The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s take a look at what’s coming up for our stretch of coast.
Right off the bat, we’ve got a bit of a wait on our hands. The first few days of the forecast period are looking pretty average, with no real standouts to get excited about. The swell is there, but it’s messy, and the wind just isn’t playing ball for clean surf. We’ll be biding our time until around Thursday the 10th.
The first real glimmer of hope shows up on Thursday morning, September 10th. Valdovino is looking like the spot to be. We’ve got a clean 5 ft swell rolling in from the NNW, with a 10-second period, and the wind is a light cross-offshore breeze. Combined wave energy is moderate at 485. The early session should be really tidy. Then, Thursday afternoon gets even better – the wind drops to glassy, and the swell holds at a clean 5 ft. This is the pick of the entire run. The water temp is sitting right around 65°, which is spot on average for this time of year, so just a standard spring suit.
Friday morning, September 11th, will still be surfable at Valdovino with a clean 3 ft NW swell, but the energy is a lot weaker at 161. It’s a wind-down from the day before.
We then hit a bit of a dry spell. From later Friday through the weekend, the wind picks up again, and the swell gets mixed up and choppy. It’s not going to be worth paddling out unless you’re desperate.
Monday morning, September 14th, offers a small window of clean surf again. A 4 ft swell from the NW with a 10-second period, and a light cross-offshore breeze. The energy is moderate at 303. It’s not a world-beater, but it’s a clean little wave after the weekend’s rubbish.
After that, we’re looking at a long stretch of poor conditions. From Tuesday the 15th right through to the end of the run on the 21st, the northeast winds are strong and persistent, making a mess of things. The swell is there, but it’s lumpy and cross-shore chop everywhere. The only real highlight in that second week is a brief moment on Monday, September 21st morning, where we get a clean 6 ft NW swell. The wind is clean, but the wave energy is moderate at 522, and given the long run of poor forecasts, it’s a long-shot call.
So, the true standout is Thursday, September 10th. That’s your day. Get the glassy afternoon session if you can. The rest of the run is a waiting game.
Rusty.

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