The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s get into it for Cobblestones. This is a reef break that needs a specific approach, and we’ve got a long window ahead.

Right off the bat, the first week is a write-off. The swell is absolutely pumping, but it’s way too much for this spot. We’re talking 23-foot to 25-foot of SW swell on Saturday the 8th, with howling 28 to 31 mph cross-onshore winds. The wave energy is bonkers – (21895) on Saturday morning, (26930) in the afternoon. This isn’t surfable for anyone; it’s a washing machine. This continues through Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday with massive swell and strong onshore winds. The water temp is sitting at 68°, which is much warmer than normal for this time of year, but you won’t feel it through the wind chill.

The real standout, and the only window I’d get excited about, is Friday the 14th. That morning, we’ve got a clean 12-foot swell from the SW, with a long period of 16 seconds. The wind is a light 6 mph cross-offshore from the NNE. That’s prime. The energy is still strong at (6461), but the conditions are clean. This is expert territory with that size and that long period, so it’s for the experienced crew only. The afternoon holds up too, with an 12-foot swell and a light cross-off from the North, though the energy drops a bit (4763). After that, the quality drops back into marginal territory.

The following week is a mixed bag. Saturday the 15th and Sunday the 16th offer some clean but smaller waves in the 10-foot to 12-foot range, with light offshore winds. Then it gets blown out again from Monday the 17th on, with rain, strong winds, and more oversized swell, peaking at 20-foot on the 23rd with fresh cross-onshore winds. This is a long stretch of poor quality.

So, for the whole 16 days, there’s really only one standout: Friday the 14th. It’s the only day where the stars align for a clean, powerful session at Cobblestones. Be patient, wait for that Friday window, and you’ll be rewarded.

Rusty out.

Information about the Cobblestones Surf forecast

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

Cobblestones is 85 km (53 miles) from the city of Bunbury. If you plan a holiday in Margaret River, look for hotels and other accommodation in Bunbury. Bunbury has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
