Cozies and Geeries Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright folks, Rusty here with a look at what's coming our way. We've got a bit of a mixed bag on the cards, but there are some moments of pure magic if you're willing to wait.

The first few days aren't anything to write home about. The window kicks off on Thursday the 30th with Cozies and Geeries seeing a 4ft groundswell from the WSW, but a cross-onshore wind is messing it up. The wave energy is moderate (643), but it's just not clean. That pattern holds into Friday the 31st, with the swell building but wind getting worse. Not worth paddling out.

The first real standout comes in on Saturday the 1st of August. Get ready for a ripper of a morning. We've got a strong 8ft groundswell from the WSW, with a good 15-second period between sets. The real story is the offshore SSE wind, which will have the lineup clean as a whistle. The wave energy is solid (2381), and this is excellent, powerful surf for experienced surfers. It’s big, so leave the foamie at home. The afternoon stays clean with a cross-off wind and the swell holding. This is the pick of the first week.

Sunday the 2nd is another good one, especially the afternoon session. The swell drops a touch to 6ft but the wind goes glassy. That's a rare treat – clean, 6ft, and glassy. Get out there.

From Monday the 3rd you get a few more clean days with smaller 5ft swell, before things get a bit moody on Tuesday the 5th with the arrival of another 8ft swell and some light rain. Wednesday the 5th of August looks excellent again for the experienced crew, with a clean 8ft offshore swell and a long 16-second period.

Around August 7th and 8th, the wheels come off. We get a massive 15ft of raw WSW power, but it’s accompanied by gale-force winds. That’s not for surfing; that’s kite-surfing territory, or just staying home. The swell energy hits well over 5000, but the conditions are unsurfable.

There is a big gap in quality after that, and then we look to the second week. The 9th of August looks clean and solid at 8ft for the experts again.

But the real excitement is for the middle of the second week. On Tuesday the 11th of August, there's a solid 10ft, 16-second groundswell that looks promising but a bit mixed. The real beast shows up on the 12th and 13th of August. We’re talking a massive 15ft groundswell from the west with a very long 19-second period, and the energy is off the charts (15,100). The winds go clean and cross-off. This is huge, deep water swell, and the reports say it might even be *too big* for this break, so only the most experienced chargers on the biggest boards will even consider it. It’s a very promising but long-range forecast, so don't book the plane tickets just yet. The morning of Friday the 14th of August also looks exceptional for experts, with a clean 13ft groundswell from the SW and glassy, offshore winds, but again, you need to know what you're doing.

So, to wrap it up: the standout is the morning of Saturday the 1st of August for that classic, clean 8ft swell, and for the big-wave crew, keep your eyes on Wednesday the 12th of August for a possible session of a lifetime.

Stay stoked,
Rusty
