The Lowdown
G’day, Rusty here. Let’s be honest – the next sixteen days at North Broulee (Broulee-North) are a real grind. We’ve got a few tiny windows of clean surf right at the start, but the big stuff that shows up later is way too gnarly for this spot.
The best chance to get wet is Wednesday the 2nd. We’re looking at a small 2ft south swell, running at 10 seconds. The combined swell energy is only 101 (moderate), so it’s not powerful, but the wind is offshore at 6 mph and glassy. For a beginner-friendly break, that’s as good as it gets right now.
Thursday the 3rd is similar – 1ft swell, offshore wind in the morning, but even weaker energy (60). Friday the 4th goes dead flat with glassy conditions, but there’s just nothing to ride. The weekend is a write-off: Saturday the 5th has a tiny north-east windswell with a 5-second period, and the wind is howling offshore at 16 mph – blown out before it even starts.
From Wednesday the 9th, things get properly big. A 7ft south-southwest swell rolls in with 8-second period and strong energy (824). That’s already too big for beginners. Thursday the 10th and Friday the 11th are straight-up dangerous – we’re talking 10ft to 12ft swells from the south, periods up to 11 seconds, and combined energy readings over 3000 and 4800 (very strong). That’s expert-only, and even then, it’s going to be a washing machine. The forecast notes that the swell is too big for this break.
After that, it’s messy and poor right through to the 16th. The water temperature is a normal 63°, nothing weird there.
So look, if you want a paddle, Wednesday morning (2nd) is your only real look. Everything else is either flat, messy, or way over your head. That’s the blunt truth from your mate.
Rusty.

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.
