The Lowdown
Alright crew, Rusty here with the grim news. This 16-day run is a total flat spell. I’ve checked every day, and there’s just nothing worth paddling out for.
We kick off on Friday the 14th with a pathetic 0.7ft bump from the ESE/SE, with a period of 3 seconds and combined energy of 1. That’s not a wave, it’s a ripple. The wind is cross or cross-onshore, making it choppy and ugly. Don’t even think about it.
Then we hit a massive dead zone. From Saturday the 15th all the way through Thursday the 27th, there’s zero surf height. Thirteen days of nothing. The wind is often offshore and clean during that stretch, which is just salt in the wound—perfect glass, but no swell to ride.
Finally, on Friday the 28th of August, we get a tiny 3ft pulse from the SE, with a period of 4 seconds and combined energy of 20. Still weak. The morning is glassy, which is a treat, but the swell is too small and short-period to hold a decent shape. By afternoon, the wind turns cross-onshore and messes it up.
The 29th is more of the same—small, weak, and onshore. No standouts, no hidden spots, no waves. This is one of those flat stretches that just kills the stoke. Forecasts can change, but for now, you’re not missing a thing.
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.
