The Lowdown
Alright, I'll be real with you. The next two weeks are looking about as flat as a pancake for Woodlands Beach. We've got a 16-day window, and there's just nothing to write home about. No standouts, no real swell, so throw the longboard back in the shed.
It kicks off on Friday the 11th of September with a tiny 1 ft wave from the north, and that short period doesn't help. The wave energy is weak (22). A fresh cross-offshore breeze from the east at 19 mph keeps things looking clean, but it's all show and no go. The water temp is about average at 85°. Saturday the 12th and Sunday the 13th are the same song—1 ft or less, mostly clean but lifeless. The energy stays in the double digits, just barely.
Monday the 14th sees a 1 ft north-northeast swell with a moderate offshore breeze in the morning, but the energy is still weak (27). The wind stays fresh for most of the week, but the swell never picks up. The best we get is on Saturday the 19th of September, when a 1 ft north-northwest swell gives us a combined energy of 43 – still weak, but the peak of the whole run. Winds stay cross-offshore, so the surface is tidy, but you are fighting for nothing.
There's a long gap of very small surf from the 15th right through to the 26th of September. Wave heights stay between 0.3 ft and 1 ft. The wave energy is mostly in the single digits or low teens, telling you how weak it all is. Even the offshore breezes on the 17th, 18th, and 19th of September can't make anything of it.
Towards the end, on the 24th to the 26th of September, we get a little more north-northwest swell with periods around 8 to 10 seconds, but heights are still just 1 ft to 1 ft. Energy stays low (26 to 34). It's just stubbornly flat.
Woodlands Beach is known for being inconsistent, so a run of flat days like this is normal for the area. If you absolutely have to get wet, the cleanest windows are the mornings with offshore breezes, like the 14th, 19th, or 25th of September, but keep your expectations right down in the dirt. It's a waiting game.

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.
