Table - best surf conditions forecast for Corvette over the next 16 days.
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s break down the next couple of weeks.
We’re going to have a bit of a dry spell at the start. The early stuff is small and messy, not worth paddling out for. The real highlight is shaping up for Thursday, July 16th, at Corvette. This is a reef break that loves a clean swell, and we’ve got a solid SSW groundswell coming in at 5ft with a 16-second period. The wind is light and cross-off, leaving the face glassy. The combined energy is strong (1337), so this is proper stuff for experienced surfers. The water temp is about normal for this time of year, nothing crazy.
The swell fades after that, and the wind turns cross-on by Friday, July 17th, making it choppy. The clear winner is that Thursday morning session.
The second week brings some serious power. Around Sunday, July 19th, we’ve got a big pulse of 6ft from the SSW with a very long 18-second period. That’s a ton of energy (2726), but the wind is ripping out of the SSE at 22 mph, creating a lumpy cross-shore mess. It’s a pass, unless you’re on a kite. The same goes for the next few days with strong winds. By Tuesday, July 21st, the wind backs off to a cross-off, and we’ve got 7ft from the S with a 12-second period. That’s a lot of power (1679), but it’s marginal and only for the brave.
The best bet in the second week is actually Wednesday, July 22nd, when the wind goes light and cross-off, with 5ft from the SW. The energy is moderate (588), and the conditions are clean. It’s a fun, manageable size for an intermediate.
So, the one to circle is the Thursday, July 16th morning at Corvette. That’s your standout. After that, it’s a waiting game for a clean, manageable window.
Rusty.

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.
