The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s get into it. We’ve got a 16-day window, and honestly, the pickings are slim. The only real option on the table is Baldwin Beach Park, a reef and point setup that’s very consistent and exposed to the north-northeast. The water is sitting at 79°, which is about average for this time of year.
The first surf worth mentioning is a quick window on Wednesday morning, the 29th of July. We’ve got a 6 ft NE swell rolling in with a 9-second period, and the energy is moderate at 472. The wind is glassy from the north-northeast at only 3 mph, so it’s going to be clean. This is the standout. It’s a short-lived window because the wind shifts and the quality drops off fast. The crowd factor is "often" out there, so you might have some company.
That’s really it for the good stuff. From Wednesday afternoon the 29th, right through to the end of the period on Thursday the 13th of August, the conditions turn poor. The wind picks up from the east, staying cross or cross-onshore, with speeds between 9 and 19 mph. The swell height stays between 3 ft and 8 ft, mostly from the ENE, but the period is short (mostly 7-8 seconds) and the energy is all over the place, from weak (76) to moderate (1003). The waves are lumpy, choppy, and not worth your time. If you’re a kite surfer, the fresh winds and lumpy conditions on the 31st of July and 1st of August might look interesting, but for a paddle surfer, it’s a pretty blank run.
There’s a slight glimmer on Tuesday the 4th of August, with a 5 ft ENE swell and a longer 11-second period, bringing moderate energy (550). The wind is light at 6 mph, so it’s a bit cleaner, but it’s still rated as marginal. It’s a maybe, but don’t bet the farm on it.
Bottom line: if you’re free on Wednesday morning the 29th of July, get out there early at Baldwin Beach Park. After that, put the board away for a while.
Rusty.

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.
