The Lowdown

Hey, Rusty again. Let’s break it down for the imperial crew.

For Damp, the forecast is rough. A whole lot of nothing for the first week and a half. The water is running at 64°F, a bit warmer than normal for the season, but that’s the only interesting bit.

From Friday 11 September through Tuesday 15 September, it’s dead flat. Zero swell. You could have the cleanest offshore breeze in the morning, but there’s nothing to surf.

Wednesday 16 September shows a tiny 1ft swell from the SE, period of 4 seconds. Energy is only 4 (weak). It’s cross-shore wind too, so it’ll be choppy and messy. Not worth the wetsuit.

Thursday 17 September through Friday 25 September is flat again. Some strong offshore winds pop up, strong enough to make paddling out a chore, but with no swell, it’s just a workout with no reward. A couple of days show 0.3ft to 1ft of slop, but periods of 3 to 5 seconds and energy at 1 or 2? Forget it.

Saturday 26 September is the best we’ve got. A 2ft SE swell, period of 4 seconds, energy hits 15 (still weak). The wind is cross-off from the WNW, so it’ll be clean enough. But that short period means those waves are going to be fat, slow, and unexciting. Damp is a sandbar, inconsistent, and best for beginners. If you’re learning, you might find a few ankle-biters Saturday morning, but that’s the most optimistic I can be.

Overall, the only surfable moment in the whole 16-day window is that Saturday 26 September morning, and it’s marginal at best. A long dry spell like this is normal for the area sometimes. Fingers crossed the forecasts shift, but for now, it’s a waiting game.

Rusty.

Information about the Damp Surf forecast

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