Table - best surf conditions forecast for Beacon Point over the next 16 days.
G'day, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you – we’ve got a long stretch of quiet water ahead. For the next 16 days, the swell at Beacon Point is barely ticking over. There’s a real drought on, with the first recommendation not showing up until late in the run. From now until Tuesday, July 21, it’s basically flat or just tiny, unrideable slop. That’s over a week with nothing to get excited about.
The only time things even start to look like a surf is Tuesday afternoon, July 21. Even then, we’re only talking about 2ft swell from the SE, coming in with a short, weak period of 7 seconds. The combined swell energy is a meagre 58 – that’s weak stuff. The wind is light and cross-off from the south, keeping the surface clean, but the whole setup is just ordinary. It’s surfable, but only just, and you'd be working hard for scraps.
Otherwise, across the whole period, we’ve got persistent 0.7ft to 1ft swells with periods under 9 seconds, mostly from the ESE or SE. The combined energy never gets above 28 except for that one afternoon. Winds will be light and often offshore or cross-off, which is a tease – clean conditions with nothing to surf. A few afternoons will see a bit of a cross-shore chop, but it doesn’t matter when the waves are that small.
Beacon Point is a beginner-friendly point break that's fairly consistent, but even it can’t do much with this. Crowds are possible when it’s good, but honestly, there won’t be anyone out there for this run. The water temperature is about average for this time of year.
So here’s the bad news: there’s no standout, no real session worth circling on the calendar. Keep an eye on that Tuesday afternoon window, but keep your expectations on the floor. Forecasts can change, and it won't stay this flat 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.
