Surf Forecasts:
The Lowdown
Alright, folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you – the next 16 days are looking like a total flat spell for Vama Veche. The forecast is as bare as a beach in winter. No swell, no waves, nothing to ride. It’s a long stretch of nothing.
Starting from Monday, 7th September, right through to the morning of Sunday, 20th September, there’s just zero surf. The wind is mostly cross or cross-on, with a few glassy moments on Tuesday morning, 8th September, and again on Monday morning, 21st September – but it doesn’t matter because there’s no swell to even think about. The water’s calm, but it’s a cruel calm.
The single break on the radar is Vama Veche itself. It’s an exposed, east-facing spot, set up for beginner-level fun when it works, but it’s inconsistent at the best of times. The optimum swell direction is east, but there’s nothing coming from anywhere. The combined energy of all swells directed here is sitting at (0) – flat as a pancake. There’s no wave height, no period, nothing to report. The water temperature’s not given, but without waves, it hardly matters.
For the whole 16-day window, there’s not a single standout. Not one. The only thing worth noting is that early on Tuesday morning, 8th September, the wind goes glassy, and later on Monday, 21st September morning, it’s glassy again – but with zero swell, it’s just a pretty lake. No surf to be had.
Hang in there, folks. This is a blank run, but it’s the kind of thing that happens here. Forecasts change, and it won’t stay this way forever.
Rusty.

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