The Lowdown
Right, let’s have a look at what’s coming up for Banana Point. It’s going to be a proper mixed bag, and I’ll be straight with you—there’s not a lot to get excited about for the next couple of weeks. The water’s sitting at a touch warmer than normal for late July, but that’s about the only standout.
The first real chance of a surf comes on Sunday morning, 26 July. We’ve got a small 3ft NW swell rolling in with an 8-second period, so it’s a short-period wind swell, not a groundswell. The combined energy is moderate at 138, but the wind is a light cross-off from the SSE at 6 mph, keeping things clean. It’s surfable, but very ordinary—just about enough for a longboard.
After that, the window slams shut. From Sunday afternoon right through to the morning of Friday, 31 July, it’s mostly poor conditions with tiny swell, onshore or cross-onshore winds, and almost no energy. The swell drops to 2ft to 3ft, and the combined energy is well under 100 most of the time. There’s a brief moment on Friday morning, 31 July, with glassy conditions and a 3ft NW swell, but the energy is still weak at 67, and it’s just not enough to call it a wave.
The second week is even quieter. Swell sizes hover around 1ft to 2ft, and the combined energy stays low. The only slight glimmer comes on Friday, 7 August, with a 3ft NW swell and a 9-second period, giving a moderate 123 energy. The morning has a light cross-off breeze, so it’ll be clean, but it’s still small. Saturday afternoon, 8 August, and Sunday afternoon, 9 August, both have glassy conditions and 3ft NW swell, but again, the energy is moderate at best, and the waves are weak.
Honestly, there’s no standout session here. The best on offer is the Sunday morning, 26 July, and even that’s a stretch. If you’re desperate, you could get a few soft ones on a log, but don’t expect much. For most of the 16 days, you’re looking at a long gap from Sunday afternoon, 26 July, until Friday morning, 7 August, with almost nothing worth paddling out for. The consistent lack of energy and size means this is a tough run for paddle surfing. The light winds will keep the surface clean, but there’s just no push.
Keep an eye on the forecast—things can change, but right now, it’s a quiet spell.

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