The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s cut to the chase – it’s gonna be a lean couple of weeks at Coombesgate Beach. We’re staring down a long stretch of almost nothing.
Right now and for the next week and a half, it’s flat as a pancake. Swell is all under 1ft, mostly from the west, with nothing to ride. The water is at 64°, which is much warmer than normal, but that’s the only highlight. The easterly wind keeps it glassy, but with no waves, it doesn't matter. The first real hope doesn’t show up until Sunday, July 26th.
On the morning of the 26th, we finally get a little bump, with waves around 4-5ft from the west. A light offshore breeze from the ESE will keep the surface clean. But the period is a short 7 seconds, so it’s gonna be a weak, jumbled windswell. The energy is moderate (184), but it’s not going to be great. The afternoon looks similar, with a bit more size at about 5ft and a clean cross-off breeze.
Monday, July 27th is the one to circle. The morning is okay, but the afternoon is the real deal. We’ll have 4-5ft of west swell with a slightly better 9-second period, and a gentle cross-off breeze from the NE. The energy jumps up to 318 (moderate), and the conditions are clean. This is the one session in the whole 16 days that looks worth paddling out for. It’s a beach-and-reef setup, so don’t expect perfection, but it’s the best you’ll get.
After that, the swell drops off fast through the 28th and 29th, with onshore winds and chop ruining things.
So, don’t hold your breath. The only real window is Monday afternoon on the 27th. If you can make it, you’ll score some clean, fun waves. The rest of the time, you’re better off doing something else.
Rusty.

Information about the Coombesgate Beach Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Coombesgate Beach provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Coombesgate Beach can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Coombesgate Beach 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 (Coombesgate Beach) 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 Coombesgate Beach 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.
