Alright crew, Rusty here. Let’s break down what’s happening at Conto Springs. We’ve got a solid run of surf coming, but the wind is going to be the deciding factor.

We kick off on Monday the 6th of July with a big, powerful swell. It’s 12ft of WSW groundswell with a long 15-second period, packing some serious energy. The water is about 67°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year – a nice little bonus. The wind is a moderate offshore from the SE, so it’s clean and lined up. But listen, at 12ft, this is expert-only territory. The crowd can show up here sometimes, so if you’ve got the skills, Monday morning is a standout.

Monday afternoon the 6th, the swell pushes up to 13ft from the SW with a 16-second period and the energy is even bigger. The wind holds offshore from the SE, so the big-wave hunters are still in business.

Now, Tuesday the 7th is where it gets real special. The morning is glassy with the wind dropping right off from the ESE – basically flat calm. You’ve got an 12ft SW groundswell with that same long 16-second pulse. The conditions are *glassy*, so the wave faces will be like a mirror. This is the pick of the early period for anyone who can handle the size.

Tuesday afternoon the 7th, the swell drops a bit to 10ft, but it’s still SW with a 16-second period. The wind is a light cross-offshore, so it remains clean. Not the perfection of the morning, but still a very good session.

Wednesday the 8th has a split personality. The morning has a light onshore from the NNW - not great, but the swell is still solid at 12ft, WSW, with a 15-second period. By afternoon, it’s glassy again with a light offshore from the SW. That afternoon window on Wednesday is a quality pick.

We hit a rough patch Thursday the 9th and Friday the 10th. The wind swings onshore and cross-shore, making it choppy and messy. The swell drops in size and energy, so those are days to maybe sit out.

But hold on, Saturday the 11th and Sunday the 12th look like our next major standouts. Saturday morning the 11th, we’ve got a massive 13ft swell from the SW again, but this time the wind is a moderate cross-offshore from the SSW, keeping it clean. That’s another big, clean day for experts.

Sunday the 12th is the absolute cream of the crop. The morning has a 10ft SW swell and it’s clean. But the afternoon on Sunday the 12th is the one I’m circling: an 12ft SW swell, but with a *very* long 17-second period. That’s proper groundswell, and with a gentle cross-offshore breeze, those waves are going to have unreal shape and power. For a reef like Conto Springs, that long period is a dream. This is a true standout.

Things get a little messy again from Monday the 13th through to Wednesday the 15th with cross-shore winds and building onshore slop. Wednesday the 15th and Thursday the 16th are write-offs with fresh onshore winds and lumpy, poor conditions.

Keep an eye on Friday the 17th of July – we get a reset. A glassy morning with a light westerly, and a solid 10ft WSW swell with a long 15-second period. That’s back to clean, excellent surf.

The following week from the 18th onward has some decent swell, but the wind is a persistent cross-offshore to cross-shore. The best bet at the backend is Tuesday the 21st of July: a clear morning with an ENE cross-offshore breeze and a 10ft SW swell. That’s a clean, powerful morning session to end the run.

So, for the experts, Monday the 6th and Saturday the 11th are your big-wave days. For the best all-around conditions of shape, power, and glassy perfection, lock in Tuesday morning the 7th and Sunday afternoon the 12th.

Stay safe out there.
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.
