Table - best surf conditions forecast for Conto Springs over the next 16 days.
G’day, Rusty here. We’ve got a solid run of south-west swell on the way for Conto Springs, a reef setup that really fires when the direction lines up. The water temp is sitting about average for this time of year, nothing wild happening there.
The action kicks off Saturday morning, July 11th, with a chunky 10ft SW swell rolling in at a juicy 14 seconds – proper groundswell with good energy (2752). The wind is light and cross-off, so it’ll be clean despite the cloud cover. This is expert territory; that size and power isn’t for learners. Saturday afternoon holds the same energy, maybe a touch cleaner.
Sunday morning, July 12th, the swell bumps up to 13ft with a very long 18-second period, packing some serious power (8910). The wind is cross, so expect some texture on the face, but the raw energy is there for those who can handle the big, grinding lines. This is still for experienced surfers only.
A bit of a lull through the middle of the week. Tuesday afternoon, July 14th, is a standout, though – the wind goes glassy, and you’ve got a consistent 10ft SW swell with 14-second periods (3644). Clean, lined-up waves, but still pushing over the 8ft mark, so it’s experts only.
Saturday, July 18th, is a monster day, but I gotta warn you – we’re looking at 18ft SW swell with 17-second periods and massive energy readings (16889 and 17585). The wind is cross, but the swell is predicted to be too big for this break, even for the best. That kind of juice is more for charging mutant waves or even kite conditions, not your standard paddle session. The setup might look more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing.
From Sunday, July 19th, things settle back into the 13ft range with cross-off winds keeping it clean. Then into the following week, from Thursday, July 23rd, through to Sunday, July 26th, we hit a sweet patch of moderate offshore and clean conditions. The swell sits in the 7ft to 12ft range with solid 14- to 15-second periods, and the energy is strong (up to 4676). This is the best window on offer – the standout would be Friday morning, July 24th, with 12ft SW swell, moderate offshore winds, and clean lines. It’s still too big for beginners, but for intermediate to advanced surfers, that’s the one to circle.
Signing off, 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.

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.
