The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here again. Let’s break down what’s on offer at Coastguard Beach in imperial terms.
Right now and for the next week, it’s grim. From Friday the 24th through Wednesday the 29th of July, the waves are small, the wind is messy, and surf quality is junk. You’re looking at knee-high slop, cross-shore or onshore breezes, and a lot of frustration. Not a single session worth chasing.
Then, on Thursday the 30th of July, things finally flip. We get a clean, offshore wind from the west at about 6 mph, and a solid 5 ft northeast swell rolling in. The combined energy is moderate (283). That’s the best wave in the outlook – head-high and clean. By Thursday afternoon, it gets proper glassy with a light southwest breeze, the swell easing to about 4 ft from the ENE, but still packing good energy (269). That’s your window. Paddle out then.
After that, Friday the 31st has a small leftover pulse in the morning, around 3 ft, but it’s fading. From there on into the first week of August, it’s flat and breezy. A few clean-looking mornings, but wave heights are under 2 ft. Nothing to get excited about.
So to sum it up: Thursday the 30th is the only standout. Get on it, because the rest of the forecast is a snooze.

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.
