The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s get real about the next couple of weeks for this region.
Right off the bat, I gotta be straight with you – it’s a ghost town out there. The entire 16-day stretch is a flat spell. We’re talking zero combined swell energy (0) across the whole forecast. That’s a long, dry run from now all the way through to Tuesday, August 18th. No surf to chase, no waves to ride.
The only spot we have on the radar is Vari. It’s a beginner break, but it’s inconsistent and needs a south swell to work. Problem is, there isn’t a single south swell in the window. The wind looks clean and mostly offshore or cross-offshore every day, which is a tease – perfect conditions for good surf, but there’s nothing to surf. Water temp is about average for this time of year.
Forget about standouts. There are none. This is one of those stretches where the ocean just goes to sleep. For kite surfers, the steady northerly breeze and flat water might be more interesting than it is for us paddle surfers. All we can do is wait for the forecasts to change. Hang in there.

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.
