Coffee Bay Point Surf Forecast and Surf Report

G’day, Rusty here, and we’ve got a solid 16-day window for Coffee Bay Point. This is a fairly consistent point break that handles a good SSE swell, and the coming days are packed with clean windows and some real standouts. The water’s sitting at 70°F, which is pretty much spot on for this time of year, so no surprises there.

The first real action kicks off Thursday morning, the 16th of July. It’s glassy with a light SSE breeze, and we’ve got a clean 5ft easterly swell pushing in at 11 seconds. The energy is moderate (587), and it’s looking like a fun, buttery morning. The wind is dead calm, so the surface will be silky. Thursday afternoon gets a bit more cross-on, so that morning window is the pick early on.

Friday the 17th is smaller and a bit crossed up, so not much to write home about. But then Sunday the 19th is where it starts to get exciting. Both morning and afternoon are clean, with a cross-off SSW breeze and a solid 6ft to 5ft SSE swell, period around 11 seconds. The energy is high (844 and 815), and the waves will be well-shaped. This is a real standout for the week.

The absolute best of the bunch, though, is Wednesday morning, the 22nd of July. It’s dead glassy, calm wind, and a chunky 6ft SSW groundswell with a 14-second period. The energy is strong (1465), and the conditions are set for excellent waves for experienced surfers. This is the one to clear your schedule for. The afternoon is okay, but that morning is pure magic.

We’ve also got a solid run from the 19th through the 22nd, with Tuesday the 21st also offering a clean 5ft SSW swell in the morning. Then things get a bit wild on the 23rd of July – Thursday – with a big 12ft SSW swell, period 13 seconds, and a fresh cross-off breeze. The energy is massive (4511), but that size is only for experts. The swell is coming from the optimum direction, so it’ll line up, but it’s a serious step up.

The second week is a mixed bag. The 24th and 25th are mostly onshore and messy, but then Tuesday the 28th of July has a nice morning window: a clean 4ft SSW swell with a very long 19-second period, cross-off breeze, and low energy (934). That’s a long-period groundswell, so it’ll be perfect for this point break – really smooth, long lines, but with longer lulls between sets. The 29th and 30th are mostly choppy or wet, so the 28th morning is the last clear standout.

There are a few gaps early on, but nothing too drastic – the surf picks up nicely by Sunday the 19th. Overall, it’s a promising run, with the 22nd of July morning being the true standout. Keep an eye on that big day on the 23rd if you’re an expert.

Rusty.
