Table - best surf conditions forecast for Beacon Point over the next 16 days.
Hey, Rusty here. I gotta be straight with you – Beacon Point is looking pretty flat for the next 16 days. There's no surf worth paddling out for between July 11 and July 26. The swell is tiny, barely reaching 3 ft at best, with periods mostly around 6 to 8 seconds, and the combined energy is weak – only 18 to 76 (that's barely a ripple). Even the best winds – like the glassy mornings or offshore breezes – can't make something out of nothing. This spot is a point break, normally fairly consistent, and it's exposed to swell with an optimum direction from the east. But the swell we're getting is from the ESE or NE, and it's just too small. The water temp? Not worth mentioning because there's no wave to enjoy. Beginners might be tempted if there was something, but there isn't. So yeah, it's a blank run. Sometimes it happens. Keep an eye on the charts – things can change. Rusty.

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