Alright, this is Rusty. Let’s look at what’s happening at Boneyards.
We’ve got a solid stretch of surf ahead, but you need to time it right. The water temp is around 67°, which is a little warmer than usual for this time of year – not a big deal, but you’ll feel it. The first real action is Monday the 6th of July with a big 10ft swell out of the WSW. The energy is massive – (3952) – but that cross-off wind from the SE and the size mean this is for experienced surfers only. The wave period is 15 seconds, so it’s proper groundswell – good shape but long waits between sets. Not the best of the run though.
The standout window kicks off Tuesday the 7th. Tuesday morning has 8ft from the WSW with a 16-second period (3369 energy) and a cross-off wind – clean. Tuesday afternoon is the one I’d mark: 8ft, same WSW direction, but the wind turns clean offshore from the SSW. The waves will be glassy and lined up. Excellent for experienced surfers. Crowds are sometimes an issue, but for this quality, it’s worth it.
Wednesday the 8th morning has 8ft with a 17-second period (3767 energy) but a light cross-shore wind that’ll put a few bumps on it. Wednesday afternoon is a beauty: 10ft, WSW, 16 seconds (3915 energy), and clean offshore from the SSW. Big and powerful – expert only.
Thursday the 9th morning is pure magic. 8ft, WSW, 14-second groundswell, and glassy – dead calm wind. The energy is still high at (2350). This is likely the best session of the whole run.
Swell drops Friday the 10th to 5ft, but the wind stays clean – great for intermediates. Saturday the 11th morning is glassy again: 6ft, WSW, 14 seconds (1328 energy) with no wind. Beautiful.
Sunday the 12th has 6ft from the SW, 14 seconds (2244 energy), and a clean offshore wind – excellent for experienced surfers.
Monday the 13th keeps the quality going: 8ft, WSW, 16 seconds (3278 energy) with a clean offshore wind in the morning – size is up, so not for beginners.
Tuesday the 14th afternoon is glassy with 7ft, WSW, 14 seconds (1874 energy) – very good.
From Wednesday the 15th through Thursday the 16th, the wind turns nasty – strong onshore and near-gale. Blown out and messy. Don’t bother.
Friday the 17th sees a massive spike: 13ft from the WSW with 16 seconds – energy is (10832) – extreme power. The wind is cross-off so it’s clean, but this is huge and dangerous. Only for absolute experts.
Saturday the 18th has near-gale winds again – 37 mph cross-shore and cross-off. Poor conditions.
Sunday the 19th cleans up with a fresh offshore wind from the SSW, but the swell is back to 7ft, 13 seconds (1289 energy) – rideable.
Monday the 20th is similar: 6ft to 6ft, clean with a moderate offshore in the afternoon – very good for intermediates.
Tuesday the 21st finishes strong: 8ft, 16-second groundswell (3500 energy) with clean cross-off winds.
The best session without a doubt is Thursday the 9th at sunrise – glassy, 8ft groundswell, and clean as glass. The runner-up is Tuesday afternoon the 7th – offshore, lined up, and powerful. Get out there.
Rusty.

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