The Lowdown

Alright, Rusty here, lookin' at the charts for the next couple of weeks. We've got one main spot to work with, and it's a mixed bag – some real gems, but also some long stretches of ugly weather. Let's get into it.

The first real surfable window is Wednesday morning, 2 September. The Tramandai Pier (Platforma) is the only game in town, and it's looking pretty good. We've got a solid 6 ft swell thumping in from the ESE, and the combined energy is pumping at a solid (656). The wind is light and offshore from the W, which is a sweet setup – clean, lined-up waves. The water is a bit colder than usual for this time of year, sitting at 60°, so you'll want a good wetsuit. This is the standout session for the early part of the forecast.

The good vibes continue into Thursday morning, 3 September. The swell drops a touch to 5 ft, still from the ESE, but the period stretches to 11 seconds, giving it some real push and shape (590). Light offshore wind again from the WNW. This is a solid, clean morning of waves.

Then we hit a dry spell. From Friday morning, 4 September through to Monday afternoon, 7 September, the surf is small, chopped, or blown out. The wind turns onshore or cross-on, and the swell is all over the place. You could probably find a knee-high closeout, but it's not worth the paddle.

Now, the big one. Thursday, 10 September is our next major standout. The morning is glassy – dead calm, with a 7 ft swell from the ENE (822). That is a lot of energy, and with glassy conditions, the waves will be clean, powerful, and a bit heavy. At 7 ft, this is territory for experienced surfers only. The afternoon cleans up with a strong offshore wind from the W, keeping the 7 ft swell (698) from the ENE in good shape.

Friday, 11 September is a tease. The swell is 6 ft at an 11-second period from the ENE (804), which is a beautiful groundswell. But the wind is messy, cross-shore or cross-on, so the quality will be middling. Not a total write-off, but not the best of the run.

Sunday morning, 13 September is an interesting one. There's a sudden jump in energy to (866) from a 5 ft E swell, with a clean cross-off wind. The period is only 9 seconds, so it's a bit of a wind swell, but the wind is right, so it'll be fun.

The next clear winner is Monday morning, 14 September. Another glassy morning! A 6 ft ENE swell (753) with no wind at all. The period is a short 7 seconds, so it's a bit lumpy and fast, but glassy conditions make up for a lot of sins. Good for a strong intermediate session.

Finally, we get another clean day on Thursday morning, 17 September. A 5 ft E swell (562) with a light cross-off breeze from the WSW. It's the last bit of decent juice in the forecast window.

Overall, if you're keen, you've got to hit Thursday, 10 September for the best combo of clean, powerful surf. The morning glass session is the pick of the lot. The Wednesday 2nd and Thursday 3rd are also excellent, clean days to start the run. Just be prepared for the long gaps of nothing in between.

This is Rusty, signing off.
