The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here, having a look at the next couple of weeks for this stretch. Honestly, I’ve got to be straight with you – it’s a long, flat spell ahead. The first few days? Nothing. Dead flat. The sea’s just not doing anything for us.
We’ve got a big gap of quiet days stretching from the start of September all the way through. The water temp is sitting at about 65°, which is a touch warmer than usual for this time of year, but that’s not much comfort when there’s no waves.
We finally see a tiny pulse on the 7th of September, Monday afternoon, at Damp (sandbar). Don’t get too excited. We’re talking a tiny 1ft swell from the southeast, with a short period of only 3 seconds. That’s weak, wobbly, and the combined energy is just a measly 2 – basically nothing. Wind is cross-shore, so it’s not total junk, but it’s not making this worth paddling out for. It’s an inconsistent spot, and this is a perfect example of why.
Then it’s back to zero for days. Spots of offshore wind, some glassy mornings later on the 13th and 14th, but still no swell to work with. The energy just isn’t there. For a spot that’s fairly exposed, this is a proper dry spell. A couple of tiny 0.3ft and 0.7ft bumps pop up late on the 11th and 16th, but with periods of 3 seconds, they’re not even worth a mention for a paddle.
Look, the whole 16-day window is a write-off for surf. There’s no standout session, no window of magic. It’s one of those quiet runs that happens here. Better to wax the longboard for a flat day paddle, or just wait for the next change in the weather. Forecasts can turn, but right now, there’s nothing to ride.
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.
