Cobblestones Surf Forecast and Surf Report

G’day, Rusty here. Only Cobblestones is in the mix, and it’s a heavy reef for the advanced crew. Water temp is about 64°, pretty normal for the season.

Starting Monday the 14th, you’ve got a solid 13-foot SW groundswell (14 seconds) with SE wind at 16 mph cross-off, keeping it clean. Combined energy is 5602 – that’s a lot of power. Tuesday the 15th morning is cleaner: 10-foot SW swell (14 seconds), east wind at 6 mph offshore, glassy. Good for the experienced. Energy 4216. Tuesday afternoon gets a bit choppy, so hit it early.

Wednesday the 16th morning is 7-foot SW swell (13 seconds) with NE cross-off wind, clean enough. Energy 1865. That afternoon though – dead calm, NW wind at 0 mph, and 5-foot SW swell (13 seconds). Glassy, perfect, energy 1250. A quiet standout.

Thursday the 17th and Friday the 18th turn rough. Friday morning has a 10-foot WSW groundswell (17 seconds – very long period) with N wind at 19 mph cross-off, clean but big. Energy 5508. But the arvo brings a gale, onshore, and it’s blown out. Saturday the 19th through to the 22nd is mostly poor – onshore winds, rain, messy. Tuesday the 22nd arvo has a massive 13-foot WSW swell (14 seconds) with onshore wind, energy 12222, but it’s a no-go for surfing.

Then a gap of nasty days until Wednesday the 23rd morning: 16-foot WSW swell (13 seconds), cross-shore wind, energy 7542 – big and lumpy, experts only. The true standout is Saturday the 26th: 12-foot SW swell (16 seconds), energy 6451, and glassy with NE wind at 3 mph. That’s exceptional for experts. Sunday the 27th morning is also glassy with 8-foot SW swell (14 seconds), energy 2722, clean and fun. Monday the 28th morning has 8-foot SW swell (16 seconds) with cross-off NNE wind at 9 mph – another good window.

Cobblestones can get crowds sometimes, but with these sizes, the lineup should be for the dedicated crew. Best session: Saturday the 26th morning, hands down.

Rusty.
