Alright, let’s break it down in feet and mph.
The next couple of weeks are a mixed bag around here. We’ve got a solid swell train coming late in the first week with some serious size for the experienced crew, but also a few clean, smaller windows if you just want a paddle.
First up, North Broulee. Wednesday morning (8 July) kicks things off with a 7ft swell out of the SE, period about 10 seconds. Water temp is right around 63°F, which is normal for this time of year. A light cross-off wind from the SW keeps it clean. Combined energy is sitting at 978 (moderate). This swell is getting a bit big for beginners – intermediate and up is the call. Crowds are possible, so keep your head up.
Thursday morning (9 July) the swell drops to 4ft from the ESE, period stretching to 11 seconds, with a light WSW cross-off. Energy is down to 539, but it’s clean. Good for a longboard. Friday morning (10 July) is the first real winner: 4ft SE swell, 9-second period, and glassy conditions – clean as a whistle. That’s the pick of the early days.
Now for the big stuff. Thursday, 16 July morning: swell jumps to 8ft from the SSE, period 12 seconds, energy at 1929 (strong). Clean with a moderate SW cross-off, but it’s expert territory – too big for beginners. Thursday afternoon gets huge: 13ft from the S, period 13 seconds, energy hitting 7056 (very strong). That’s a proper groundswell, only for the experienced.
The true standout is Friday morning, 17 July: 8ft SSE swell, 12-second period, light cross-off from the WSW. Energy is still a strong 1637. That’s excellent, clean, powerful surf. If you’re confident, don’t miss it.
Saturday morning (18 July) settles to 5ft SSE swell with a 10-second period and glassy conditions – a nice, clean weekend option. After that, it fades fast. Sunday morning (19 July) is barely 2ft with a long 12-second period, nearly flat. The rest of the week into the 23rd stays tiny – mostly 2ft or less, clean but dead. Not worth the wetsuit.
Best on offer? Friday morning, 17 July for size, power, and clean lines. For a quiet, glassy session, Friday morning, 10 July is your call.

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