Alright, Rusty here. Let’s talk about what’s on the menu at Conto Springs.
We’ve got a decent run of waves coming through, but there’s a bit of a wait before the good stuff shows up. It’s not all smooth sailing though; the first couple of days are pretty ordinary. Saturday the 4th is a write-off with a bumpy, onshore mess. Sunday the 5th isn’t much better with rain and lumpy conditions.
The real action kicks off from Monday the 6th of July. That morning we see a clean 12ft SW groundswell (combined energy of 5513), with a fresh offshore wind. It’s big and powerful, definitely one for the experienced crew only. Then Monday afternoon, it really lights up: a clean 13ft SW swell at 16 seconds, with moderate offshore wind. The combined energy is pumping at 6938, and it’s a standout session for experts.
Tuesday the 7th holds solid, with an 12ft SW swell on Tuesday morning under a light breeze, making for some clean, powerful lines. The energy is still strong at 6535.
But if you ask me, the absolute best of the bunch is Wednesday the 8th of July. That morning we get an 12ft SW groundswell with a 17-second period, a combined energy of 6323, and glassy conditions. That’s about as good as it gets at a reef like this—long-period SW groundswell, glassy, and offering up some proper walled-up faces for the experienced surfer. It’s a morning to circle on the calendar.
After that, the quality fades a bit through the rest of the week but remains surfable. Friday the 10th afternoon sees a big 16ft SW swell come in, but with strong cross-offshore wind and a short 11-second period, it’s more about raw power than finesse. That size is expert territory, and the short period will make it a bit unruly.
The second week calms down. We get a nice clean spell around Sunday the 12th and Monday the 13th of July, with clean offshore wind and solid 5ft to 10ft SW groundswell. Monday the 13th afternoon is a real gem: 8ft SW swell with glassy conditions—perfect for a more relaxed, fun session. From Tuesday the 14th onward, it gets choppy and onshore again, with only small windows of clean surf.
Keep in mind, Conto Springs is a reef break that’s very consistent, exposed to the SW, and works best with a solid WSW to SW swell. The water’s a touch warmer than normal for this time of year at 68°. With the crowds listed as sometimes, you won’t have the place to yourself when it’s good.
Overall, the standout is Wednesday the 8th of July morning. Get on it.
