The Lowdown
G’day, Rusty here, and I’ve got the goods for the next 16 days at Corners. This one’s a reef setup, and it’s got a bit of a story to tell—mostly a quiet start, then a couple of moments that’ll get your heart racing.
Right now, the outlook kicks off from Wednesday 22 July, but don’t get too excited. We’ve got a long stretch of nothing special. Wednesday through Friday is all small, weak swell—0.7ft to 1ft from the SW or SSE, with cross-off winds. The combined energy is pathetic, barely breaking 17 (17) on the morning of the 22nd. It’s glassy and clean, but there’s no push. You’d be better off waxing your board at home.
That changes a bit on Saturday 25 July. The swell lifts to 4ft to 5ft from the SSE, with a 10-second period. The energy jumps to 337-361 (337-361), and the winds are light and cross-off. It’s not world-class, but it’s the first real surfable pulse. Sunday 26 July stays clean but the swell drops a touch, and by Monday 27 July we see a 3ft S swell with 9 seconds and energy at 226 (226). It’s clean, but nothing to write home about.
Now, the standout window is Tuesday 29 July. We get a 10ft S swell with a 11-second period, and the energy slams to 2297 (2297) in the morning. That’s a solid groundswell, and for a reef break like Corners, that’s pure magic. The wind is cross-off and moderate, so it’ll be a bit bumpy, but the power is there. This is only for experienced surfers—10ft is meaty, and the long period means it’ll jack up and hold its shape. The best session is likely the morning; the afternoon gets a fresh cross-shore that’ll chop it up.
Then it gets wild. The end of the forecast period, from Tuesday 4 August onward, shows massive swell—28ft to 21ft from the SE and S, with 14-second periods and energy readings over 16000 (16000). That’s massive, but the file is clear: the swell is predicted to be too big for this break. The wind and tide are favorable, but unless you’re a chartered big-wave tow-in crew, steer clear. It’s too big for even experts.
The overall pick: Saturday 25 July for a clean, fun session, and Tuesday 29 July morning for the real power. The water temp is about average for the time of year, nothing unusual. Crowds at Corners can be often, so expect company on the good days.
Stay safe, and I’ll catch you in the lineup.

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