The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on offer at Corvette. It’s a reef break, fairly consistent, and it picks up swell from the SSW – just what this spot likes.

We’ve got a bit of a slow start, but the fun kicks off on Friday, July 31st. Friday morning is looking sweet with a clean 3ft swell from the SSW, rolling in with a solid 14-second period. The wind is light offshore from the ENE, keeping things glassy. The water is sitting at 72°, which is bang on average for this time of year – nothing to worry about there. The combined swell energy is a solid moderate (696). This is the standout of the first few days – expect very good surf conditions. Friday afternoon deteriorates a bit with the wind swinging cross-offshore and the swell dropping slightly to 3ft, so make the most of the morning.

Saturday and Sunday (1st and 2nd of August) are a write-off. The wind is howling from the SSE and SE, blowing 19 to 22 mph, creating lumpy, cross-shore chop. The swell pushes up to 8ft on Sunday, but with that wind, it’s just a mess. This is more of a kite-surfing setup than a paddle session.

Monday, August 3rd, delivers the biggest swell of the period – 10ft from the S with a 12-second period. That’s expert territory, way too big for beginners. The wind is still strong cross-offshore, so it’s not totally blown out, but it’s a beast. The combined energy is very strong (2542 on Monday morning, peaking at 4538 Monday afternoon). Only for the very experienced.

Things settle down nicely by Tuesday, August 4th. The swell drops to 4ft from the SSW, with a very long 18-second period – proper groundswell. The wind is offshore from the E. This is a beautiful, clean wave, though that long period might make it a bit too straight for the beach break – it’ll be better for the reef. The energy is still moderate (1788). This is another real highlight.

The middle of the week (5th to 7th) sees the swell fade and the wind stays on it. Not much to write home about – small, cleanish waves but lacking punch.

Then we hit a golden window from Saturday, August 8th, through to Wednesday, August 12th. Saturday morning is glassy – wind from the S at only 3 mph – with a 3ft SSW swell. Perfect clean conditions. The energy is light (381), but for a small wave, it’ll be fun. The 11th and 12th are also looking excellent with light winds or glassy conditions, and a clean 3ft swell from the ESE. The 12th has a 12-second period on the afternoon, which will give it some shape. Multiple days of clean, small waves.

The forecast gets a bit shaky again from the 13th, with onshore winds building. But hold on – Friday, August 14th, has a real gem. The morning is glassy, with a 5ft swell from the SSW at 12 seconds. The combined energy is strong (901). This is deep into the forecast, so treat it with a bit of caution, but if it comes off, that’s the best wave of the whole run.

Overall, the best bets are the morning of Friday, July 31st, and the glassy morning of Friday, August 14th. The whole window from the 8th to the 12th is also very consistent and clean.

This is Rusty, signing off.

Information about the Corvette Surf forecast

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