The Lowdown

G'day, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's cookin' at Boiling Pot.

Overall, the next couple of weeks are looking slim pickings. The majority of the window is filled with small, weak swell. The period kicks off on Wednesday morning, 29 July, with tiny 1ft NE windswell and wonky 7 second period, mixed with a light cross-shore breeze that's messing with the face. The afternoon offers a clean 0.7ft wave, but it's about as lively as a still pond. Not worth getting wet.

Thursday 30 July, the morning brings a bit of a lift with 2ft from the ENE and a clean, gentle offshore wind from the south. The period is still short and the overall energy is only moderate (80). It's surfable, but very ordinary. The best on offer, and the only real standout, is Monday 3 August. The morning shows 3ft from the southeast with a juicy 13-second period, and a gentle offshore breeze from the south making things clean. The combined energy is a solid 396, which is a good boost. It's an inconsistent point break, so you'll need to be patient and it's an advanced wave, so not one for the groms. The water temp is 68°, which is about average for the time of year.

After that, it's a bit of a dry spell. There's a bump in size on Sunday 2 August with 6ft from the ESE, but the period drops back to 7 seconds, and the wind is a messy cross-offshore, making it only marginal. The following days see the swell drop back into the <3ft range with poor to average conditions right through to the start of the second week. The energy is weak (less than 100) for many of these sessions. The 13th of August afternoon looks like it might pick up again with a glassy 3ft from the east, 11-second period, and a combined energy of 280 – another promising prospect, but it's a long way off and forecasts can change.

The Boiling Pot is an exposed point break that's often crowded and inconsistent, so when it does fire, like on the 3rd, you'll want to be on it early. For the rest of the time, you're better off waiting for a better forecast.

Rusty.
