The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what Beacon Point has got cooking for us. I’ve gotta be straight with you – this stretch of the forecast is not the stuff of legends.
We’re looking at a solid two-week run where the swell is small and the conditions are just ordinary. There’s really no standout window to get excited about.
For the immediate start, through Friday 24 July afternoon, we’ve got a tiny 2ft swell from the ESE at a short 8 seconds. The combined wave energy is weak (65), and with a cross-onshore breeze, it’s pretty choppy. Not worth suiting up for.
Saturday 25 July morning shows a glimmer of hope. Swell drops to 2ft from the E, still short period at 8 seconds, but the wind goes light and cross-off, making things look clean. The combined energy is low (44). It’s surfable but very ordinary – you might get a few, but you won’t be bragging about it.
From Saturday afternoon onwards, it’s a rough road. The swell stays under 3ft for the entire 16-day run, and the period is almost always under 9 seconds. The combined energy mostly sits in the teens and twenties – that’s very weak. There are a few glassy moments, like Monday 27 July morning with a 1ft E swell and glass conditions, but with energy at just 21, it’s barely a ripple.
We see a tiny bump on Friday 07 August afternoon, with the swell getting up to 3ft from the ESE at 7 seconds and energy climbing to 62. But the onshore wind and short period will make it messy.
The truth is, Beacon Point is mostly flat and unremarkable through this whole period. The waves are consistently weak, and the direction isn't hitting the spot properly. Even the clean, offshore wind days do little to help because there’s just no push in the water.
One interesting note: the water temp is 83°, which is pretty average for this time of year, so at least the water’s warm if you fancy a float.
So, summed up: this is a quiet period with no real highlights. If you absolutely need to get wet, that Saturday 25 July morning looks like the most workable session, but keep your expectations low. The surf is skinny across the board.
Stay tuned – it can’t stay this quiet forever.
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.
