Alright, Rusty here. Let's get into it. Look, I've checked the charts and honestly, it's a pretty quiet run for this region. We're looking at a stretch of small, weak swell and messy winds, meaning you're not going to find much worth paddling out for over the next two and a bit weeks. Most days are flagged as poor, so you might be better off polishing the wax off your board for another day.
Starting from Monday the 6th of July right through the whole outlook, nothing really stands out. The swell is tiny, mostly around 2ft to 4ft coming from the WNW, but the period is short – just 6 to 8 seconds – so it's lacking any real grunt. The combined wave energy stays low, often under 100 (like 66 on Monday morning) and peaks around 138 on Wednesday the 8th, which is still only moderate, but the winds are cross-on or onshore, chopping everything up. Even on the rare times the wind goes cross-shore, like Thursday the 9th morning, the swell is too weak at 3ft with only 7 seconds of period to offer any shape. It just never clicks.
The only spot we've got to talk about is Ambatia Beach – a beach and reef setup that rarely breaks. It's sheltered and picks up swell from the west, but the way the wave energy is hitting, it's just not enough. The water temperature is 82°, which is about a touch warmer than normal for this time of year.
Honestly, for the entire 16-day window, I can't point to a single standout session. The first week is a write-off, and the second week – from around the 14th onward – looks even smaller and weaker, with swell dropping to 2ft to 3ft and the same messy wind patterns. There's a gap of several days with no real recommendation, and the trend stays flat. Given the area's reliance on consistent swell, this kind of quiet spell isn't totally out of the ordinary. If you're really desperate, the Wednesday the 8th afternoon has the strongest energy of the bunch at 138, but with onshore winds and short period, it's going to be a bumpy, scrappy mess. For a spot like this, with these wind and swell combos, it's looking more like a session for the kites than a paddle board.
Hang tight. Forecasts can change.

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.
