Table - best surf conditions forecast for Batts Rock over the next 16 days.
Hey folks, Rusty here. I’m not gonna sugarcoat it – this outlook is a real bummer. For the next 16 days, there’s basically nothing to get excited about.
Starting from Thursday, July 9, it’s completely flat. Zero combined swell energy. Wind’s a steady 18-22 mph easterly offshore, which would be perfect if we had waves, but we don’t. Friday the 10th is the same – glassy, no surf.
On Saturday, July 11, we get a whisper of a pulse – a 0.3 ft swell from the north with a 14-second period. But with combined swell energy at just 4, it’s barely a breath. Offshore wind’s still there, but it’s too small to matter.
From Sunday, July 12, all the way through to July 23, it’s just tiny bumps: 0.5 to 0.7 ft swells at best, with periods from 8-12 seconds, and combined wave energy never getting out of the single or low teens (11, 15, 9). Every day reports “poor surf conditions.” The wind stays offshore (16-22 mph from the east), keeping the surface clean, but there’s nothing to ride. For an inconsistent point like Batts Rock, these north swells with long periods just won’t deliver. Water temp is 83°, which is about normal for this time of year.
By the last week of July – around the 21st onward – it goes dead flat again. Combined energy is zero. By July 23 and 24, the wind turns a bit cross-offshore, but it doesn’t matter when there are no waves.
There is no best day here. No standout. It’s a flat spell, plain and simple. Sometimes it’s like this. Keep the board in the bag and check back later.
Rusty.

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.
