The Lowdown
Alright, I’m looking at the charts for Wabasso, and I gotta be straight with you—this stretch is looking flat as a pancake for the entire 16-day run. From Saturday the 25th of July right the way through to Sunday the 9th of August, there’s just nothing doing. Every single slot in that forecast window comes up as "poor surf conditions," and I’m not about to sugarcoat it.
You’ve got a tiny little east swell trying to show up all through, but it’s tiny—averaging between 0.7ft and 2ft, with periods hanging around 8 seconds or less. That’s weak, short-period windswill, not groundswell. Combined energy readings are almost all in the two-digit range (lowest being 5, highest hitting 163 just once on the 7th of August afternoon), so there’s barely any push behind it. The swell direction is from the east, which is fine for the break’s optimum NNE, but with no size, it doesn’t matter.
Now, water temps are sitting at 81°, which is a bit colder than normal for this time of year (that anomaly is about -3°F). Not a shocker, but you’ll notice it.
Wind-wise, there are some moments of hope. You get some offshore or glassy conditions—Tuesday morning the 28th has a gentle offshore, and by the 4th and 5th of August you even get glassy conditions with just a light air or calm. But here’s the kicker: even with clean, offshore, or glassy conditions, the swell is so small and weak that you’d be floating around out there. The break itself—a sandbar—rarely breaks anyway, and it’s not delivering this time.
If you’re desperate, the morning of the 7th of August offers the best of a bad bunch: a clean 3ft east swell, light offshore SSW wind at 6 mph, and a combined energy of 59. That’s the biggest swell in the window, but it’s still poor surf. Period is only 5 seconds, so it’s a pathetic, close-out mess on a sandbar. Honestly, with that short period and small size, it’s more of a paddle than a surf.
With the consistent "poor" call and the rare nature of the break, this blank run is pretty normal for Wabasso when there’s no distant groundswell. Forecasts can change, but right now, leave the board at home.

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.
