The Lowdown
Alright, mate, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s cookin’ for the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, it’s a pretty quiet stretch for North Broulee. The first real window of interest doesn’t show up until Monday the 10th, and even then it’s not exactly firing. The wait is worth a mention, because Saturday and Sunday are a write-off with tiny, messy surf.
The standout action is shaping up for Monday the 10th. The morning sees a clean 7ft swell from the ENE, with a moderate cross-off wind keeping the surface tidy. The wave energy is solid, with a combined energy count of 863 – that’s proper grunt. The water’s hovering around 63°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, so you might not need the thickest rubber. This swell is a bit punchy, over 5ft, so it’s not a beginner’s session, but for the more experienced crew, it’s the best we’ve got. The afternoon holds up at 6ft, also clean.
Tuesday the 11th is smaller and cleaner, with 3ft to 3ft and a light cross-off breeze. Not a standout, but a nice, easy paddle if you’re keen.
The following week sees a drop-off. There’s a brief flutter on the 13th with a 4ft southerly swell and offshore wind in the morning, but the energy is weak (226) and the period is short at 8 seconds. Then it’s mostly tiny, onshore slop until the 21st of August, where we get a glassy 3ft morning, but the period is a poor 6 seconds – it’s gonna be bumpy and weak.
To be honest, if you’re looking for a proper session, aim for the Monday the 10th. That’s the one. The rest is a lot of waiting.

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.
