The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here again. Let’s call it like it is: this stretch for Damp is a total bust. Over the next 16 days, there’s just no decent surf to be had. The whole period is a dud for paddle surfing.
It starts out rough on Wednesday the 26th of August. A tiny 0.7m easterly swell with a 4-second period gets hammered by a 30 km/h onshore wind. The combined energy is a weak 14, so there’s no push. Thursday and Friday are the same story—small, choppy, and ugly. Then from Saturday the 29th, the swell disappears completely. From that Saturday morning all the way through to Tuesday the 8th of September, it’s flat. That’s more than a week of nothing. The wind does go offshore a few times, especially around the 2nd and 3rd of September, but there’s no wave to clean up. The water sits at 64°, which is pretty average for the season.
The only hint of anything comes on the 9th of September, with a 0.6m north-northeast swell, still a 4-second windswell and only 11 units of energy. The wind is cross-offshore, so it’d be clean, but there’s just no power in it. The 10th is even smaller before it goes flat again.
Damp is an inconsistent sandbar, and this kind of long flat spell is normal for the area. It’s a beginner-friendly spot, but right now there’s nothing to ride. If you’re itching for a session, keep watching the forecasts—they can change—but for now, the board stays on the rack.

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.
