Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s break down what’s cookin’ for Conto Springs.
We’ve got a good stretch of south-west groundswell lined up over the next couple weeks, but the wind’s gonna be the main player. The water’s at 68°F which is a touch warmer than usual for this time of year – a nice little treat.
The first proper standout is Monday morning, July 6th. We’ve got a solid 12ft swell from the WSW (that’s the sweet spot for this reef), and it’s a long-period groundswell at 16 seconds. But the real magic is the clean offshore breeze from the SE. The combined energy is solid at 6116, so there’s proper push behind it. This is going to be clean, powerful waves all morning.
Come Monday afternoon, it steps up. The swell bumps to 13ft from the SW, still with that 16-second period, and the energy jumps to 7568. The offshore wind hangs in. This is strictly for the experts, but the quality is exceptional. A pumping day.
Tuesday morning, July 7th is glassy perfection with a light SE offshore. The swell is still a meaty 12ft from the SW (6388 energy). Clean, lined up, and a proper treat for experienced surfers.
After Tuesday afternoon, things get rough. A few days of onshore and cross-offshore winds bring the quality right down.
But then Sunday, July 12th comes back swinging. The morning sees a clean offshore from the SSE, with a 10ft swell from the SW at 13 seconds. The energy is moderate at 4687. The afternoon is a real gem though – the period stretches out to a very long 17 seconds, the swell lifts to 12ft from the SW, and the energy hits 6802. That is exceptional, clean groundswell for experienced surfers.
Monday, July 13th has a sneaky good moment. The morning is messy with a crosswind, but the swell is a big 13ft from the SW (7410 energy). The real prize is the Monday afternoon: glassy conditions with a 5 mph north-west wind, and the swell is still a solid 12ft from the SW at 16 seconds. That glassy window will be pure magic.
From Tuesday, July 14th onward, the wind turns nasty. A long run of onshore gales from the north-west and west-north-west ruins the surf. Then a massive pulse hits on July 18th – 20ft from the WSW with energy over 19000. That’s just too big and the cross-shore wind makes it a mess. Not for paddle surfing.
The best bets? Lock in Monday July 6th through Tuesday July 7th, and keep both eyes on Sunday July 12th and Monday July 13th afternoon for that glassy window. It’s going to be big, clean and powerful. Get on it.
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.
Conto Springs is 106 km (66 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.
