Cozies and Geeries Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright, Rusty here, checking in with the outlook for the Cozies and Geeries stretch.

Right off the bat, we’ve got a solid run of swell heading our way. The first real action kicks off on Tuesday, the 8th, and it’s not for the faint of heart. We’re looking at a serious groundswell from the west-southwest, a solid 8ft, with a period of 16 seconds. That’s a lot of energy in the water (3256). The wind is offshore from the southeast, keeping things clean. The water temp is sitting at 64°, which is pretty normal for this time of year. This is expert territory, though. That size and power is going to be a handful for the average punter. The setup is a reef and point, so that long period swell should wrap in nicely, but be ready for some hefty sets.

Wednesday the 9th backs off a touch, with 6ft to 6ft from the same direction. Wind is cross-offshore, so it’s still clean. This is a step down in size, but still a powerful swell (1753-1480). Still a proper wave for experienced surfers.

Thursday the 10th, the swell drops to 4ft. The wind goes a bit funky in the morning, but the afternoon looks alright with a light south breeze. It’s a drop in power (841), but you might find a few fun ones if you’re patient.

Friday the 11th gets weird. The swell direction shifts to the west, and the period jumps to 19 seconds—very long period. The wind is messy, cross-onshore in the morning, then switching to a straight offshore from the northwest in the afternoon. That long period at a point break can be magic, but it can also be tricky. The energy is still high (1532-1839), but the conditions are fighting it.

Saturday the 12th and Sunday the 13th look pretty average. Choppy, cross-onshore winds, and lumpy waves. The swell is still there, but it’s not worth getting excited about.

Now, here’s the standout. Monday the 14th. We’ve got a 8ft, WSW groundswell with a 14-second period, and the wind goes glassy. Glassy. That’s a rare treat. The energy is pumping (2056), and the conditions will be perfect. The water is going to be clean, smooth, and the waves will have plenty of push. The reef and point setup will really shine. This is the session to circle on the calendar. Crowds are possible, so get there early.

Tuesday the 15th is still very good, with 7ft to 7ft and clean conditions. Another solid day.

The swell fades a bit mid-week, and by the 18th, we’re looking at a messy, windy pattern. Then it gets interesting again. Saturday the 19th sees a big, lumpy, short-period swell hammered by strong onshore winds. It’s a write-off for paddle surfing. That’s kite-surfing territory.

But hold on. Sunday the 20th, Monday the 21st, and Tuesday the 22nd look absolutely massive. We’re talking 13ft, then 12ft from the west-southwest, with very long 18-second periods. The energy numbers are off the charts (10053, 8902). The wind is cross-offshore, keeping it clean. This is for experts only. You’ll be on the biggest, cleanest waves of the forecast. The water will be a washing machine of power. That Sunday the 20th and Monday the 21st are the two true standouts for the big-wave crew. The long period at the point break will be a sight to see.

The final few days fade back down to more manageable 7ft-6ft, with okay conditions.

So, to sum it up: the best bets are Monday the 14th for the glassy, clean, solid swell, and the big-wave window of Sunday the 20th through Monday the 21st for the absolute monsters. The rest is a mixed bag of clean and choppy.

Rusty.
