The Lowdown
Alright, surfers, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s coming down the pipeline for Coastguard Beach.
To be straight with you, the next 16 days are looking pretty flat and sad for Coastguard Beach. There's a long stretch of poor surf conditions with no real standouts on offer. The first week is a write-off, with tiny, weak, and mostly messy waves. Thursday morning on the 30th of July has a bit of a pulse, with a 5ft swell from the S, but that’s got a 5-second period and a strong cross-offshore wind. The wave energy is moderate at 187, but it's just not going to shape up into anything rideable for a paddle board. The wind is strong enough that this setup might be more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing.
There’s a little bump in energy on Friday morning, the 31st of July. We’re looking at a 3ft swell from the E with a 9-second period, which is a bit more promising. The combined energy hits 304, which is solid, and the wind is a clean cross-offshore from the NNW. Still, the forecast says poor surf conditions, so it’s not going to be anything special. The water is around 68°, which is about average for the time of year.
The only other time we see a bit of size is on Tuesday, the 11th of August. We get a 4ft swell from the NE, but it’s a short 6-second period and the wind is a choppy cross-onshore. The energy is moderate at 122, but it’s going to be a messy, onshore affair. This one is really only for the dedicated, and maybe not even then.
Honestly, there’s no true standout here. The entire 16-day window is a big gap of poor to non-existent surf. For a spot like Coastguard, this kind of blank run is a bummer, but not totally unusual. The forecasts can change, but right now, keep your gear in the shed.
Rusty.

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.

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.
