Surf Forecasts:
The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on the cards for the next couple of weeks.
Right off the bat, I’ve got to be straight with you – there’s not a single moment in the entire 16-day window where you’re going to find a wave worth paddling for at Vama Veche. The buoys are flat, the energy is zero, and the “combined energy” sits at a total of 0 - that’s a big, fat goose egg. We’re talking about a full two-week gap here with nothing to recommend. For a spot that’s already inconsistent, a blank run like this isn’t totally out of the ordinary, but it still stings a bit.
The winds are all over the place, but they’re blowing on a dead flat ocean, so it doesn’t matter. It’s clean, it’s choppy, it’s cross-shore – none of it makes a difference because there’s no swell. There’s nothing for the wind to work with. The water temp is about average for the time of year, but that’s small comfort when you’re staring at a lake.
The only real shimmer of hope is way out on Wednesday the 12th of August. The morning shows a clean, cross-offshore breeze from the north at 15 km/h. But again, the swell is a flat zero. It’s a tease. If you’re a kite surfer, this setup might start to look interesting later in the window if any wind fills in, but for a paddle surfer, it’s a no-go.
So, the honest truth? Leave the boards at home. Keep an eye on the forecasts – things can change, and it tends not to stay this dead for ever. But for now, it’s a total washout.
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.
