The Lowdown
G’day, Rusty here.
Let’s talk about what’s coming up for Tramandai Pier over the next couple weeks. It’s a real mixed run, with a few clean windows but plenty of lumpy, cross-shore days to sit through. The one to circle on the calendar is Saturday afternoon, but there are a couple other sessions worth suiting up for.
We kick off Wednesday August 5th with tiny 3ft SSE swell and glassy conditions in the morning – clean but barely any push. Water temp is 65°, a touch warmer than usual for this time of year. Thursday stays small at 2ft, glassy in the morning but still a grind. Friday morning is blown out with 30 mph winds, but Friday afternoon brings a jump to 8ft from the SSW with a 12-second period and clean conditions – solid energy but more of a late-day option.
Now Saturday August 8th afternoon is the real standout. You get 7ft of SSE swell at 12 seconds, glassy with offshore wind from the west at just 3 mph. The energy is strong, and conditions are excellent for experienced surfers. The swell is over 5ft, so it’s not for beginners, but for anyone who knows what they’re doing, this is the session. Tramandai Pier can get crowded sometimes, so keep your eyes open.
Sunday August 9th drops to 3ft in the morning with clean cross-off winds – a nice relaxed paddle but nothing special. The rest of the following week is mostly onshore and lumpy. Monday and Tuesday run 5ft to 7ft but with cross-onshore winds and chop. Energy stays moderate to strong, but quality is lacking.
Thursday August 13th afternoon has 7ft from the ESE with a short 6-second period but clean cross-off winds – weird combo, big but disorganised. Saturday August 15th morning hits 10ft from the SSE with a 14-second period, but the wind is onshore at 18 mph, making it a blown-out mess.
Into the second week, things clean up a bit. Monday August 17th afternoon is 10ft from the ENE but it’s too big for this break, so stay clear. Tuesday August 18th morning is promising: 8ft from the ENE with a 9-second period and fresh offshore wind from the WNW at 18 mph – clean but for experienced surfers only. Wednesday August 19th morning is 5ft from the ENE with moderate offshore wind – clean and fun. Thursday August 20th morning is glassy with 3ft ENE swell, perfect for a longboard or a learner session.
Bottom line: Saturday August 8th afternoon is the one to go for. Thursday August 13th afternoon and Tuesday August 18th morning are decent backup options for the crew with experience. The rest is a waiting game.
Rusty.
