The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's cookin' for ADs/Doubles and the surrounding area over the next couple weeks. I won't sugarcoat it – this stretch is a tough one. We've got a lot of wind and not much in the way of good, clean surf for a long while.
First up, this spot is fairly consistent and exposed to swell, which normally would be a good thing. But the problem is that ENE wind is blowing almost constantly – cross-shore, cross-onshore, it's all messy. The combined swell energy is mostly moderate to strong, especially later on, but with that wind it just doesn't matter. It creates a lumpy cross-chop that ruins the wave face. So for the first week and a half, it's a write-off.
We’re looking at a gap from now right through until around July 25th with nothing rideable unless you're a fan of whitewash. The water temp is about average for this time of year, so no surprises there.
Now, around Saturday July 25th morning we start to see a glimmer. The swell is still a bit raw from the ENE at 7 ft with a 8-second period, but the combined energy is still hefty. It's still marginal though – that cross-shore wind is a killer.
The pick of the entire 16-day window looks to be on Monday July 29th in the morning. We get a 6 ft ENE swell with a 12-second period, so there's some decent groundswell there. The combined energy is strong, and while the wind is still cross-shore from the ENE, it's down to a moderate breeze at 16 mph. It's the most surfable call in the whole run. It's not perfect, but it's the best we've got on the table. For a spot like ADs/Doubles that is fairly consistent, this kind of blank run is a bit of a downer, but the swell is there – we just need that wind to drop. Keep an eye on it.
Rusty, out.

Information about the ADs/Doubles Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for ADs/Doubles provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at ADs/Doubles can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our ADs/Doubles 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 (ADs/Doubles) 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 ADs/Doubles 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.
