The Lowdown

G’day, Rusty here. We’ve got a serious run of swell on the way for Conto Springs, but it’s gonna be a mixed bag—plenty of size, but the wind is gonna be a battle for most of it. The water is sitting at 67°F, which is a couple of degrees warmer than usual for this time of year, so that’s a nice little bonus.

The first decent window kicks off Saturday morning, August 1st. We’re looking at a solid 13ft SW groundswell, with a 14-second period, and the wind is cross-offshore from the SSW at 12 mph. That’s clean. The wave energy is pumping at 6932 (moderate to strong). It’s a touch tricky with tide, but the shoulders will be there for an intermediate. Saturday afternoon, the swell jumps to 15ft from the SW, period 16 seconds, and the cross-off wind holds. The energy kicks up to 10594 (strong). That’s the standout of the first weekend—clean, powerful, and lined up. Crowds are possible here, so get out early.

Sunday the 2nd drops off a bit. Morning sees 10ft SW swell with a 13-second period and a cross-shore breeze from the NNE. It’s clean-ish but the energy drops to 3605. Afternoon gets smaller, 8ft, and the wind turns cross-on from the NNW. It’s still surfable but not top shelf.

Monday the 3rd is down to 7ft to 8ft SW swell, with light cross-on winds. The energy is weak (1823 to 2748). It’s okay for a cruise, but nothing to write home about.

Now, Tuesday the 4th is the real standout for the first week. Morning session: 12ft SW groundswell, 17-second period, and the wind is light and cross-off from the SSW at 6 mph. The energy is 7947 (strong). The forecast calls it exceptional for experts—that’s clean, long-period lines at a reef break, and the offshore wind will have them peeling. This is the pick of the whole forecast. The afternoon gets a bit lumpy with a cross-shore, so make the most of the morning.

Wednesday the 5th sees 15ft SW swell, but the wind is onshore from the NW at 12 mph. It’s messy. Thursday the 6th is a write-off—25 mph onshore winds from the WNW, poor surf. Friday the 7th, the swell is 15ft to 16ft SW, but the wind is cross-on to onshore, so it’s lumpy. Skip it.

Heading into the second week, things get wild. Saturday the 8th: 20ft to 21ft WSW swell, strong cross-off wind from the SSW at 28 mph. The energy is massive (13420 to 17312). The swell is too big for this break—expert only, and even then, it’s sketchy. Sunday the 9th is the biggest day: 25ft SW swell, 18-second period, energy at 36495 (very strong). Again, too big for Conto Springs. The wind is cross-off but it’s a beast.

Monday the 10th through Wednesday the 12th, the swell stays between 15ft and 21ft, but the wind is onshore or cross-on from the west, making it lumpy and messy. Thursday the 13th drops to 8ft SW swell, but the wind is cross-on and choppy. Friday the 14th and Saturday the 15th are a mess—strong onshore winds, poor conditions.

If you’re an expert, the Tuesday August 4th morning is your golden ticket. For everyone else, the Saturday August 1st afternoon is the best clean, powerful option. The rest of the run is either blown out or too big.

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.
