Alright folks, Rusty here. Gotta be straight with you – we’ve got a lean run ahead. Looking at the entire 16-day window, there’s really nothing that’s a proper recommendation. The whole stretch is a bit of a write-off for decent waves, but it’s not unusual for this setup to go quiet for a spell.
Starting now and right through the period, the swell just isn't delivering. We kick off Monday July 6th with a tiny 1 ft W swell, weak energy (31), and a cross-off wind that’s making a mess of things. The water’s a touch warmer than normal at 62°F, but that’s the only highlight.
Tuesday July 7th and Wednesday July 8th stay tiny with that same 1 ft W swell. Wednesday morning does go glassy, but with energy down to 25, there’s nothing to push through. Thursday July 9th is the same story—dead calm, glassy conditions, but still just 1 ft of W swell. You could paddle around, but you won’t catch a thing.
Friday July 10th and Saturday July 11th see a slight bump to 2 ft, then a weird 3 ft E swell shows up Saturday afternoon with a terrible 4-second period. That’s just wind chop, not surf.
Then from Sunday July 12th through Tuesday July 14th, we get some pulse of easterly windswell, but it’s all onshore and choppy. Monday July 13th morning hits 5 ft from the east, which is the biggest of the run, but it comes with a 16 mph cross-onshore wind and moderate chop. The combined energy climbs to 177 (moderate), but the quality is poor. It’s the kind of day that looks more interesting for kite surfing than a proper paddle session.
From July 15th onward, it’s back to tiny dribbles and long-period ghosts that never really materialize. There’s a 0.7 ft SSW groundswell with a 16-second period on the 15th, but with energy at 58, it’s just not enough to wrap in. A fresh NW blow on the 18th cleans things up, but there’s nothing in the water.
Bottom line: there are no good surf options in this 16-day window. The consistency is low, and the quality is poor across the board. Forecasts can always change, but as it stands, you’re better off doing something else.
Rusty.

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