The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here again. Let’s talk about Vari for the next 16 days.
First thing you’ll notice is the water – it’s 80°, which is about 4° warmer than it should be for this time of year. That’s not just a little off; it’s seriously warm, like swimming in a bath.
But here’s the kicker: from Friday 31 July all the way to Saturday 15 August, there’s absolutely no swell. Zero. The combined energy reads 0 every single day. The wind is mostly blowing hard from the north and north-northeast, with strong breezes and near gale-force gusts, so even if there was a ripple, it’d be a mess. For a break that’s exposed to the south and rarely breaks anyway, this is a total flat spell.
Vari is an inconsistent beginner spot, so a long run like this isn’t unheard of around here. But with the wind howling and no waves, it’s more of a kiteboarding scene than a surfing one.
The only bright spot is Saturday 8 August afternoon when the wind goes glassy – dead calm. But with zero swell, it’s just a flat, mirror-like ocean. Not a wave to be had.
So, no recommendations. The whole 16 days is a blank. It’s a bummer, but sometimes that’s the way it goes. Keep an eye on the forecast, but for now, leave the boards at home.
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.
