The Lowdown
Righto, surfers, Rusty here. Let’s have a look what’s on the cards for Villa Bonita.
We’re kicking off this Thursday morning, August 27th, with a sweet little pulse of groundswell. It’s not massive, coming in at 2ft from the SW, but the period is a juicy 18 seconds. That’s proper long-period energy, which will wrap in nicely here. The wind is glassy, dead calm out of the NW, and the water is sitting at 88°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year. The combined swell energy is moderate at 593, so there’s some push behind it. It’s a great way to start – clean, fun little waves.
The real standout, though, is the Saturday morning session on August 29th. Swell bumps up to 6ft from the SSW with a 16-second period, giving you a really solid combo (combined energy of 1714). The wind is glassy again from the NNE – absolute perfection. This is the pick of the 16-day window. That size is getting a bit too much for beginners, but for any keen intermediate surfer looking for a proper session, this is your window.
Looking at the following weekend, a standout on Saturday morning, September 4th, sees a similar offering: 6ft from the SSW, 17-second period, glassy NNE winds. The combined energy hits 1830, which is strong. Another excellent morning for experienced surfers.
There’s a good run of clean mornings throughout the second week, particularly on Wednesday September 9th with 5ft from the SW in glassy conditions, and Thursday September 10th with a light offshore breeze. These are solid, but none quite touch the heights of that first Saturday. Expect plenty of trade-off afternoons with cross-onshore winds and worsening conditions, so definitely get out early.
Crowds at Villa Bonita are possible, so getting in the water for those early glass-offs will be key.
Rusty.

Information about the Villa Bonita Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Villa Bonita provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Villa Bonita can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Villa Bonita 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 (Villa Bonita) 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 Villa Bonita 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.
