The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you—this is a tough one.
Looking at the whole 16-day window, I gotta say, we’re staring down a pretty bleak stretch for Batts Rock. The pattern is all the same: consistent offshore winds from the east, but the ocean just isn’t delivering. There’s a big gap of nothing at the start. From Monday, 27 July right through to the morning of Monday, 3 August, there’s zero wave energy—flat as a lake. That’s over a week with nothing to ride.
The water’s sitting at 83°F with a 0.5°F anomaly, so about average for this time of year. Nice and warm, but that’s the only good news.
Then, from Monday afternoon, 3 August, we start seeing tiny pulses of swell. It’s almost not worth mentioning, but by Sunday, 9 August, we get the best of a bad lot. A 1.0ft north swell with a 10-second period, and combined energy of just 21 (weak). The wind stays offshore from the east, 15 mph, so it’ll be clean. But mate, it’s tiny. This is strictly for a longboard, and even then, you’ll be scratching for shoulders. The break is inconsistent, so don’t expect much.
The 11 August ends the period with even smaller 0.7ft north swell, period dropping to 8 seconds, and energy down to 8. It’s basically a flat spell all the way through. There’s no standout here. The only thing we’ve got going for us is the wind, which is offshore all the time. If you’re desperate for a paddle and a few knee-high rolls, the 9 August morning is your best bet. But honestly, for a proper surf, there’s nothing on offer.
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.
