Alright folks, Rusty here with a look at Broadway.
Man, it’s a quiet stretch. The first week is almost completely flat. Tiny waves—most days under 2 feet—and the wind is mostly onshore or cross-onshore, leaving things choppy. The wave energy is weak, usually well under 100. Not a single session worth the wetsuit.
Tuesday the 7th morning shows a light offshore breeze with clean surface, but the swell is only 2 feet from the east, period just 6 seconds. Not enough push.
The second week doesn’t get better. The combined energy stays low—often under 60. On Saturday the 18th afternoon we see a bump to about 5 feet from the south (energy 144), but the wind is a strong cross-onshore at 25 mph, making it a total mess. That’s more of a kiteboarding setup than anything for a surfboard.
Monday the 20th morning has a very long-period south-east swell (12 seconds), but it’s barely 0.3 feet. Not rideable.
Water temperature is about average for the time of year.
So there’s nothing to get excited about. No recommendations from me. It’s a long stretch of flat conditions. Cross your fingers for a change.
Rusty.

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