Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a proper look at what's on the menu for Anzacs over the next couple of weeks.
Right now, it’s a write-off. We’ve got a big, solid 12 ft SW groundswell rolling in, but the wind is howling from the west at 28 mph, turning it into a complete mess. That Friday is a no-go. Saturday doesn’t look much better with onshore winds holding that 7 ft-plus swell in a poor state.
The first real glimmer of hope shows up Sunday the 5th. We’re looking at a nice 7 ft SW groundswell with a very long 17-second period, and the wind swings around to a light offshore ESE, cleaning things right up. The swell energy is pumping at 3975 – solid, powerful stuff. That morning session will be the pick for experienced surfers. By Monday morning the 6th, the swell drops to a more manageable 4 ft, but the conditions are pristine: clean, offshore breeze, and water temps sitting at 58°, which is pretty normal for this time of year.
The standout window, and I mean the real highlight, is Monday the 13th. That morning, we get a clean 5 ft SW groundswell with a proper 16-second period, and the wind turns offshore from the northeast at 16 mph. Combined energy is a strong 1215, and conditions are dialled in for experienced surfers. If you’ve got the skills, that’s the session to circle on the calendar. The swell is big enough to have some punch, but under 8 ft, so it’s still in the sweet spot for those who know what they’re doing. Crowds are possible here as it’s an exposed, very consistent bank.
After that, things get a bit wild again. The 14th sees another solid pulse of SW swell, pushing 10 ft, but with onshore winds and a short 9-second period, it’ll be a lumpy, blown-out mess—more of a kitesurfing show than a paddle surfer's dream.
Further out, the second week gets quieter. The 18th offers a tiny 2 ft SW groundswell, but clean and glassy with a very long period—something for a longboard on a calm morning, but nothing to get too excited about.
Overall, keep your eyes on Monday the 13th. That’s the one. For the rest, it’s a bit of a mixed bag with some good windows and some real dogs.
Rusty.

Information about the Anzacs Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Anzacs provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Anzacs can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Anzacs 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 (Anzacs) 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 Anzacs 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.
Anzacs is 44 km (27 miles) from Mornington. If you plan a holiday in Phillip Island, look for hotels and other accommodation in Mornington. Mornington has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
