The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let's have a look at this.
Straight up, this is a tough one. The next couple of weeks are looking pretty grim. We’ve got a solid stretch of nothing but cross-onshore winds, strong breezes, and near-gale conditions hammering the coast. The swell window is basically shut for the first five days, with zero energy showing up. It’s a complete write-off from Monday the 10th right through until Saturday the 15th.
Finally, on Sunday the 16th, we see a tiny pulse of life. A little 0.7ft NNE swell creeps in with a period of 11 seconds, but the wind is still a fresh cross-onshore from the east. The water’s sitting at 82°F, which is pretty much bang on average for this time of year. That tiny swell sticks around in a weak, choppy state right through to Tuesday the 18th, but the wave energy is pathetic – just 12 (units) at best. It’s lumpy, messy, and not worth paddling out for.
Then we hit another dead zone. From Wednesday the 19th all the way through to Sunday the 23rd, it’s back to zero swell and howling cross-offshore winds. Just brutal.
There’s a tiny flicker of hope right at the very end of the window. On Monday the 24th, we get another 0.3ft pulse from the NE, with a period of 11 seconds. The energy is a measly 7 (units). The wind is still a fresh cross-onshore, so it’s going to be choppy and poor. By Tuesday the 25th, it’s back to nothing.
The only standout, if you can even call it that, is the morning of Monday the 24th. That’s the best you’re going to get. The swell is tiny at 0.3ft from the NE, with a period of 11 seconds. The wind is a fresh cross-onshore, which is rubbish for a clean face. It’s not a session to write home about, but it’s the only time in the whole 16 days you won’t be staring at flat, blown-out slop.
Let’s be honest, this is a week-plus of nothing. The forecast can change, but right now, it’s a tough time to be a surfer around here. For kite surfers, that constant strong cross-onshore might look interesting, but for a paddle surfer, it’s a write-off. I’d say hang the board up for a bit.
Rusty.

Information about the Urirama Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Urirama provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Urirama can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Urirama 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 (Urirama) 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 Urirama 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.
