The Lowdown
G’day, this is Rusty. Let’s have a look at what’s on offer for the next 16 days at Baldwin Beach Park.
Right off the bat, I gotta be straight with you—there’s not a single standout session in this whole outlook. The surf’s gonna be pretty average, and the wind is mostly cross-shore, making a mess of things. The first few days are a write-off: Saturday, August 1st, through Tuesday, August 4th, we’ve got swell around 5ft to 8ft, but it’s short-period, choppy, and the wind is a fresh cross-shore breeze at 19 mph. The water temp is sitting at 80°, which is pretty normal for this time of year. The combined wave energy is moderate—around 890 early on Saturday, but the quality is just poor. The break is a reef and point setup, so it needs decent conditions, but it’s not getting them.
The swell hangs around in the 4ft to 6ft range through the first week, but it’s all short-period junk, with cross-shore or cross-onshore winds. The period hits 11 seconds on Tuesday, August 4th, but the wind is still cross, so it’s not clean. The energy drops to 215 on the 5th, and by Thursday, August 6th, it’s barely 3ft with a period of 5 seconds and weak energy (105). That’s a beach day, not a surf day.
The second week doesn’t look any better. From Saturday, August 8th, to Sunday, August 16th, the swell stays between 4ft and 6ft, all short-period (7-8 seconds), with moderate to fresh cross-shore winds. The combined energy hovers between 143 and 334—weak to moderate. The wind is always cross, never offshore, so the surface is always lumpy. The break is very consistent, but honestly, it’s not breaking well with this setup.
Given the consistent cross-shore wind and poor surf quality, this spot is more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing. There’s no real highlight. If you’re desperate, the best chance might be around Monday, August 3rd, when the swell dips to 5ft and the wind is a gentle breeze, but it’s cross-onshore, so it’s still choppy. Not worth getting excited about.
Overall, it’s a long 16-day gap with no good surf. The area is pretty consistent normally, so this blank run is a bit of a bummer, but forecasts can change. Keep an eye on the wind.
Rusty.
