The Lowdown
G’day, I’m Rusty, and here’s how the next 16 days look for Tramandai Pier (Platforma) – a beach/pier setup that’s pretty exposed but can fire when the stars align.
The forecast starts with a bit of a dud. Friday the 31st is a write-off – 7ft of lumpy, cross-on slop with weak energy (534) and a short 6-second period. Not worth paddling out. Saturday the 1st is even worse, barely a ripple. We’ve got a couple of days of near nothing until Sunday the 2nd finally gives us something. That morning, a clean window opens with a 4ft swell from the ENE, 8-second period, and a light cross-offshore breeze. The energy is moderate (236), and while it’s not huge, it’s the first decent look. The water temp is 63°, which is about average for this time of year.
Monday the 3rd and Tuesday the 4th are mixed. Monday is chopped out, but Tuesday the 4th is a real gem – glassy conditions with a 3ft SSE swell, 11-second period, and moderate energy (297). That’s clean, long-period groundswell, best for the point or reef, though it’s a beach/pier setup so expect it to be a bit straight. Still, for a Tuesday morning, it’s a standout.
The standout session, though, is Sunday the 9th into Monday the 10th. Sunday afternoon has a 6ft SSE swell, a very long 16-second period, and clean cross-offshore winds. The energy is strong (1761) – this is proper groundswell, powerful and with long gaps between sets. It’s a big swell (over 5ft) so it’s not for beginners, and the long period might make it a bit tricky at the beach break, but for experienced surfers, it’s the best on offer. Monday the 10th holds similar size (6ft) and period (14 seconds) with light onshore wind, but it’s still good.
Tuesday the 11th afternoon is another clean, glassy look with a 4ft SSE swell, 12-second period, and light cross-offshore breeze. The energy is moderate (776), but the conditions are smooth. Crowds are possible at Tramandai Pier, so get in early.
The later part of the window, around Friday the 14th, looks promising. Friday afternoon has a 6ft S swell, 11-second period, and glassy conditions – this is excellent for experienced surfers, with strong energy (1251). Saturday the 15th morning is also clean with a 6ft SE swell, 9-second period, and light cross-offshore breeze, though there’s moderate rain.
Overall, the best bets are Tuesday the 4th for a smaller, glassy session, and Sunday the 9th to Monday the 10th for the biggest, most powerful groundswell. The second week holds some promise, but keep an eye on the wind.
Rusty.
