The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here, and I'm calling it like I see it.
We're looking at a full 16-day forecast for the Damp sandbar, and it's a rough one. We've got a massive dry spell from now, stretching all the way to the second week of September before anything shows up. That's almost two weeks of nothing. The first sign of life is expected on the morning of Saturday the 12th of September.
Water temp is sitting around 18°, pretty standard for the season.
Now, come that Saturday morning, we finally see something. A tiny swell from the ESE, pushing 2ft with a short period of 4 seconds. The combined energy is barely a whisper (16). Not exactly making waves. The wind is a moderate SSW cross-off, which is decent, but with waves that small and period that short, it's still listed as poor surf.
This spot is inconsistent, so a long flat spell is unfortunately normal for the area. The setup looks more suited for kite surfing than for paddle surfing if anything. There are no gems to highlight, no best on offer. Just a lot of waiting. Forecasts can flip, but right now, keep your board in the garage.
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.
