Trespassers Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright folks, it’s Rusty here. Let’s talk about what’s happening at Trespassers over the next couple of weeks.

We’ve got a bit of a rough start, but there’s some real quality waiting for us if we’re patient. The early days are a write-off with strong westerly winds and messy, blown-out conditions. Saturday the 5th is a total no-go with 28 mph winds ruining the 8 ft SW swell. Sunday the 6th is still marginal, with a bit of cross-shore wind and a 6 ft to 5 ft SW groundswell that’s got a nice 14-second period, but the wind angle keeps it from being clean.

The real turning point comes Monday morning the 7th. The wind swings light offshore from the ESE, and the water goes glassy. The swell drops to 3 ft from the SW with a 13-second period – it’s small, but those conditions are going to be pure joy. The combined energy is weak (327), but those clean, groomed lines will make it feel like twice the size. This is a solid window for a longboard or a fun fish.

The standout of the whole period is Tuesday morning the 8th. We’ve got a 5 ft SSW swell pumping in with a super-long 17-second period. The wind is light cross-offshore from the SE, and the water is clean. The combined energy is moderate to strong (1352). This is a classic Trespassers session – the long period groundswell will wrap beautifully around this reef point, offering some powerful, walled-up waves. This is for advanced surfers only, as the sets will have some real punch. The water temperature is about average for this time of year. Expect crowds are possible here.

The quality continues through the rest of the week. Wednesday and Thursday the 9th and 10th see a building swell with 6 ft to 8 ft SSW groundswell, but the wind gets a bit stronger, keeping it in the "good but not epic" category. Thursday afternoon shapes up nicely with a clean 6 ft SSW swell and offshore ESE winds. The combined energy is strong (1705). The week ends on a high note with clean, offshore winds and 4 ft SSW swell on Friday the 11th and Saturday the 12th.

After Saturday the 12th, the swell fades fast. Sunday the 13th is clean but small, and from Monday the 14th onward, it’s a long stretch of tiny, weak surf and often poor conditions. The wind stays onshore or cross-off, but the energy is just gone. There’s a big gap of several days with no real recommendations, so don’t hold your breath for the second week.

This is Rusty, signing off.
