The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's on offer for the coming weeks.
Honestly, it's a tough run ahead. The forecast for the entire 16-day window is looking pretty grim with no real surf to get excited about. We're looking at a long stretch of small, weak waves and messy conditions. The first solid sign of any kind of surfable wave doesn't even appear until the 27th of July, and even then, it's only a marginal call.
The only spot in the game is Ambatia Beach, a sheltered beach and reef setup that's a beginner-friendly wave. It's a spot that rarely breaks, so a blank run like this is actually pretty normal for the area. The water is sitting at a warm 84°, which is a touch warmer than usual for this time of year, but you won't be feeling it much while you're sitting on a flat board.
The week kicks off with nothing. Wednesday the 22nd and Thursday the 23rd are a write-off. Tiny swells around 2ft to 3ft from the WNW with a short, weak period of 5 to 7 seconds. The combined energy is pitiful, sitting between 15 and 60, and the wind is a messy cross-shore or cross-onshore breeze. The wave comment says it best: "poor surf conditions."
Friday the 24th is more of the same, with a 3ft to 4ft swell and weak energy up to 87. Saturday the 25th sees a bit of a bump in size, hitting 5ft to 5ft from the WNW with a period of 8 seconds. The combined energy jumps to 344, which is moderate, but the wind is still cross-shore or cross-on, keeping things choppy and poor. That 5ft is getting a bit too big for beginners, but it's not clean enough for anyone else.
Sunday the 26th and Monday the 27th are the only real glimmers. Sunday morning sees a drop in swell to 3ft, but the wind is light and cross-on. Monday the 27th morning has a 4ft swell from the WNW with a period of 8 seconds and a light cross-on breeze, with combined energy of 161. It's still only rated as "marginal" at best, and the wind is still on it, so it's not a standout by any stretch.
After that, from the 28th of July all the way through to the 6th of August, it's a flat and hopeless pattern. Swells are tiny, often under 2ft, with periods of 5 to 8 seconds. The combined energy stays below 100, and the wind is either a light cross-on or a moderate onshore breeze, which is just no good for surfing. The wave comment is consistently "poor surf conditions."
The only day that might be worth a very optimistic look is Monday the 27th of July morning. It's not good, it's just the least bad. For a true standout, we're out of luck. The setup looks more interesting for a kite surfer than a paddle surfer during this entire period.
Rusty, signing off.

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

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 Ambatia Beach 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.
