The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s talk about what’s coming up for Camaron Beach.
Right from the start, the outlook is pretty bleak. We’re looking at a long stretch of small, messy surf. From the 14th right through to the morning of the 23rd of August, there’s nothing worth paddling out for. The swell is tiny – under 3ft most days – and the wind is almost always cross-onshore or onshore, making it choppy and bumpy. The water’s warm, sitting at about 89°F, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year (4°F anomaly), so that’s one nice thing if you’re just sitting in the lineup, but the waves are poor. Wave energy is mostly weak to moderate.
Now, here’s where it gets interesting. The morning of Sunday, the 23rd of August, is the one true standout. We’ve got a solid 7ft groundswell pushing in from the SSW, with a 14-second period. That’s got some serious power behind it – the combined energy is strong. The wind is a light cross-offshore from the north at just 3 mph, so it’s going to be clean. This is a point break, and with the swell direction from the SSW matching up nicely with the optimum SW direction, the setup should be really good. It’s a bit big for beginners at over 7ft, so this is for the experienced crew. Expect some proper waves, but know that the long period means sets will be spaced out, which will help with the paddle out.
The afternoon of the 23rd sees that wind swing onshore, so get on it early. The next few days, the 24th and 25th of August, still have some decent size at 6ft to 7ft from the SSW, but the wind is mostly onshore or cross-onshore, so the quality drops off. The energy is still there, but it’s going to be lumpy.
After that, it fades back to small and weak from the 26th onwards. The afternoon of the 29th of August looks interesting with a 3ft SSW groundswell, 16-second period, and glassy conditions. That could be a sneaky clean session with moderate energy, but it’s a long way off, so keep an eye on it.
So, the bottom line: the big winner is the morning of Sunday, the 23rd of August. That’s the one to mark on your calendar. The rest is a frustrating wait.
Stay stoked,
Rusty

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