Beavers Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Right, mate. Rusty here.

Look, it's gonna be a tough stretch. We've got a long, quiet run ahead at Beavers. This beach-and-reef setup (Beavers-Hazards) is usually a beginner-friendly spot, but there's barely a ripple on the cards for days. The first bit of hopeful movement doesn't show until Tuesday the 8th of July, so you're looking at a gap that runs all through Friday the 4th, Saturday, Sunday, and Monday—pretty much a blank week to start. Keep the optimism though; this spot is fairly consistent, so it never stays dead for long, and the forecasts can shift.

Alright, finally, on Tuesday morning the 8th of July, we see a pulse of energy. The swell ticks up to 3ft from the SSW with a long period of 18 seconds, and the combined energy is a moderate 516. The morning has a light cross-onshore which will keep things a little bumpy. The real standout is Tuesday afternoon, the 8th of July. The swell holds at 3ft, still SSW, and the wind swings around to a light cross-offshore from the NW. That is clean. The combined energy is up to 584, still moderate but showing some grunt. For a beginner spot, that's about as good as it gets this week—small, clean, and manageable. Remember, the water temp is sitting at 62°F, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year.

Wednesday the 9th of July looks similar. The morning is a write-off with light onshores, but the Wednesday afternoon session, also on the 9th, is worth a look. The wind goes cross-offshore again from the NW with a gentle breeze, and the combined energy is a strong 603. Same 3ft, 16 second SSW swell, and it's clean. That's your best bet for the entire outlook—small but you'll get some nice, lined-up little runners without the crowd, though Beavers does often get busy, so expect company.

After that, it gets messy. Thursday the 10th brings a drop in period and more onshore influences. The swell direction swings to a short-period WNW, which means weaker, jumbled up waves. The 14th of July has a tiny glimmer with a glassy afternoon and 3ft from the WNW, but the period is only 9 seconds—short and weak, combined energy a paltry 185. It's surfable, but ordinary.

Everything in the second week is pretty marginal. The swell stays small, mostly under 3ft, with cross-onshore winds. There's nothing really worth planning a trip around. Just keep an eye on the window between the 8th and 9th of July for the cleanest, most fun waves on offer.

Rusty.
