The Lowdown

Alright, grab a coffee, 'cause we're looking at a pretty flat stretch here. Beacon Point's got nothing to get excited about for the next 16 days – the swell is tiny, the energy is weak, and the conditions are mostly messy. It's a quiet run, but it won't stay poor forever; forecasts can change.

Let's break it down. From Sunday 19 July through to Monday 3 August, the biggest swell we see is barely 3 ft, and that's only on a few afternoons with short period (4–5 seconds) and weak energy (around 36–67). The water temperature is sitting at 84°F, which is about average for this time of year – no anomaly to speak of.

The best of a bad lot? Friday 24 July morning and Saturday 25 July morning. On Friday 24, there's a tiny 2 ft ESE swell with an 8 second period, light offshore wind from the SSW, and clean conditions – but the energy is only 42, so it's barely surfable. Saturday 25 morning is similar: 2 ft from the E, 8 seconds, offshore WSW wind, energy 47. Both are "surfable but very ordinary". If you're desperate for a paddle, those are your windows. But honestly, the waves are too small and weak to recommend.

The rest of the period is all poor surf – cross-shore winds, onshore, or just no swell. There's a few glassy mornings (like Tuesday 28 July morning with 1 ft and glassy wind) but the swell is pitiful. No standout days, no real quality. For beginners, even the 2 ft is okay, but the lack of any decent energy means it's more of a float than a surf.

So bottom line: leave the board at home for now. The surf just isn't there.

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.
