The Lowdown
Hey everyone, Rusty here. Let's level with you. I've been staring at the long-range, and it's a grim picture. We've got a massive gap coming up with no surf whatsoever.
For the full 16-day window, it's a desert. The only wave we ever really talk about around here is Vari. It's a beginner spot, exposed to the south, but it's inconsistent and it rarely breaks at the best of times. Well, for this whole stretch, the wave energy is absolutely zero (0 combined energy). All the reports just say "poor surf conditions," one after another. Sure, we’ll have plenty of clean, offshore wind in the mornings, especially from the north, but you can't ride the wind. There's nothing out there to catch.
We get one flash in the pan on Monday, July 27th in the morning: a tiny 0.7ft swell from the south with a short 3-second period and energy of just 1. That's not even a waist-high ripple for a grom. And then it's right back to flat.
It's a tough pill to swallow, I know. But this is one of those places that goes through these quiet spells. It's just the way it is. Forecasts can always change, but as things stand, leave the board in the garage. We'll be back when the ocean wakes up.

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.
