Alright, mate, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on the cards for our little corner of the coast. I’ve got to be straight with you – the finder's given us a single spot to talk about, and to be honest, it's a tough run ahead.
We are looking at Bridges, a point break that’s rated for intermediates but is inconsistent. It’s a sheltered spot, and it really wants a good NW swell to get going properly. Well, for the next week and a half or so, we just aren’t seeing that. The whole 16-day window is a bit of a letdown for surfers.
There’s a massive gap right from the start. The first proper surf recommendation comes in on Monday the 6th of July, but the waves are tiny, only 2ft to 3ft from the NE, with a short, weak 6-second period. The combined swell energy is pitiful, barely registering 64 (moderate energy) at best, and the conditions are marked as poor. The wind is a steady cross-off from the ENE, so it's clean but the swell just isn't there. That energy jumps a bit to 110 (moderate energy) on Thursday the 9th of July, but it’s still just 4ft of weak, short-period stuff. This pattern of small, weak, and messy NE windswell just drags on all through the first week and into the second.
From around the 12th of July, things really bottom out. We are looking at wave heights of 0.3ft to 0.7ft for days on end, with combined swell energy dropping to single digits. It’s basically flat for the entirety of the second week. There’s a tiny blip on the 20th of July, the Monday, with some 2ft to 3ft swell and energy climbing back to 88 (moderate energy), but it’s still the same weak, short-period NE swell. The wind stays cross-off, so it’s clean, but there’s no power behind it.
The best on offer? It’s a grim choice, but I’d say keep an eye on Thursday the 9th of July and Friday the 10th of July. The swell height touches 4ft, the energy gets into three digits (110 and 115), and the wind is clean with clear skies on Friday morning. It’s still not great, and definitely not for experts, but it’s the least poor window in the whole two weeks. For a more reliable wave, you’d need to wait for a proper NW swell to hit this inconsistent point break. Until then, this setup looks far more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing.
Stay tuned, forecasts can change.
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.
