Table - best surf conditions forecast for Bicentenial Park over the next 16 days.
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you: this outlook for Bicentennial Park is a tough one. I’ve looked at the charts and I gotta say, we are staring at a blank run for the entire 16-day period. There’s simply nothing good on offer. Every single window, from now all the way through to Sunday the 26th of July, is flagged as "poor surf conditions." That’s a long stretch of flat and messy water.
The problem is a complete lack of any real push. The combined swell energy is weak across the board – we’re talking a maximum of just 45 (moderate wave energy) late on the 14th, but mostly it’s hanging around the mid-20s to low teens, showing very weak wave energy. The swell height barely breaks 2 ft, and it’s coming from the ESE with a short 8-second period, which means the waves are weak, soft, and mushy. For a spot that’s exposed to the east, this is just a sad little dribble.
The only silver lining is that when the wind does swing offshore from the WSW or W, mainly on a few mornings, it goes glassy or clean. The morning of Saturday the 11th, Sunday the 12th, Tuesday the 14th, and then a few mornings in the second week like Saturday the 18th and Sunday the 19th, you’ll get clean water with no wind. But even then, you’re looking at 0.7 ft to 1 ft of weak, short-period slop. It’s ankle to knee-high, gutless and not worth paddling out for.
There are no standouts here, no hidden gems. If you’re a beginner, the tiny swell and occasional glassy conditions might be okay for a splash, but for anyone wanting a proper wave, this is a stay-at-home kind of forecast. The water temperature at the start is a balmy 84°, feeling about average for this time of year. The break itself is a reef, and it’s inconsistent and always crowded when there’s any bump – but right now, that won't be a problem.
Given the persistent small surf and onshore breezes on most afternoons, this setup is honestly more interesting for kite surfers than paddle surfers, especially when the SE wind picks up in the afternoon.
I hate to say it, but this is about as bleak as it gets. Better luck next time.
Rusty.

Information about the Bicentenial Park Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Bicentenial Park provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Bicentenial Park can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Bicentenial Park 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 (Bicentenial Park) 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 Bicentenial Park 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.
