Best Forecast Surf Conditions for Arashi Bay Reef this week:

The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's be real about this one. We've got a full 16-day window, but it's a tough one. The first records for swell start on July 14th, but honestly, for the whole run, we're looking at a flat spell. There's nothing to get excited about for the foreseeable future.
The only spot in the frame is Arashi Bay Reef, a rarely breaks reef setup that needs a specific NW swell. The water is sitting at a warm 82°, which is just about average for this time of year, so no surprises there.
From July 14th right through to July 29th, there's zero swell energy hitting this coast. The combined energy reading is a flat 0 (0) for the entire period. The wind is howling from the east at 22 to 28 mph, which is a solid offshore breeze for this spot. While that keeps the surface clean, with no waves to surf, it's just a cruel, glassy bluff. The wind is so strong it's near impossible to paddle into anything anyway.
For a break that rarely breaks, a blank run like this is pretty normal for the area. There's just no surf on offer. A couple of days in the second week (around July 25th to 27th) the wind drops to a fresh breeze, but it still doesn't matter because the swell is absent. Honestly, with that much wind and no swell, this setup looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing.
Hang in there, fingers crossed the forecasts change. This is Rusty, signing off.

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