The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let's talk about what's on the menu for the next 16 days.
Honestly, the outlook is a grim one for a while. The combined energy of all swells directed here is a flat zero (0) for the first two weeks. We’re looking at a solid 15-day stretch with absolutely no surf on offer. The conditions are clean with offshore winds most mornings, but with zero swell, it's just a flat, glassy lake out there. The only break on the radar is Vari, which is a beginner spot that's inconsistent, and it's not going to see a single wave during that period.
The big news is that we finally get a pulse of life on Monday the 17th of August. The morning brings a tiny 1 ft swell from the South, but it's a short-period, 3-second windswell, so it won't have much push. The combined energy is still pitifully low at just 1, so don't expect any real power. The wind is light offshore from the North, so it will be clean, but the waves will be small and weak. Vari is too inconsistent to get excited about, and this tiny bump is barely enough for a beginner to play on a foamie. It's not a standout, just the only thing happening after a long drought.

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.
