Trespassers Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s get into it. We’ve got a solid run of surf coming up at Trespassers, but it’s not all smooth sailing. The water temp is sitting right around average for the time of year at 59°, so nothing wild there.

The real action kicks off on Tuesday the 14th, but conditions are a bit junky that afternoon. It’s a clean 7 ft SSW groundswell running with a very long 16-second period, and the combined energy is strong (2413). That’s a lot of power. But the wind is cross-on, making it choppy. For the advanced crew, it’s doable, but it’s not the pick.

Wednesday the 15th morning is where it starts to get interesting. The swell drops to a still-chunky 5 ft from the SSW, period at 15 seconds, and the wind swings around to a light cross-off from the NNE. That’s clean. The energy is still moderate (1001). This is a good window for the experienced surfer who wants some punch without the mess.

Thursday the 16th and Friday the 17th mornings are also looking clean with light cross-off winds, holding 5 ft to 4 ft SSW swell, and those long 15-16 second intervals. The energy stays moderate (807 to 853). Consistent, clean, and user-friendly for the advanced crowd.

The standout of the whole run though? It’s a two-way tie, but I’m leaning towards Thursday the 23rd. That morning you’ve got a clean 6 ft SSW groundswell with a 15-second period and a moderate cross-off breeze from the SE. The combined energy is up at 1396 (strong). That’s a proper groundswell with good shape, and the wind is going to keep it glassy. It’s an advanced wave, but for those who know the reef, that’s the one to circle.

The other real highlight is Friday the 24th. That morning and afternoon both show clean 5 ft SSW swell, still 15 seconds, with light offshore winds (ESE). The energy is moderate (893). It’s a touch smaller than the 23rd, but with true offshore wind, the waves will be peeling nicely. Less grunt, more finesse.

After the 25th, things drop off. Sunday the 26th onward into the end of the month sees the swell fade to under 3 ft, and winds get messy or too strong. There’s a long gap of poor conditions from the 26th right through to the 29th, with only small, weak, or choppy waves. Not worth paddling out for.

Bottom line: the best windows are the morning of Thursday the 23rd for bigger, powerful surf, and Friday the 24th for cleaner, slightly smaller waves with offshore wind. The 15th through the 17th offer good, consistent backup. Don’t sleep on the 23rd.

Rusty.
