Alright gang, Rusty again, translating this into feet and degrees for those who think in imperial.

First, the bad news. There’s a long drought coming. Starting Monday the 6th of July, Corona Del Mar Jetty is looking at a tiny 2ft SSW swell with onshore wind. That combined energy is weak to moderate, and the conditions are just poor. That stretches on and on. On the 7th, we get a bump to about 3ft, but with long period (18 seconds) and marginal tide issues. The water is about 67°F, dead average for the season.

The quiet spell runs right through the 12th and 13th. Monday the 13th afternoon is a small break in the clouds – a 3ft SSW groundswell with a light WNW offshore breeze. That will look smooth. They’re calling it “expect good surf conditions.” It’s not pumping, but it’s clean. After that, Tuesday the 14th drops back to 2ft and stays there. Wednesday to Friday the 17th is even worse – 1ft to 2ft – with weak energy. The period gets long (up to 19 seconds on Friday morning the 17th), which at a beach break like this means long lulls and waves that just stand up and collapse.

Now, the only real standout, and I mean the only one, is Sunday the 19th. We see a decent 5ft SSE swell rolling in. The combined energy jumps to 1082 – that’s some proper power. The period is a solid 15 seconds. The wind is light from the SSW, so it’s onshore in the morning and cross-onshore later, so it won’t be pristine, but for a confident surfer, that’s the best wave in the window. It’s a marginal forecast, but it’s the one worth aiming for. Crowds are likely here, so if it looks good, you better bring your competitive edge.

Other than that, the whole 16-day run is mostly flat or messy. You’d be better off with a kite more often than not. Sorry, folks.

Rusty.

Information about the Corona Del Mar Jetty Surf forecast

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