Table - best surf conditions forecast for Coombesgate Beach over the next 16 days.


Alright, pull up a stump and listen close. Rusty here, and I gotta be straight with ya – the next couple of weeks at Coombesgate Beach are lookin' real flat, real quiet. It's like the ocean went on holiday and forgot to leave a forwarding address.

The whole 16-day forecast is a long stretch of tiny, weak waves with poor conditions. We’ve got a solid run of "poor surf conditions" stamped all over it, from the start right up until the 22nd of July. For over a week and a half, you’re lookin' at swell heights mostly under 1ft. The combined energy is down in the dumps, barely crackin' double digits most days – we're talkin' 10 or 20 (weak) most of the time. The wind is often cross-off, which would be great if there was any swell to work with, but there isn't. It’s a real bummer.

The water is about average for the time of year.

Now, there's a flicker of hope. On the morning of Wednesday, the 22nd of July, things finally get a pulse. We see a jump to a 4.9ft swell from the west (230 moderate combined energy). The wind is a gentle breeze from the east-northeast, blowin' cross-off. It's still only a 7-second period, but the conditions are clean and it's labeled "surfable waves but very ordinary conditions". It's the best lookin' window we've got, but for a beach-and-reef setup, those short-period waves won't have much push or shape. Thursday the 23rd morning sees a 3.3ft west pulse with offshore wind from the east-southeast, which cleans it right up, but that 6-second period is a real short-chop, nothin' to get excited about.

Look, there’s not a single standout day here. The conditions never really come together. None of these are beginner-friendly for the most part because the swell is tiny, and when it gets near 4.9ft on the 22nd it's pickin' up a bit but still a far cry from a proper session. There are no gems to dig for. It’s a long, lean spell, and for an area like this, a blank run like this happens. Forecasts can change, so keep an eye out, but honestly? Right now, I'd be checkin' the wind forecast for a kite, because this setup right now looks more interesting for a kite session than a proper paddle.

Hang in there.

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.

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.
