The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you – this outlook is a tough one. The data shows that for the entire 16-day window, there’s basically nothing doing. We’ve got a wave height of just 1ft on Monday the 7th of September, but that’s coming from the SSE with a period of only 3 seconds – that’s windswell, weak and bumpy, with combined energy of just (3). It’s messy, and the wind is a cross-shore, so it’s not even a clean option. After that, it’s a flat spell. From Tuesday the 8th of September right through to Tuesday the 22nd of September, there is zero swell registered. That’s a solid two-week block of nothing.

The only break on the cards is Damp, a sandbar set-up that’s inconsistent and only really for beginners. It’s fairly exposed to the east, but the wind is mostly cross-off or offshore through this period, so the water would be glassy. But without any swell, it doesn’t matter. The water temperature is about average for the time of year. Look, if you’re a kiter, a few of those days with fresh offshore winds might be interesting, but for paddle surfing, there’s nothing to chase. Sometimes it goes quiet like this here – we just have to wait for the next system to roll in.

Rusty, signing off.

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.
