Alright, Rusty here again, but this time in feet and miles.
So, looking at Ann Street Peaks, the first week and a half is a real struggle. Small, weak, short-period swells, with a lot of cross and onshore wind, and even some rain showers. The combined wave energy is mostly in the weak range, just a few days nudging into moderate. The water temp is about what you’d expect for July.
The only real light at the end of the tunnel comes in the second week. Monday, July 20th, the swell jumps to a clean 7ft from the ESE, with a 9-second period. The wind is a light offshore from the S, blowing at 10 km/h, so the surf will be clean. The combined energy is 625 (strong). This is the standout. Crowds are possible, so get there early.
Tuesday, July 21st, also looks good in the morning. You’ve got a 6ft ESE swell, 10-second period, and a light offshore SW wind – glassy conditions. The combined energy is 653 (strong). That’s another one to circle on the calendar.
After that, it’s back to ordinary. So, for the whole 16 days, only those two mornings are the real deal. The rest is a long wait.
Rusty out.

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