The Lowdown
Alright, let me break this down for the imperial crew. The next couple of weeks are looking pretty average to start. From Wednesday the 22nd through the end of July, the wind is mostly cross-shore and the swell is short-period and weak. Not the kind of stuff that gets you out of bed early.
Your standout window is Thursday afternoon, July 30th at Baldwin Beach Park. The wind goes glassy – hardly a breath – and there’s a 5ft swell coming from the NE. That’s clean, lined-up surf off that reef and point. The period is 9 seconds, so not a long groundswell, but it’ll be fun and easy to paddle into. Water temp is about 79°F, right around average for this time of year. This spot is very consistent and open to the NNE, so when the conditions line up, it works. Crowds are often, but a Thursday might give you a bit more space.
Looking further ahead, the real size shows up around August 4th through the 6th. That’s more than a week out, so not a lock yet, but it looks promising. Swell builds to 7ft to 10ft with a 12-second period by Thursday the 6th – that’s proper groundswell energy. The combined energy is in the 2000s, so there’s serious power. Winds stay light and cross-shore, so expect cleaner conditions. At 10ft, this is strictly for experienced surfers. Beginners, stay on the sand. The reef and point setup will handle that long period swell well.
The week between July 31st and August 3rd is mostly small and choppy – not worth planning around.
Bottom line: your best call for clean, user-friendly waves is Thursday afternoon, July 30th at Baldwin Beach Park. The early August window has real potential for the experienced crew if the forecast holds.

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