The Lowdown

Righto, grab a coffee. This is a bit of a mixed bag, but there's a real gem hiding in the later part of the outlook for Blue Bowls.

The water temp is sitting at 86°, which is about normal for the time of year, so no surprises there.

The first week is a bit of a write-off, to be honest. We've got a persistent cross-onshore wind from the SSW that's just messing things up. Saturday morning (1st August) is the worst of it, with a strong breeze that's making a mess of the 4ft swell. The wave energy is moderate (1140) but it's all for nothing. That pattern of cross-on wind and choppy conditions hangs around right through the first week. You'll see a few brief windows of cleaner surf, like on Tuesday morning (4th August) when it goes glassy with a 3ft SSW swell and a 15-second period, but the wave energy is still moderate (742) and it's not a huge window. It's a tease.

We get a bit of a change around the second week. The wind shifts to a cross-offshore direction from the west, cleaning things up nicely. Thursday morning (13th August) through to Saturday morning (15th August) is the standout period. The wind is clean, the swell is a solid 5ft to 6ft from the SE, and the period is a workable 10 seconds. The wave energy is moderate (around 1000), but the clean conditions make it all worthwhile. The best of the bunch is probably Saturday morning (15th August) with a light breeze, 5ft of SE swell, and clean conditions. The wave energy is 638, which is moderate, but the quality of the surf will make up for it. The cross-offshore wind will keep the faces of that reef break nice and lined up.

The very end of the outlook, the 16th, sees the wind swing back onshore, so don't count on that being much good.

So, if you've got patience, wait for that second week. The standout is definitely Saturday morning (15th August) at Blue Bowls. It's a reef break, consistent, and that clean cross-offshore wind will make the 5ft SE swell a dream to ride. It's an intermediate break, so it's not for the total beginners, and the crowds are possible, so get there early.

Information about the Blue Bowls Surf forecast

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