The Lowdown
Right then, let's have a look at what’s coming up for Baldwin Beach Park. It’s a reef and point setup, very consistent, which is a good thing because for the next several days, it’s looking pretty ordinary.
For the first weekend and into the start of the week, honestly, it’s a bit of a write-off. The wind’s coming in from the ENE most of the time, blowing cross or cross-onshore, and the swell is short-period stuff, around 7 to 8 seconds. That’s just not doing it any favours. The water temp is sitting at about 80°, which is pretty much average for this time of year.
Now, hold onto your hat, because Wednesday the 29th of July is where it gets interesting. We’ve got a glassy morning, with the wind dropping right off – just a slight air. The swell is coming in from the NE at 8ft, and with a period of 10 seconds, that’s some proper groundswell. The combined energy is strong (1133), and it’s set for excellent conditions for those who know what they’re doing. That afternoon, the wind switches to a light cross-off, the swell drops a bit to 6ft from the ENE, but it’ll be clean. This is the standout of the whole run.
After that little taste of glory, it’s back to the grind. From Thursday the 30th through to the end of the first week of August, it’s mostly cross-shore winds with lumpy chop. There are a few glimmers – like the 2nd of August where the swell period jumps to 16 seconds, giving a long-period groundswell from the east at 4ft, and the energy is strong (1065). But the wind is cross-shore, so it’s marginal at best. That long-period swell will be tricky on a beach break, but this is a reef and point, so it should wrap in a bit better.
After that, it just sort of fades out into weak, short-period slop through the second week. Nothing really worth getting excited about.
So, the one day to really circle on the calendar is Wednesday the 29th of July. Get on it while it’s glassy.

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.
