The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's on the table for the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, I gotta be straight with you – it's a grim run. The whole 16-day window is a total write-off for any decent surf. There's not a single session that's worth paddling out for. We're looking at a solid blank stretch from now right through to the 8th of August. Not a sniff of a rideable wave in the offering.
The only break on the radar is Ambatia Beach, a sheltered beach and reef setup that's a beginner spot but rarely breaks. And when it does, it's not pretty. The water's a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, sitting at 84°, but that's about the only good news.
The swell's just a sad little pulse from the WNW, and it's weak. Friday morning, the 24th of July, kicks off with a tiny 3 ft swell at a short 6-second period, with a combined energy of just 59 – that's barely a ripple. The wind is a messy cross-shore from the SW, making it choppy and poor. The whole weekend doesn't get any better. Saturday and Sunday see the swell bump up to 5 ft and 5 ft, with combined energy finally hitting 298 and 333, but the wind is always cross-onshore, ruining any chance of a clean face. It's a total chop-fest.
We drop right back down into the weeds from Monday, July 27th, onwards. Swell heights are stuck between 1.0 ft and 3 ft, with periods rarely cracking 8 seconds. The combined energy is mostly in the double digits, with the highest being a paltry 88. The wind is a constant problem – cross-onshore, onshore, or just a light cross-chop. There's a moment on the 8th of August with glassy conditions, but it's on a 1 ft swell. That's a lake, not a surf break.
This is just one of those stretches where the ocean is taking a nap. It’s a beach and reef setup here, so with the combination of tiny, weak swell and onshore wind, this spot is more interesting for a kiteboarder than a surfer right now. Don't waste the petrol. Forecasts can change, but for now, it's a hard pass.
Rusty.

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. If you surf the same spot (Ambatia Beach) 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 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.
