Whispering Waves Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on the table for the next couple of weeks.

The only game in town is Whispering Waves. It’s a point break, so it’s built for handling swell, but it’s inconsistent, so you’ve got to be patient. The water temp is sitting right around 68°, which is bang on average for this time of year, so no surprises there.

The first real chance of a wave doesn’t come until Thursday afternoon, September 10th. It’s small, only 2ft from the SW with a long 16-second period, and the wind is offshore. The energy is weak though, just 140 (moderate), so it’s more of a longboard cruiser than anything to get excited about.

Friday the 11th is a write-off with cross-on wind and weak, messy energy. Saturday the 12th is a no-go – strong onshore wind and short period windswell making a mess of things.

But hold onto your board, because Sunday September 13th is the standout. The morning brings a glassy 8ft wave from the E with a period of 9 seconds. The combined energy is strong at 1777 (high energy). This is excellent for experienced surfers – it’s big, clean, and glassy. That’s the call of the week. The afternoon drops off a bit with strong offshore wind, but the morning is the one.

Monday September 14th is still very good, with clean 3ft to 4ft SSW swell and light offshore to cross-off winds. Nice, clean lines.

The middle of the week, Tuesday the 15th and Wednesday the 16th morning, are flat or poor. But Wednesday the 16th afternoon comes back to life with a 4ft, 16-second SW groundswell and clean conditions. Energy is moderate at 889.

Thursday September 17th picks up again with a solid 7ft SSW swell in the morning, and the afternoon gets a clean 7ft S swell with offshore wind. Good energy on offer.

Friday September 18th is another big day for experts – 8ft SSE swell in the morning, clean, with strong energy at 1192. The afternoon holds the same size but the wind shifts cross-off.

Saturday September 19th morning is a big one – 12ft from the E, but it’s blowing a fresh offshore wind. That’s a lot of water moving, and with a 9-second period, it’s going to be a handful. Only for the brave. The afternoon drops off completely.

The weekend of September 20th is a dud. Sunday September 21st morning brings it back to life with a solid 7ft SSW swell and offshore wind, clean, with good energy. The afternoon is even better – 7ft from the S, clean, and excellent for experienced surfers with energy at 1184.

So, the best of the best is Sunday September 13th morning – glassy, clean, and solid. Friday the 18th and Sunday the 21st afternoons are also top-tier for the experienced crew.

Rusty out.
