The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on the cards for the next couple of weeks.
Well, I’m gonna be straight with you — this is a tough one. The entire 16-day window is looking flat. We’re talking zero swell energy coming through for Vari, with the combined energy of all swells directed here sitting at a big fat zero (0). There’s just nothing in the water.
The first surf recommendation doesn’t even show up. From now all the way through to Monday the 21st of September, it’s a total blank. No surf to speak of. The conditions are often clean, with some glassy mornings and offshore winds, but without any swell, it’s just a pretty lake. The water temp is about average for the time of year, but that’s cold comfort when there’s no waves.
Vari is an exposed spot that needs a south swell, but it’s inconsistent and only for beginners when it does work. Right now, it’s not working at all. If you’re desperate for a paddle, you might get a float on a board, but there’s nothing to ride.
Honestly, if you’re a kite surfer, the strong afternoon north-northeast winds on the 15th, 19th, and 20th might be more interesting than what we’ve got for surf. For the rest of us, it’s a waiting game. Forecasts can change, but for now, this stretch looks like a write-off.
Stay tuned, and maybe go for a fish.
Rusty.

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