The Lowdown

G’day, Rusty here. Look, I’m gonna level with you. The next 16 days at Tramandai Pier (Platforma) are a real mixed bag, but mostly a bag of ordinary. The water temperature is about 62°F, which is pretty much bang on normal for this time of year, so no surprises there.

We start off with a bit of hope. Sunday the 26th, the morning is nothing to write home about—4ft of weak, short-period E swell with a light cross-breeze, but honestly, it’s marginal. The real moment comes on Sunday afternoon. The wind goes glassy, dead calm, and we get 4ft of clean E swell. It’s small, but it’s the cleanest it’ll be for a while. That’s your best bet for a fun, easy session.

Monday the 27th, the morning starts glassy again with 2ft of ESE swell, but it’s very ordinary. By afternoon, the wind swings cross-onshore and it’s gone. Tuesday the 28th is a write-off with 2ft S swell and rain, though the afternoon goes glassy on 2ft again—tiny but clean. Wednesday the 29th and Thursday the 30th offer clean, light offshore winds in the mornings, but the swell is tiny, around 2-2ft. You’ll get a few ankle-biters, but nothing to get excited about.

Then we hit a rough patch. Friday the 31st, the wind howls onshore at 15 mph, and the swell is messy. Saturday the 1st of August, the morning is still rough, but by the afternoon we get a window: 5ft of ENE swell and a gentle offshore wind from the W. That’s clean, and the combined energy is moderate. It’s the standout of the entire period. If you can wait, that’s your session.

After that, it’s a long, bleak run. Sunday the 2nd is tiny and glassy, but then from Monday the 3rd to Saturday the 8th, the wind is mostly onshore, often strong, and the swell is either small or blown out. There’s a bit of size on the 4th and 5th—7ft and 6ft of E swell—but it’s all cross-onshore and messy. Not worth paddling out for. The morning of the 5th is cross-shore, but the afternoon turns clean with a gentle offshore from the WNW and 5ft ENE swell. That’s another decent option, but it’s a week and a half away.

Sunday the 9th and Monday the 10th of August bring some size again—up to 6ft of SSW swell—but the wind is cross-shore and the conditions are marginal. The energy is strong, but the wind is just not cooperating.

Overall, the pick of the whole 16 days is Saturday the 1st of August afternoon. Clean offshore, 5ft ENE swell, and a decent wave. Don’t get your hopes up for much else. The setup here is a beach/pier, so when the wind is onshore, it’s just a washing machine. Could be more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing on those blown-out days.

Rusty.
