The Lowdown
Alright, let me level with you. The surf at Damp is proper dead right now. For a good week and a half, we are looking at flat, clean, empty water. The temp is 66°, which is about normal for this time of year. You could almost water-ski on it. It's a tough pill to swallow.
The first real tease comes on Friday the 14th with a tiny 1ft dribble. It's a crumbly cross-shore mess, nothing to get excited about. All the way through to the 23rd, it’s nothing but flatness. Some offshores, some glassy mornings, but absolutely zero swell behind any of it. You’re just staring at a lake. Not even a hint of a ripple.
Then, on Monday the 24th, there’s a glimmer. A small pulse from the east gives us a 2ft wave in the morning, with a weak energy reading of 16. It’s quick and crumbly. Later that afternoon, it improves slightly to around 3ft, but the energy value only climbs to 21. Still, the wind gets clean and offshore, which is the one positive. If you’re totally jonesing, this is your only shot. It’s not going to be good, but it will be surfable.
And then... that’s it. The month limps to a close with a couple of even smaller, junky windswells. Honestly, this is about as barren as it gets. The ocean has just switched off. We’ll have to wait for a change in the forecast and hope something, anything, shows up.

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.
