G'day, I'm Rusty. Let's have a look at the surf coming up for Conto Springs. That water temp is sitting at about 67.3°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, so you might not need the thickest rubber.
The kick-off is Monday the 6th of July, and it's not for the faint-hearted. We've got a solid 11.5ft swell out of the WSW, and with a 15-second period, this is proper groundswell. The offshore wind is clean and the combined energy is pumping at 5567, so it's game on for the experts. The trend holds into the afternoon too, with the swell bumping up to 13.1ft from the SW and an even longer 16-second period, pushing the energy up to 7641. Clean conditions again. This is the standout, for sure.
Tuesday the 7th keeps the quality high. The morning is glassy with an ESE breeze and a 11.5ft SW swell, period still at a juicy 16 seconds, energy at 6469. The afternoon sees the swell drop a touch to 9.8ft, with a cross-offshore breeze, but still clean and excellent for experienced surfers.
Wednesday the 8th is a bit of a mixed bag. The morning brings onshore wind and the afternoon is cross-shore, so the quality drops. The swell is still there at 11.5ft, but with a marginal forecast, you'd want to pick your tide.
Thursday the 9th is messy in the morning with a strong cross-onshore wind, but the afternoon cleans up with a cross-offshore breeze and a 8.2ft swell. Not the best, but ridable.
Friday the 10th is a write-off. Fresh onshore and cross-shore winds with lumpy conditions. Don't bother.
Now this is where it gets interesting again. Saturday the 11th has a big 16.4ft SW swell in the morning, period at 14 seconds, and clean cross-offshore wind. The energy rating is massive at 9778. This is expert territory, but for those who can handle it, it's going to be firing. Sunday the 12th is absolutely glassy in the morning with a 9.8ft SW swell, so if you can get out, the conditions will be perfect. The period drops to 14 seconds, but with glass, who cares.
Monday the 13th and Tuesday the 14th are glassy again, with 11.5ft SW groundswells and periods around 16-17 seconds. This is a long run of good, clean swell. Standout days for sure, especially the glassy mornings.
The wind turns foul from Wednesday the 15th through to Thursday the 16th, with strong onshore winds messing up the 8.2ft swell. Not worth paddling out.
Friday the 17th sees another massive pulse, with 16.4ft swells and energy readings over 10000, but the onshore wind is ruining it. It's going to be a washing machine.
Saturday the 18th is a whole different story. The swell hits 21.3ft with energy up at 16745, but the forecast says it's just too big for the break. The wind is onshore and messy. Only the crazies would consider it.
Things settle a bit through to Tuesday the 21st, but the wind stays onshore and the quality is poor. Not worth the drive.
Overall, the real standouts are Monday the 6th and Tuesday the 7th for the first classic swell, and then the glassy mornings of Sunday the 12th through to Tuesday the 14th are your best bets for a clean session.

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.
