The Lowdown
Alright, let’s get real here. This is a tough one, folks. Over the next 16 days, surf at Broadhaven South is pretty much a no-go for decent paddling. From the 24th of July right through to the 7th of August and beyond, almost every session shows poor surf conditions. There's a massive gap of very little to offer.
We kick off Friday afternoon the 24th with next to nothing. The swell is a tiny 0.3 ft, even if it’s from the southwest and the water feels a touch warmer than normal at 64°F. Wind’s offshore from the northwest at 16 mph, but that doesn’t matter when there’s no wave to ride.
The next few days are flat, with heights barely breaking 0.3 ft or 0.7 ft. By Sunday the 26th, we finally see a pulse – a quick, choppy west swell hits 5 ft with energy of 241, but the period is a short 7 seconds. It's messy and with a fresh offshore breeze at 22 mph, this thing is blown apart. Not surfable.
Monday the 27th drops right back to weak stuff. We don't see anything serious until Sunday the 2nd of August, but it’s onshore wind and only around 2 ft to 2 ft. Even Monday the 3rd, the 4 ft to 5 ft swell is plagued by onshore winds from the east and southeast, killing any shape.
The best on offer – and I’m using that term loosely – appears around the 7th and 8th of August. Friday the 7th brings a clean window: a 3 ft WSW groundswell with 8-second period and energy of 100, with a fresh offshore from the northwest at 19 mph. It’s small, but clean. Saturday the 8th pushes energy up to 166, with a similar 3 ft swell from the WSW (10-second period), and cross-offshore winds. It's not big, but for a sheltered, inconsistent spot like this, and when everything else is dead, that’s the pick of the litter.
Do not get your hopes up. This is a blank run, and for Broadhaven South that’s not unusual. The only real standout is Saturday the 8th of August for small-wave riders who can handle maybe a few cleaner shoulders. Crowds might show up as it’s often busy when it’s the only game in town. If the wind gets tricky, this setup looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing.
