The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you – this is a tough one. The finder is throwing up a blank for the next 16 days at Woodlands Beach, so I’ll give you the honest truth from the charts.
We’re looking at a long, dry spell. From now right through to the 20th of September, there’s basically nothing doing. The combined wave energy is tiny – mostly a weak 2 to 61 (moderate energy at best) – and the swell heights are stuck between 0.3 ft and 2 ft. That’s not enough to get a paddle board moving, let alone a surfboard. The wind is offshore from the east or east-southeast almost every day, which is clean, but with no swell to work with, it’s a waste of a good breeze.
The water temperature at Woodlands Beach is hanging around 84°F, with a tiny anomaly of 0.7°F, so it’s bang on average for this time of year – warm, but not helping the waves.
There’s a brief flicker on the 20th of September, Sunday afternoon. The finder finally calls it “surfable waves but very ordinary conditions” – a 1 out of 10. Swell hits 2 ft from the north, with a period of 10 seconds, and the combined energy climbs to 55 (moderate). The wind goes light offshore from the east-southeast at 12 mph. That’s the only window in the whole 16 days, and it’s still poor. For a spot that’s described as “inconsistent,” this is a normal blank run. It’s not going to stay this way forever – forecasts can change – but right now, there’s nothing to get excited about.
If you’re desperate, that Sunday afternoon might give you a knee-high dribble, but don’t hold your breath. For the rest of us, it’s time to check the forecast again in a few days.
Rusty.

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