The Lowdown
Alright, let’s chat about Buggerru over the next couple of weeks. It’s a pretty slow start, so don’t rush down there just yet.
First thing – the water’s a warm 83°F, which is a massive 7°F warmer than normal for this time of year. That’s really unusual, so you’ll be in bathwater for sure.
There’s a huge gap with no real surf to start. The first decent window shows up on the morning of Monday, July 27th. Swell hits 6 ft from the NW with a 8-second period, and the energy sits at a moderate 430. Light cross-off winds from the SSE keep things clean. It’s not a world-beater, but after all that flatness, it’s the first sign of life. This spot can get busy, so expect a crowd.
That Monday afternoon is the biggest of the run – 8 ft from the NW, period 9 seconds, and strong energy at 1234. That’s real size and strictly for experts. Moderate rain and an ENE cross-off breeze keeps it clean, but you need to know your limits.
Tuesday morning, July 28th, cleans right up with glassy conditions and a dropping 4 ft from the NW (8-second period, energy 193). It’s smaller and nicer, but still just ordinary surfable stuff, nothing to write home about.
After that, it’s back to tiny dribbles and flat spells, most days under 2 ft. Some mornings are glassy, but there’s no energy to work with. Buggerru is inconsistent by nature, and this forecast shows that plainly.
Bottom line – Monday afternoon (July 27th) is the standout if you’re an experienced surfer after the biggest waves. Monday morning (27th) is your clean, smaller option for the crew who want something manageable. Beginners – this stretch is not for you.

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.
