The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s get straight into it.
First up, I’ve gotta be honest with you – the next couple of weeks are looking pretty grim for Woodlands Beach. We’re starting off with a real flat spell. From Saturday, August 8th, all the way through to Saturday, August 15th, there’s just nothing doing. The swell is tiny, barely a ripple, with heights scraping in at 0.3ft to 1ft. The wind is fresh and offshore or cross-off most days, which is a tease because the water would be clean, but there’s no wave to surf. It’s a long stretch of quiet.
Then, out of nowhere, things get a little interesting. On Sunday, August 16th, we get a pulse of ENE swell. It jumps to 7ft in the morning, pushing 8ft in the afternoon. That’s a solid size, and the combined energy is strong, hitting 670 in the morning and 1159 in the afternoon – that’s serious juice. The period is only 8-9 seconds though, so it’s a short-period wind swell, a bit lumpy and less refined. The wind is cross-off from the ENE, so it’ll be clean but a bit bumpy. This is big surf, over 8ft in the afternoon, so it’s strictly for experienced surfers only. Beginners, stay on the sand. This is the standout window, but it’s a one-day wonder.
After that, it’s back to the doldrums. From Monday, August 17th, right through to Sunday, August 23rd, we’re looking at predominantly 0.3ft to 1ft surf again. The wind stays offshore or glassy at times, especially on Tuesday, August 18th afternoon when it’s dead glassy, but there’s nothing to ride. The water temp is around 84°F, which is about normal for this time of year, so no surprises there.
So, the bottom line: Woodlands Beach is a bust for the most part. The only real shot is that Sunday, August 16th, but it’s big, short-period, and requires serious chops. The rest is a flat, clean, empty ocean. It’s a tough run, but that’s how it goes sometimes. Keep an eye on the charts, because it can’t stay this flat forever.
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.
