The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you – this is a rough one.

Looking at the whole 16-day window, we’ve got a big, fat zero for surf. Not a single decent wave on the cards. The combined energy of all swells directed here is a flat 0 for most of it, and even the tiny bumps we see on the 7th and 18th of September are weak, with energy at just 2. It’s a long, quiet stretch.

Right off the bat, from this Friday morning, the 4th of September, through to the 6th, there’s absolutely no swell. Just clean, offshore wind at Damp (sandbar), but with nothing to ride. That’s a pattern that continues. We’ve got a solid week of nothing, with a couple of micro bumps on Monday the 7th of September offering a tiny 1ft SE swell with a period of only 3 seconds – that’s just wind bump, not worth paddling for. The water temp is sitting at 64°, which is about average for the time of year, so at least you won’t freeze waiting.

Things stay flat through the 8th to the 17th of September. Plenty of offshore winds, which would be a dream if there were any waves, but there aren't. By the 18th of September, Friday morning, another tiny 1.0ft pulse from the North shows up, but with a weak period of 4 seconds. The 19th of September sees glassy conditions at dawn but still nothing to surf.

For the beginner, it’s not even a question – stay on the beach. For the experts, there’s nothing here that’ll get the heart racing. This is one of those blank runs where the forecast can only get better. It tends not to stay this poor for long around here.

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.
