The Lowdown
Alright, folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's on offer for Broadhaven South over the next couple of weeks. This spot is a sneaky little inconsistent number – it's sheltered from the NW, often crowded when it's working, and it needs a solid SW swell to really fire. The water temp's sitting around 63.9°, a touch warmer than usual for this time of year.
Honestly, it's a pretty grim run for the first twelve days. From Monday the 27th of July right through to Friday the 7th of August, we're looking at tiny, weak waves with poor conditions – cross-shore winds, onshore slop, and barely any energy. Nothing worth paddling out for. The combined energy rarely breaks 100, and the swell heights are mostly under 3 feet. It's a classic early-summer lull for this break.
But then, hold on to your boardies – Saturday the 8th of August finally shows some life. The morning session is the standout. We've got a nice 6.6 ft swell rolling in from the west, with a period of 7 seconds. That's short-period stuff, so it'll be a bit lumpy and won't have the push of a groundswell, but the wind is a light offshore from the north at 6 mph. That's clean, glassy conditions. The combined energy hits 429 – that's proper strong, so there's plenty of juice in the water. It's a bit too big for beginners (over 5 ft is a test), but for intermediates and up, it's the best we've seen all week. Expect crowds, because this spot gets packed when it's good.
The afternoon on Saturday 8th is still decent – 5.6 ft from the west, offshore NW wind at 12 mph, energy 266 – but the morning is the real winner. After that, Sunday the 9th kicks up a fresh breeze and drops back to weak surf, and the rest of the forecast fades into nothing.
So, one call – if you can get out on Saturday morning, that's your window. The rest of the 16 days? A long, flat gap. Stay patient.
