Alright, this is Rusty. Let's be real: we're looking at a flat spell that just won't quit. The only spot in the game for the next 16 days is Coastguard Beach, and honestly, it's a tough watch. The water is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, coming in at 66°F, but that's about the only highlight.
The whole forecast period is a long, flat gap. There's nothing to get excited about for the first few days. From Friday, July 3rd, right through the weekend, it's tiny—just 0.7ft—with a little bit of energy from the ESE. It’s a beginner-friendly, consistent spot, but with that size, you're barely getting a ripple. The winds are mixed, sometimes offering a clean face, but it’s just not enough to push you around.
We get a little spike of energy on Tuesday, July 7th, with the swell bumping up to 4ft from the E. The combined energy hits 114, which is at least moderate, so there's some push. But the period is a short, choppy 6 seconds, and the wind is howling onshore. By Wednesday, July 8th, the swell hits 5ft with a combined energy of 330, which is strong. But again, it's a messy, short-period swell (8 seconds) hammered by a strong cross-onshore wind. This setup is way more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing. It's too big for beginners and the quality is destroyed by the wind.
After that, it fades back into the doldrums. The rest of July 9th through the 18th is a lot of 0.7ft to 2ft surf with weak energy readings in the teens and thirties. There's a moment of glassy conditions on Friday, July 10th, but with only 0.7ft on offer, it's a lake. There's a late pulse around July 15th and 16th with 4ft to 4ft from the S, and a combined energy of 239 on the 16th, but the wind is either straight onshore or cross-off with a very short period, making it a messy, frustrating paddle.
Bottom line: there are no good surf options in this 16-day window. Coastguard Beach is the only game in town, but every single entry says "poor surf conditions." This is a flat spell. It's not unusual for the area, but it's a bummer. The forecasts can change, so keep an eye out, but for now, leave the boards at home.

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.

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.
