The Lowdown
Alright, let’s look at this in feet and miles per hour for those who think that way. Batts Rock is a point that’s inconsistent at the best of times, and this forecast is a tough one. The wind is blowing offshore from the east every single day, which would be perfect if there was a lick of swell, but there just isn’t. The water is about average temperature for the time of year.
The whole period starts flat on Sunday, August 2. The combined swell energy is zero (0). We go through Monday the 3rd and Tuesday the 4th with a tiny 0.3ft north swell, period around 10–11 seconds, but the energy is only at 2. That’s barely a ripple. Wednesday the 5th through Sunday the 10th is completely dead—zero energy. Monday the 11th? Flat. Tuesday the 12th sees another tiny 0.3ft north swell, period stretching to 12 seconds in the afternoon, but the energy only peaks at 5. That's still too weak to do anything with.
From Wednesday, August 13, all the way to Monday the 17th, it’s a total bust. The wind cranks up to 25 mph offshore at times, making it a battle just to sit out there. Energy levels are mostly zero, with only a couple of days showing a 1 or a 2 from those minuscule 0.3ft north swells. For a traditional paddle surfer, this is a complete write-off. The only folks who might have a bit of fun are the kite surfers if the breeze stays strong and clean. For the rest of us, it’s a long, flat run, and for a spot that rarely breaks anyway, this is pretty much par for the course.

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