Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what Anzacs is serving up over the next couple of weeks. It’s a bit of a mixed bag, so stay sharp.

We’ve got a solid, very consistent SW-break that’s exposed and handles a solid SW groundswell. Right now though, the start of the run is a write-off. Monday and Tuesday are just howling with strong winds – cross, cross-on, the lot – putting a real mess on a hefty 9.8-13.1ft SW swell. That’s big and ugly. The energy is pumping (3469 and 9940), but the conditions are poor. This is more of a kite-surfing setup than anything you’d want to paddle into. Just let those days pass.

Wednesday the 15th is still messy but the swell starts to drop. Not worth it.

Now, here’s where it gets interesting. From Thursday morning the 16th, the wind starts to behave. We get light breezes turning onshore, and the swell settles to a clean, manageable 5.6-5.9ft. The energy is moderate (1308-1246).

The standout is Friday the 17th. The morning is clean with a light cross-offshore N wind and a 5.2ft SW groundswell at a long 16 seconds (1164 combined energy). The afternoon? Glassy. Dead calm. That same 5.6ft SW swell at a very long 17 seconds. That’s proper groundswell, and with glassy conditions, it’s going to be super clean. For experienced surfers, this is the pick of the week. Anzacs will be handling that long-period energy well as an exposed break.

Saturday the 18th is still good. Morning glass-off, clean 4.3-3.9ft SW swell, gentle breezes. A solid, fun day for the confident intermediates. The water temp here is 13.8°C (about 57°F), which is about average for this time of year, so nothing wild there.

After that, the swell drops off for a few days. Sunday the 19th and into the next week is marginal – small 2.6-4.6ft swell, clean but weak. There’s a little pulse of energy mid-week around the 21st, but nothing to write home about.

Then, look ahead to Friday, July 24. This is the long-range standout. We get a significant new pulse of SW groundswell – clean, 7.2ft at an 18-second period, with light offshore NW wind in the morning and glassy conditions in the afternoon. The energy is back up to 3259. That’s a serious, powerful wave. It's over 6.6ft, so this is for experts only. A beautiful, powerful, clean day if you’ve got the skill. Saturday the 25th follows up with another 5.2-5.6ft at 15 seconds under light offshore breezes. Also excellent.

The very end of the run, around the 26th to 28th, turns messy again with stronger cross-shore winds, so the good window is pretty defined.

Honestly, the clear winners here are Friday the 17th for a classic, clean, intermediate-to-expert session, and Friday the 24th for a powerful, expert-only groundswell day. The rest is either too windy, too small, or just average.

Stay stoked.

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.
