The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Gotta be straight with you—this stretch coming up at Buggerru is a real flat spell for the most part. The charts are showing days of tiny, gutless mush with hardly any energy behind it. We're looking at a long wait for anything that even gets close to rideable.
We start off on Friday the 31st of July, and honestly, it's flat. Nothing doing. The swell is barely a wobble – 0.7ft from the NNW with a period of just 3 seconds. Combined wave energy is a measly (1). The wind is light but cross, making it messy. That theme sticks around right through the weekend and into the start of the week. You've got mornings that are clean but with zero swell, and afternoons that get chopped up by a light breeze.
Monday the 3rd has a little clean patch in the morning with a light offshore, but the waves are still only 0.3ft. It's a non-event. Tuesday the 4th is glassy flat in the morning – beautiful to look at but no surf. This dry spell rolls on and on.
We finally see a blink of life around Wednesday the 5th. The swell pushes up to 2ft from the WSW with a 7 second period, and the combined energy reaches (27) – that's still very weak, but at least there's a pulse. The morning is glassy, so if you were desperate, maybe you could find a knee-high bump. Still, it's poor. The next few days follow the same pattern: tiny slivers of swell with a glassy window or a clean cross-off, but nothing that would get a surfer out of bed.
Now, hold onto your board... Tuesday the 11th of August finally brings a real change. Overnight, the swell jumps to 4ft from the NW with a 6 second period, and the combined energy climbs to (130) – that's a moderate energy event compared to the rest of this period. The morning of the 11th is glassy, and with the swell size and a clean window, this is your best bet. It's not perfect, but it's the only wave on offer that could break head-high. The afternoon gets cross-onshore, though, so make the morning session. Wednesday the 12th morning is also worth a look, with a light offshore wind (ESE), 3ft NW swell, and clean conditions. The energy drops to (74) but it's still a damn sight better than the rest.
After that, it fades again. Thursday the 13th has a tiny clean morning, but it's back to knee-shredding flatness by Friday the 14th and Saturday the 15th. For a break like Buggerru that's already inconsistent, this is a pretty ordinary run. The standout is the morning of the 11th of August – that's the one to circle on the calendar if you're hanging out for a paddle.
Rusty.

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