The Lowdown

Alright, folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you. The next couple of weeks are looking flat and mushy for Wabasso. There’s a real dry spell on the horizon, so don’t get your hopes up for any heroics.

For the first week, we're looking at tiny, weak waves. We're talking ankle to knee-high slop, with the swell direction flipping from NE to E. The energy is just not there – we're seeing values in the 20s and 30s, which is super weak. The winds are mostly cross or cross-on, so it’ll be a bit bumpy on top of the lack of size. There’s a slight clean-up on the Friday morning with a light cross-off breeze, but with waves at only 1ft, it’s barely worth the walk down the beach.

The weekend and into the start of next week don't offer much change. The swell stays non-existent, the period is short, and the winds stay onshore. It’s a classic case of the ocean just taking a break. The water temp at the start of the period is 83°F, which is right about normal for this time of year. No surprises there.

Now, looking further out, into the second week, there’s a hint of something, but it’s nothing to get excited about. Around the 23rd of September, we see the wind finally swing offshore (W to WNW) and the energy ticks up a touch to 30-37, but the swell is still under 3ft. It will be clean and glassy, but it’s going to be small, gutless surf. This is a sandbar set-up that only breaks rarely, so it needs a lot more push than this to get going.

Honestly, this is a blank run. There are no waves to speak of for the entire 16-day outlook. A spot like this needs a solid push of swell, and we just aren't seeing it. With the swell so tiny and the winds mostly cross, if you’ve got a kite, you might be better off with that than a surfboard for the foreseeable future.

The long-range promise of cleaner conditions on the 23rd is something, but it’s far out and the size just isn't there. Keep the board in the car, but keep your expectations low.

Rusty.

Information about the Wabasso Surf forecast

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