Towradgi Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright, Rusty here. Let’s cut to the chase: the next couple of weeks are looking mostly flat and messy. We got a long stretch of small, wind-blown surf that’s gonna test your patience. It’s looking like a solid week to ten days of meh before anything gets interesting.

The first real highlight is on Thursday morning, the 10th. There’s a decent pulse of south swell that should push the wave height up to around 8 feet. The period is about 10 seconds, so it has some energy. The wind is a light SSW cross-off, which is gonna keep the surface clean. The energy reading is 2063, which is strong. That’s your standout window right there. However, the swell is straight south, not the best direction for Towradgi, so it might be a bit raw, but it's the best we're going to see. The afternoon gets messy as the wind turns onshore.

Before that, Wednesday the 9th is a total washout. It’s small early, then the swell builds fast but gets chopped up by a strong onshore breeze. Friday the 11th has some leftover swell, but a light cross-onshore wind keeps it marginal.

Then from Saturday the 12th through to about Wednesday the 16th, it’s pretty much a waiting game. Small swells, poor waves, nothing worth getting wet for. Energy readings drop right off, sometimes below 100. There’s a brief glassy period on Thursday afternoon the 17th with clean, small waves, but it’s weak – a log day at best.

Into the following weekend and early the week after, the models show the swell shifting to the ENE and NE, but with short periods and onshore winds. The energy stays moderate, and quality looks poor. Even though the direction changes, it doesn’t bring any good surf.

So, the one true standout, the only window with real punch, is that Thursday morning the 10th. Get on it if you can, because after that, it's a long drought. Keep the board close, but don't hold your breath.

Rusty out.
