The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s talk about what’s on offer for the next couple of weeks.
First up, we’re looking at a pretty bleak run for a while. The surf is going to be messy and mostly not worth paddling out for. The water temperature at Waiehu beach park is sitting at 80°, which is pretty much bang on average for this time of year, so no surprises there.
The one real standout in this whole 16-day window is Tuesday, the 8th of September. We’ve got a window of clean, fun waves. The morning starts with a solid 6ft swell from the ENE with an 11-second period, and the wind is going offshore from the south – that’s a big deal. The combined energy of all swells is moderate (883). This is a reef and point setup, so that longer period will wrap in nicely. It’s a consistent break, so you can expect some decent sets. But heads up, crowds are often here, so you won’t be alone.
Then Tuesday afternoon gets even better. The wind goes glassy – completely flat – and the swell drops a touch to 5ft from the east with a 10-second period. The wave energy is still moderate (658). This is your best bet for the whole period. Clean, smooth, and some fun little waves for the beginner-friendly crowd.
Everything else is a write-off. From now until Tuesday morning, it’s cross-on winds and choppy, poor conditions. After Tuesday, from Wednesday the 9th all the way through to the end of the forecast on the 21st of September, it’s a long stretch of poor surf. The wind is mostly cross-on or onshore, the swell is small, short-period, and the energy is weak. The breaks are going to be bumpy and messy. For a spot that’s usually consistent, this is a real dry spell. Forecasts can change, but right now, you’ve got that one Tuesday window, and that’s your only shot.
Rusty.
