The Lowdown
Alright, let's get into it. Rusty here, and I've got the lowdown for Broadhaven South. I gotta be straight with you – this outlook is a tough one. We're looking at a long stretch of pretty quiet conditions. The first real whisper of surf doesn't show up until Saturday the 1st of August, and even then, it's not a barnburner.
For the next week and a half, it's all flat or near-flat. We're talking ankle-snappers at best, with swell heights barely touching 0.3 feet. The wind is often cross-off or offshore, which would be perfect if there was any swell to work with. The water is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, sitting around 64°, but that's small comfort when you're staring at a lake.
Our first hint of something arrives on Saturday the 1st of August. The morning shows a little 2-foot swell from the west, with a fresh offshore breeze from the NW. That's a clean look, and the energy is creeping up (83). It's not much, but it's something. The afternoon gets a bit more interesting, with the swell bumping up to 3 feet from the west, but the wind swings cross-off and freshens. The energy jumps to 130, which is moderate. Still, it's small and the period is short at 10 seconds.
The real standout in this entire 16-day window, if you can call it that, is Sunday the 2nd of August. By the afternoon, we see a bump in swell from the WSW at 4 feet. The period is short at 9 seconds, but the combined energy hits a solid 488, which is a decent pulse. The wind is a cross-off 19 mph from the west, so it'll be workable but a bit bumpy. This is really the only day with enough oomph to get a proper ride, but that 4 feet is still on the smaller side and the short period means it won't be the best shape.
After that, Monday the 3rd of August gives us a clean 3-foot wave in the morning with light offshore wind, but the energy drops right back off. Then it's back to small, messy junk for the rest of the forecast.
Honestly, if you're desperate to get wet, target Sunday the 2nd of August in the afternoon. It's the biggest swell of the run, but keep expectations low. Otherwise, save your energy. When the surf is this inconsistent, it's normal for the area, and forecasts can always change, but right now it's a waiting game.
Rusty.
