The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s coming our way.

We’ve got a solid run of swell lining up for Conto Springs, but it’s a mixed bag of conditions. The next few days are a bit of a write-off thanks to onshore winds, but hang in there, because the end of the week and into the weekend is where the magic happens.

Tuesday afternoon kicks things off with a solid 10 ft SW groundswell (period 14 seconds) and a light cross-off breeze. The water is a touch warmer than normal at 67°, and the combined energy is pumping at 4207. This is excellent, but it’s one for the experienced crew only – that’s a powerful, straight-up reef break. Wednesday is a step down with a messy cross-shore wind and a 8 ft SW swell, dropping to 8 ft by the afternoon. The conditions are marginal, so I’d give it a miss. Thursday is pretty much a no-go with onshore winds and rain, and Friday morning is a total blowout with 18 mph NW winds.

Now, the real standout window begins Saturday 1 August. The morning has a 16 ft SW groundswell (15 seconds) with a gentle offshore ESE breeze. The combined energy is a massive 10663. This is exceptional, but it’s expert-only territory. The afternoon holds at 15 ft with the same offshore flow. This is the best on offer for the first week – clean, powerful, and heavy. Just be aware, crowds are sometimes a thing here, and for a wave this good, you’ll have company.

Sunday 2 August drops to 10 ft, but the wind goes cross-shore, making it a bit lumpy. The following week has a few more promising pulses. Wednesday 5 August shows a 10 ft SW swell with a cross-off breeze in the morning, but the afternoon is the absolute standout: 15 ft SW groundswell (17 seconds) with glassy conditions. The energy hits 11190. That’s a dream session if you can get it. After that, a big southerly swell arrives, but the wind is too strong for paddle surfing – honestly, that setup looks more interesting for kite surfing than a standard session.

The second week has a couple of calls, but they’re less certain. The long-range outlook for Monday 10 August shows a solid 13 ft SSW swell with a clean cross-off wind, but it’s a week and a half out, so keep an eye on it. By Tuesday 11 August, the swell drops right back to 6 ft S swell, which is cleaner but much smaller.

So, for the best: nail that Saturday 1 August morning for the big, clean, offshore swell, or hold out for the glassy perfection on Wednesday 5 August afternoon. Both are standouts, but the 5th is a bit further out, so check back closer to the date.

Rusty.

Information about the Conto Springs Surf forecast

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