The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's comin' down at North Broulee.
Right off the bat, it's a slow start. The next few days are pretty flat and ordinary, with weak energy and a bit of a northeasterly breeze messin' things up. We're looking at a real run of poor conditions through Friday, Saturday, and most of Sunday. Monday morning the 7th, we get a little bit of life back with a glassy 3ft SSE swell, but it's still weak, only about 154 units of energy. It's surfable but nothing to write home about.
The real standout window opens up on Tuesday the 8th. That early session is the pick of the week: glassy conditions, a clean 6ft swell from the SSE with a 10-second period pushing moderate energy (603 units). That's your best bet for a proper session. The water temp's sittin' at 63°, about 2 degrees warmer than normal for this time of year, so it's fairly pleasant for a dip.
Thursday the 10th morning pushes up to a solid 8ft from the south, but that's edging into expert territory and with 1811 units of energy, it's a powerful lump. The cross-off breeze keeps it clean, but for most punters that's a big, demanding wave. Friday the 11th morning is worth a mention too – 5ft SSE groundswell, glassy, good energy (605 units). That's clean, solid surfing.
After that, the outlook gets skinny again through the weekend and into the start of the following week, with lots of onshore junk. Tuesday the 15th morning brings a surprise with 6ft from the NE and glassy conditions (361 units), but it's a short period wind swell, so it'll be a bit lumpy and fat. Then we roll into the final weekend – Friday the 18th and Saturday the 19th – with solid, powerful SSE groundswell (1300+ units) but the wind is cross or cross-off, not perfect, and the period is long, so it might be a bit wally.
For the absolute best on offer? Lock in Tuesday morning the 8th. It's got the clean glass, the right size, and decent period. The second-best shout is Friday morning the 11th for another clean, glassy paddle. Everything else in this 16-day run has its little issues.
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.
