Alright, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what Ann Street Peaks has in store for us.
The outlook is pretty grim for a while. We've got a long stretch of poor conditions ahead, with cross-shore winds and lumpy, choppy surf. The first real glimmer of something surfable doesn't show up until Saturday, July 11th.
Overall pattern: A messy, windy start with some moderate energy but terrible wind for the first week. Then a drop-off into tiny, weak surf.
The long wait: From now through to Friday, July 10th, it's a write-off. Wind is either a fresh cross-shore or cross-onshore, making a mess of the waves. The swell sticks around a bit, with combined energy values up to 1989 on Wednesday, July 8th, but the cross-wind just ruins it. That Wednesday morning sees a 7ft SE swell at 12 seconds, but with a fresh cross-shore, it's just a lumpy, blown-out mess – only for the desperate.
The standouts (such as they are):
The best of a bad bunch is Saturday, July 11th morning. We've got glassy conditions with a slight air, and a clean 3ft ESE swell rolling in. The combined energy is only 232, so it's weak, but the offshore wind makes it the cleanest window in the whole forecast. It's small and gutless, but it'll be the smoothest you'll find. Crowds are possible here, so with clean but tiny waves, expect a few others to have the same idea.
Sunday, July 12th morning also looks half-decent. The wind goes cross-off from the NW, cleaning up a 3ft ESE swell (273 energy, 11-second period). It'll be small but tidy.
End of the run: After that, it fades fast. By Monday, July 13th, we're down to 2ft with offshore wind but barely any push (71 energy). From Tuesday, July 14th onwards, it's flat to tiny – 1.0ft and 1ft waves with almost no energy. The final week is a total washout. There's a tiny spike on Saturday, July 18th with a 2ft SE swell at 12 seconds, but it's cross-onshore and weak (166 energy).
Bottom line: This is a lean period. The only window worth paddling out is Saturday, July 11th morning for some clean, small waves. After that, you're waiting for a new swell that isn't on the charts.
Rusty.

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 Ann Street Peaks 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.
