The Lowdown
G’day, Rusty here, lookin’ at the next couple of weeks for Conto Springs. It’s a reef break that’s very consistent and exposed to the swell, and it’s got a real gem of a window coming up. The water is sitting at 67°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year.
We kick off Tuesday the 21st with solid 8ft SW groundswell, a long 14 second period, and a cross-off breeze. The combined energy is strong (2633). It’s clean, but at that size this is only for experienced surfers. Afternoon holds similar. Wednesday the 22nd is the standout of the first week. The morning brings 12ft SW swell with a very long 16 second period, cross-off wind, and the energy jumps to 5788. That’s exceptional quality for experts. The afternoon eases slightly but stays offshore and clean. Thursday the 23rd is worth a mention: the swell drops to 8ft but the afternoon turns glassy with light WNW wind, making it clean and smooth. Friday the 24th sees the swell drop to 5ft, and it gets a bit choppy with onshore wind. Saturday the 25th is poor with onshore wind. Sunday the 26th is a write-off – 13ft SW swell but a strong cross-onshore wind makes it messy and dangerous. Monday the 27th turns it around with a moderate offshore breeze and 10ft SW swell, clean and powerful. Tuesday the 28th is another good one: afternoon sees 8ft SW groundswell, clean with a cross-off breeze. Wednesday the 29th is a bit lumpy. Thursday the 30th has smaller 3ft SW groundswell but glassy conditions – a nice, relaxed session. Friday the 31st gets a bit choppy again.
Looking into the second week, the real standout is Monday the 5th of August. We’ve got a massive 16ft SW groundswell with a long 15 second period, and the energy is pumping at 11953. But the wind is cross-shore, making it lumpy. Still, for the experienced crew, that’s a serious beast. Tuesday the 6th of August holds 10ft SW groundswell with a very long 19 second period, but again cross-shore winds keep it lumpy. Wednesday the 7th of August goes downhill with strong onshore winds and messy conditions.
So, the undisputed best on offer is Wednesday the 22nd of July. That 12ft SW swell with the long period, cross-off wind, and clean conditions is about as good as it gets here. The next best is Monday the 27th of July, with that moderate offshore and 10ft SW swell. Keep in mind, with the long period swells, the reef setup here is ideal, but it’s a spot for experienced surfers only, especially when it’s over 8ft. Crowds can turn up sometimes, so keep an eye out.
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.
