The Lowdown
Alright, this is Rusty. Let's have a look at the 16-day window for Bridges.
Well, I gotta be straight with you—this is a tough one. The whole 16-day outlook is a long, flat stretch. There’s simply nothing doing. The forecast shows wave energy is weak, practically non-existent, with combined energy levels barely reaching three digits on a couple of occasions, and most of the time sitting in the low double digits or single digits. For instance, the highest reading is a weak 125 (combined energy of all swells directed here) on Thursday afternoon, July 30th, but that's attached to a "poor surf conditions" call. The swell is tiny, with a short period from the NE, and the wind is either cross-off or onshore. It's a blank run for us.
There are no recommended surf windows. The break is a point break that is inconsistent and sheltered from the NW swell, and the swells that do show up are tiny, weak, and from the wrong direction. You’d be wasting your time.
The water temperature is sitting at 84°F with a 1°F anomaly, so it's about average for this time of year, but there's no surf to enjoy it in.
This is one of those periods where the area just goes to sleep. It happens. Forecasts can change, but as it stands, there's nothing to get excited about for the next 16 days.
Rusty.

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