The Lowdown
Alright, let’s be real. I’ve scanned the next 16 days for Bridges, and it is flat. I mean, properly flat. There is nothing here that qualifies as a surf recommendation right now. The whole 16-day window is a total wipeout. We’re going from 25 July all the way through to 9 August and there’s not a single decent wave on offer.
The water temp is sitting around average for the time of year, nothing unusual there. The wind is mostly cross-off or glassy at times, but that doesn’t matter when there’s no swell to push through. The highest energy we see is a measly 97 (combined energy) on the 31st of July, and that’s with a tiny 3ft swell from the NE and a short period of 7 seconds. It’s all weak, messy, and not worth paddling out for.
Even the mornings with glassy conditions, like the 27th of July, have only 1ft of swell. It’s a joke. The longest period we get is 11 seconds on the 5th of August, but that’s paired with a 0.3ft swell – so, nothing. You’d be floating on your board with your feet dangling.
This break is inconsistent, and this run of poor conditions is a normal reality for the area. It just doesn’t stay flat forever, though. Forecasts can change, and when it does come back, Bridges is a point break that loves a good NW swell. But for now, save your wax and your energy. There is literally nothing to surf.

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.
