The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s break down Baldwin Beach Park. It’s a reef and point break that almost always has some waves, but the quality is a mixed bag.
The first few days are a bust. Sunday the 6th and Monday the 7th are showing 7 ft to 7 ft of easterly swell, but a stiff 16 mph cross-shore wind is ruining it. The combined energy is strong at around 1225, but it’s just a choppy, blown-out mess. Water temp is about average for the season.
The window opens up on Tuesday the 8th. That’s your best bet. The morning is clean with a 6 ft swell from the ENE, a 12-second period giving it some proper groundswell grunt, and a combined energy of 799. The wind is the star here – a light 3 mph SSE breeze, almost glassy. The afternoon holds up clean too, with 5 ft swell and a light 6 mph SE wind. That’s the session to chase.
From Wednesday the 9th onward, it gets ugly. The swell fades, and the wind swings back to a nasty cross-shore, churning up the surface. There’s a little pulse on Friday the 11th with 5 ft swell and a 12-second period, but that 13 mph cross-wind kills any chance of a good wave. The combined energy is moderate at 639, but it’s not worth the paddle. This flat, choppy run goes all the way to the end of the forecast on the 21st, with weak 3 ft to 4 ft swells and constant wind. It’s gonna be a long, quiet stretch.
So, don’t overthink it. Tuesday the 8th is your one clear shot. The rest is a bust.
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.
