Alright, Rusty here. Let's have a look at the local stretch.
Well, truth be told, it's a pretty quiet picture on the whole. We've got a long, drawn-out spell of small surf ahead, so you'll need to manage your expectations. There's nothing that's going to get the heart pumping too hard. The first few days you could almost write off, with the odd knee-high ripple barely making a splash. The whole first week is pretty much a write-off for any decent wave riding.
Tuesday 7th and Wednesday 8th are flat and messy. Tiny 1ft swell from the west with weak energy (36 and 23), and the wind is either on it or cross-onshore. Not worth a second look.
Thursday 9th July you get a glassy morning with a 1ft west swell (29), but it's still tiny and the wave quality is poor. It's clean, but there's just nothing to ride.
We then move into a period of clean conditions from Friday 10th through to Sunday 12th July, with cross-offshore winds, but the swell drops even further. We're talking ankle-snappers at 0.3ft. The combined energy is pathetic, dropping to single digits at times. No go.
For the next week, from Monday 13th to Sunday 19th July, the story is the same. Tiny, weak west and southwest swells, rarely breaking 1ft. The combined energy just stays in the low double digits and single digits, mostly 5-25. There are some clean mornings, like Friday 17th and Sunday 19th July, but the waves are essentially flat. If you want to get wet, you're better off with a floaty.
The only faint glimmer is on the far edge of the window. Wednesday 22nd July sees a 1ft west-southwest swell with a bit more energy (28), but the wind is a moderate cross-onshore making it choppy. Not worth holding your breath for.
Honestly, for the next 16 days, Coombesgate Beach is a no-show. It's a beach and reef set-up that's fairly exposed, but with no swell to work with, there's nothing on offer. If the wind is howling on a bigger day this set-up might be interesting for a kite, but for a surfboard, you're out of luck. The water temp is about average for this time of year.
Keep an eye on the charts, but for now, find something else to do.
Rusty.
