the extremely low energy and persistent wind, this setup looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing for most of the period.
There’s no real gap in recommendations, because there are no recommendations to speak of. It’s just flat and poor all the way through. A blank run like this is pretty normal for the area when the swell windows don’t align.
Rusty, signing off.
