The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let's size up the next couple of weeks.
The only real window of opportunity is a short one on Monday, August 3rd. Clovelly Bombie, a reef setup, is the only spot worth a look. The water temp is about what you'd expect for this time of year.
Monday morning is the standout. There's a 4 ft swell from the SE with an 11-second period, packing a moderate 261 units of energy. The wind is a gentle 9 mph from the NNW, blowing cross-offshore and keeping the surface clean. The swell direction is a good match for the spot's optimum ENE direction. It's an advanced, inconsistent wave, so you'll need to be sharp and patient, but the quality is there.
Monday afternoon drops to 3 ft and 163 units of energy. Still clean with a light WNW breeze, but not as good.
From Tuesday, August 4th, onward, it's a long dry spell. The surf turns tiny and poor, with swell energy dropping to weak two-digit numbers and heights mostly under 2 ft. There's a brief bump in energy on the 12th, but it comes with a short-period, messy NE windswell and a cross-onshore wind – not worth getting wet for. The forecast is consistently poor for the next two weeks.
So, your one and only shot is Clovelly Bombie first thing Monday morning, August 3rd. Chase it if you can, because after that, it's a long, quiet stretch with no real surf on offer. The area just goes quiet, and that's not unusual here.
Rusty.

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