The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s cooking for Woodlands Beach over the next couple of weeks.
Straight up, it’s a rough start. We’re looking at a solid stretch of flat to tiny, mostly messy conditions that aren’t worth paddling out for. For the first week and a half, from now through to around the 22nd of September, you’ll be staring at tiny 0.3ft to 1ft slop, mostly with a fresh breeze out of the east or southeast. The combined swell energy is way down in the weak zone (single and low double digits), so it’s not doing anything. The offshore winds on some mornings will make the surface look pretty, but with that little push, it’s a total bust for surfing.
There’s a long gap with no real surf on offer until we get to the 23rd of September. That Wednesday afternoon, things finally change. We get a little spike: a 2ft wave from the ENE with a period of 8 seconds. The wind goes glassy, coming from the SSE at just 3 mph. It’s not big, but for the first time in ages, the combined swell energy hits 73 – still weak, but it’s something. The water temp is about average for this time of year, so no need for a thick suit just yet. This is a beginner-friendly size, but remember, this spot is *inconsistent* and it *rarely breaks*, so you’ve got to be on it when it does. There might be a few others with the same idea (crowds are *sometimes* an issue here).
The real standout, the one to circle on your calendar, is Saturday the 26th of September. Both the morning and afternoon sessions are where it’s at. We’ve got 3ft of swell, coming from the N and NNE, with a period of 12 seconds. That’s a proper groundswell, meaning more energy and better-shaped waves. The combined swell energy jumps to 220 and 239, which is moderate energy – a real step up. The wind is offshore from the E and SE, keeping things clean. It’s still a manageable size for intermediates, but that longer period will make it a bit more powerful, so be aware. For a break that’s this inconsistent, this is a rare opportunity to get a decent wave.
The morning of the 25th is worth a mention too, with 1ft and a 11-second period, but it’s just ordinary. The 27th and 28th drop back off again into poor to ordinary conditions.
So, to sum it up: forget the first 10 days. The 23rd is a tiny, glassy chance for a splash, but the 26th of September is your best bet. Get on it.

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.
