The Lowdown
G’day, Rusty here. Look, I’ve gotta be straight with you – we’re looking at a tough stretch ahead. For Wabasso, a sandbar set-up that rarely breaks, there’s not a single decent surf window in this 16-day forecast. Everything is flagged as poor surf conditions, so there’s no standout session to chase. The whole run is a blank, which unfortunately isn’t unusual for a spot this fickle.
The water temp is sitting at 83°, which is about average for this time of year – nothing weird there. But the swell story is grim. We start off with tiny 1ft Easterly swell at 8 seconds (17 weak energy), and it doesn’t get much better. A little bump comes through Friday morning the 24th with 3ft at 8 seconds (81 moderate energy), but it’s got gentle cross-onshore wind, so it’s choppy and messy. Saturday the 25th morning offers glassy conditions with 2ft, but the energy is still weak (58) and the waves are poor quality.
We get a few clean windows under offshore winds during the following week – like Monday morning the 27th with 1ft Easterly swell (22 weak energy) and clean conditions – but the size is just ankle-snappers. Later in the period, around Friday morning the 7th of August, we see the biggest swell of the forecast at 4ft from the East with 6-second period (135 moderate energy), but it’s choppy with cross-onshore winds. Not worth paddling out for.
Honestly, I’d leave the board in the car and go do something else. When it’s this flat for this long, you just have to wait for the next change. Stay tuned, but don’t hold your breath.

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.
