The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s take a look at what’s on the menu at Udo Shrine over the next couple of weeks.

Right off the bat, I gotta be straight with you: the next week and more is a tough stretch. We’re looking at a long, dry gap with no real surf recommendations until we get into the back half of the forecast. The first couple of days have some small swell but it’s just not coming together. Monday the 14th is a write-off with a thunderstorm risk and a messy 4ft cross-shore chop. Not worth wetting a suit.

Now, Tuesday the 15th is actually our one bright spot early on. Tuesday morning at Udo Shrine (Miyazaki) is the standout of the whole outlook. You’ve got a glassy sea, zero wind, and a clean 5ft swell rolling in from the ESE with a period of 10 seconds. The combined energy is moderate at 460, and the water is a warm 82°, which is dead average for this time of year. The afternoon holds up too, with light offshore wind cleaning up the same 5ft ESE swell. That’s the best we’re gonna get, so if you’re keen, that Tuesday morning session is your window.

After that, it’s a long haul of poor conditions through the rest of September. By Wednesday the 16th, the wind shifts onshore and the quality drops right off. Swell sticks around but it’s junky. From Thursday the 17th through the weekend of the 21st, we actually see some serious swell building – we’re talking 15ft to 23ft by Monday the 21st with combined energy readings going through the roof (9884, 12030, even 40286). That’s strong to very strong energy. But it’s all accompanied by a near gale cross-onshore wind. That’s not paddle surfing, that’s kite territory. And the swell is just too big for the break anyway, so it’s a pass for us.

The only other flicker of hope comes on Tuesday the 22nd with a 13ft swell from the east and a cross-offshore wind, making it clean. But the score says it’s marginal – questionable tides and the swell is still huge – so only experts should even look at it. After that, the energy fades to almost nothing for the final days of September and into the 29th. We’re down to 1ft to 2ft with onshore winds and no power. A total flat spell.

So to sum it up: there’s one good day on Tuesday the 15th with clean, glassy chest-high waves. If you miss that, the rest is blown-out giants or flat calm. For the area, a long quiet run like this is pretty normal when the trade winds set in. Forecasts can change, but for now, that Tuesday is the only one worth circling on the calendar.

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.
