Arashi Beach surf forecast from 30 Jul 2026:
Best Forecast Surf Conditions for Arashi Beach this week:
The largest open ocean swell (not directed at the beach) is 3.0m 8s period and expected on Thursday (Jul 30) at 11PM.
The Lowdown
Alright folks, it's Rusty here. Let's be straight with you – the next 16 days are looking like a write-off for a paddle at Arashi Beach. The data is telling a pretty clear story: there's zero energy in the water for the entire period. The combined swell energy is a flat zero (0) from now through to the 14th of August. There's simply no surf to be had.
Right from Thursday afternoon, July 30th, through the entire stretch, we're seeing "poor surf conditions" every single day. The wind is a major factor – it's blowing strong and offshore from the east, hitting 28 mph to 31 mph on occasion. While that offshore wind would normally mean clean conditions, with no swell to work with, it's just a cruel joke. The water temperature is sitting at 82.6°F, which is about average for the time of year, but that's about the only thing that's normal.
Arashi Beach is a beginner spot that rarely breaks at the best of times, and this forecast confirms a long, dry spell. There are no standout options, no hidden windows, no hope spots. The entire 16-day window is a gap of nothing. If you're looking to get wet, a kite might be more fun than a surfboard in these strong, consistent winds, but for a paddle surfer, it's a complete blank. I'll be back when there's something worth talking about.

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