The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let's get into it for this stretch.
Honestly, mate, I've gotta be straight with you. Looking at the whole 16-day window for Beacon Point, it's a grim run. There's not a single session that I'd get out of bed for. The waves are just too small and weak to get excited about, and the conditions are mostly ordinary.
We start off on Tuesday, July 28th, with a tiny 1ft easterly swell. The water temp is a pretty average 84° for this time of year. Morning is glassy, but the waves are just too poor to bother with. The wind flips to a cross-shore SE in the arvo, making it a write-off.
Wednesday the 29th looks clean in the morning with a light offshore from the WSW, but again, we're only looking at 1ft of swell. The energy is totally weak. There's nothing to push a surfer around.
This pattern just keeps rolling. Thursday, Friday, the weekend... it's all small, weak swell. We get a few clean windows, like the glassy mornings on the 4th and 5th of August, but the swell is still puny at 1-2ft. It's frustrating, because the conditions are sometimes there, but the ocean just isn't giving us any power.
The only time the swell even nudges up to 3ft is on Monday afternoon, August 3rd. The finder calls it "surfable waves but very ordinary conditions," and that's about the best we get. The period is a shocking 4 seconds, so it's just a messy windswell with no punch. It's still a pass.
For the rest of the run, right through to Wednesday, August 12th, it's more of the same. Tiny, weak swell, and often with cross or onshore winds. The ESE direction is constant, but it's just not delivering.
Forget about kite surfing too; even the wind is inconsistent.
Honestly, there's nothing to recommend here. It's a full 16-day blank for any decent surf. Keep the board in the car, but don't bother driving to the point. These flat spells happen, but they don't usually last this long. Forecasts change, so we'll keep an eye on it.
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.
