G’day, Rusty here. Gotta be straight with you – the outlook for Coastguard Beach through the next few weeks is a real flat spell, no two ways about it. Don’t bother waxing up just yet. The entire 16-day run kicks off with nothing but dud after dud, and it stays that way.
We’ve got a long gap of quiet conditions from Wednesday the 8th all the way through to Tuesday the 21st of July. That’s nearly two weeks with no surf worth paddling for. The early days are a write-off: Wednesday morning the 8th sees messy 5 ft wind swell out of the NE, period a short 7 seconds, and a cross-breeze out of the NNE at 22 mph. Combined wave energy is moderate at best (268), but the wind kills it, leaving lumpy cross-chop. Water temp is sitting at 69°F, which is a solid 4°F warmer than normal for this time of year – that’s much warmer than usual, so if you’re just having a dip, it’s fine, but for surfing? Forget it. That afternoon the swell drops to 4 ft, still onshore-ish. The rest of the month stays tiny – we’re talking 1.0 ft to 2 ft all week, with periods barely cracking 8 seconds. Wind is mostly cross-off or clean, but there’s simply no energy to work with; the combined energy numbers sit between 12 and 44, which is weak stuff.
Even the latter half of the window, from the 21st into the 23rd, offers nothing. Morning of Tuesday the 21st is glassy but that swell is just 0.3 ft – it’s a puddle. Then Wednesday the 22nd shows a bit more size, 5 ft out of the S with period 6 to 7 seconds, but it’s cross-onshore and choppy with combined energy hitting 156 to 206 (moderate). Still, the wind and short period lock it into poor surf conditions, not a single recommendation across the whole file. With Coastguard Beach being a consistent beginner-friendly spot, a blank run this long means it’s just a quiet spell for the area. Could change, but right now it’s a total bust.
Rusty.

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