Alright, grab a seat. Rusty here.
The next couple of weeks are looking pretty grim for surf around here. We’ve got a long stretch of nothing much happening before a brief, slightly better window shows up late in the period. It’s a classic summer flat spell, but the waiting game might just pay off.
We kick off Wednesday, July 8th, near Buggerru, a beach and pier setup, and honestly, it’s a tough start. The water is sitting at 78°F – that’s a huge 4°F warmer than usual for this time of year, which is a real standout. But that’s the only standout. There’s no swell to speak of, just small leftovers from the WNW at 0.7 ft with a period of 4 seconds. The combined swell energy is a measly 2 (weak). It’s a flat, glassy morning, but it’s not surfable. This flat spell is going to drag on.
We roll through Thursday and Friday, the 9th and 10th, and it’s more of the same. Tiny, weak swells from the WNW and NW, with heights barely tickling 2 ft to 2 ft and periods under 6 seconds. The combined energy bumps up to a still-weak 15-38, but the wind is messy – cross-shore to cross-onshore. The surf is poor.
The weekend and all of the following week, right through to July 19th, are a complete write-off. We're looking at a solid 12-day gap of flat to near-flat conditions. Swell heights hover around 0.3 ft to 1 ft, periods are short, and the combined swell energy never gets past a pathetic 18. There are a few glassy mornings (like Saturday the 11th and Tuesday the 14th) but with zero swell, it's just a lake.
Now, the only moment that even gets a mention is Monday, July 20th. Finally, some life. Early morning at Buggerru, we see a clean, southeast offshore wind at about 3 mph. A small swell from the NW rolls in at 4 ft with a 7-second period. The combined swell energy finally hits a moderate 113. The waves are surfable, but the report says the conditions are still "very ordinary." Still, compared to the rest of the run, this is the only game in town. Honestly, if the forecasts hold, this Monday morning window is your best – and only – real chance for a paddle.
The morning of Friday, July 23rd has a similar-sized swell, but the cross-shore wind makes it less attractive.
So, there you have it. A long, flat stretch, and then a single morning that might just be worth the wait. Keep an eye on it.
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.
