The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at the only spot on the table for the next 16 days – Udo Shrine.

Straight up, this is a tough run. The first week is a grinder with very little to get excited about. The water temp is sitting at a warm 84°, which is about average for this time of year, so at least you won't need a spring suit.

The first real chance of anything decent doesn't show until Wednesday the 16th of September. A couple of weeks out, we’re looking at a bit of a pick-up. The morning of the 16th has clean conditions with a light cross-offshore breeze from the SSW, and a steady 4ft swell from the ESE. The energy is moderate (271), and the period is a workable 9 seconds. The afternoon holds similar 4ft waves with that same clean cross-off wind. This is likely the best window in the entire outlook – a proper surfable day with some shape. Just keep in mind that this is a reef break and it’s inconsistent, so you’ll be sitting and waiting for the sets.

The following Saturday the 19th shows another brief glimmer in the afternoon, with a 4ft southerly swell and a clean cross-off breeze from the SSW. The energy picks up a notch (302) but the period is short at 8 seconds, which tends to make for a bumpier ride, especially on a reef.

Here's the kicker: for the vast majority of the 16-day run, the wind is a brutal cross-onshore from the north. The swell is small and weak, with energy values often under 200 and dropping to single digits. It’s mostly blown-out, lumpy, or choppy. This setup looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing for about 90% of the forecast.

So, to sum it up: the only true standout is a single day, Wednesday the 16th of September. It’s a long way off, but it’s the best bet for a clean, surfable wave at Udo Shrine.

Stay patient,
Rusty

Information about the Udo Shrine Surf forecast

The above surf forecast table for Udo Shrine provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Udo Shrine can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Udo Shrine surf forecast is unique since it includes wave energy (power) that defines the real feel of the surf rather than just the height or the period. If you surf the same spot (Udo Shrine) regularly then make a mental note of the wave energy from the surf forecast table each time you go. Very soon you may start to choose your surf days based on the wave energy alone combined with our forecast of favourable offshore wind conditions. Our star ratings will help here and of course you will also find the usual wave height and period predictions on our surf forecasts as well as a full break down of the swell components under our advanced users option (to reveal that, click the little Einstein character under the tide times).

Further information to help with frequently asked questions about our surf forecast for Udo Shrine may be found under the help tab on the top menu and also by moving your mouse over the question marks on the surf forecast table itself. Please always bear in mind that the forecast is for near-shore open water and local factors at each surf break influence the actual breaking wave height, such as the beach / reef profile, water depths offshore and shelter.
