Alright, this is Rusty. Let’s be real with you – we’re looking at a pretty flat stretch here. The whole 16-day window is a bust. We’ve got a tiny pulse of swell right at the start on Friday the 3rd, but it’s paired with junk wind and tricky conditions. Honestly, there’s not a single recommended session in the whole run. Let’s break down the grim details.
The first bit of action, if you can call it that, is Friday morning, July 3rd, at Buggerru. We’ve got a 5 ft NW swell, period a short 8 seconds, and the combined energy is moderate at 353. The wind is a light cross-shore from the NNE at 6 mph, which is just enough to mess up the surface. It’s already marked as marginal, and the tide might be an issue. By the afternoon, the wind swings onshore from the NW at 12 mph, and the swell drops to 5 ft – chop city. Not worth paddling out.
From there, it’s a slow death. Saturday the 4th offers 4 ft in the morning with light cross-shore wind, but it’s still poor. Sunday the 5th has the closest thing to a glimmer: a glassy morning with 3 ft NW swell, but the period is down to 7 seconds and the energy is weak (69). That’s surfable in a “beggars can’t be choosers” kind of way, but it’s ordinary. The water temp is average for this time of year – nothing unusual.
After that, we hit a long dead zone. From Monday the 6th all the way through to July 18th, the swell barely registers. Heights hover around 0.3 ft to 2 ft, period drops to 4 or 5 seconds, and the combined energy is in the single digits or double-digit low (11, 16, 1, 2…). Winds are often glassy or light, but there’s simply no wave energy to work with. A few days have a tiny clean bump like on Saturday the 11th with cross-offshore wind, but with zero swell, it’s just flat.
For us here, this is a normal blank run. The spot is inconsistent anyway, and when the swell is this weak and short-period, the beach/pier setup doesn’t get a chance to come alive. There’s no standout session, no hidden gem. If you’re desperate, Sunday morning the 5th is your only nod, and that’s a long shot.
Keep the board in the car and wait for the forecasts to shift. It can’t stay this poor forever.

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.
Buggerru is 16 km (10 miles) from Iglesias. If you plan a holiday in Sardinia, look for hotels and other accommodation in Iglesias. Iglesias has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
