The Lowdown
Hey, Rusty here, and I gotta level with you—looking at the charts for the next couple weeks, it's a total bust. From August 10th through to August 25th, there's absolutely nothing on the horizon. Zero wave energy (0 combined energy) every single day. The water's running a touch warmer than average at 79°, but that's the only thing worth mentioning.
We're staring down a complete dry spell from Monday, August 10, all the way to Tuesday, August 25. That's two full weeks with no surf to speak of. The winds are mostly offshore or cross-offside, which would be a dream if there were any waves, but they're just wasting their breath.
The only break in the guide is Vari, a beginner spot that's inconsistent and rarely breaks, with an exposure to the south and an optimum swell direction from the south. But even that's a ghost town—no swell height, no period, no energy.
For a place like this, a stretch this flat is more normal than you'd like. It's a tough run, but things can change quick—forecasts are fickle, and it doesn't usually stay this dead for long. If you're itching to get wet, the morning of August 25 is glassy and calm, but without a single wave to ride. Honestly, it's more of a kiteboarding setup if the breeze picks up, but with no swell, even that's a no-go.
Stay patient, and I'll be back when there's something worth shouting about.

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.
