The Lowdown
Alright, I’ve been through the charts for Vari, and I’m not going to sugarcoat it – it’s a rough outlook. The finder is showing zero wave energy for the whole 16-day run, with every session listed as “poor surf conditions.” The combined energy of all swells directed here is a flat 0 (0). That’s a long, empty stretch of days.
We kick off on Wednesday the 29th of July, and there’s nothing to even look at. The water temp is 79°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, but that’s the only good news. The wind is going to be screaming out of the north, strong breeze to near gale force for the first few days, making it a total mess even if a wave showed up. By Monday the 3rd of August, the wind finally dies, going glassy on the Monday afternoon, but with zero swell, it’s just a flat, glassy pond.
The whole 16 days is a complete washout. For a spot like Vari, which is already inconsistent, a stretch like this is more normal than you’d like. It’s a beginner wave when it’s working, but right now there’s nothing. Honestly, with the strong cross-off winds and no surf, this spot looks more like a kite surfer’s playground than a surfer’s. Keep the fins out of the car, and check back in a few days – it usually doesn’t stay this flat for long.

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.
