Cozies and Geeries Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Righto, Rusty here. Let’s talk about what’s on the cards for your local patch.

The big picture this week is a mixed bag, with some punchy swell on the way but a lot of wind to work through. The first few days are a write-off, honestly. Saturday and Sunday look pretty ordinary, with howling onshore winds and lumpy, poor surf. The water temp is sitting at about 65.7°, which is average for this time of year, so no surprises there.

Come Monday the 27th, things start to settle. We’ve got a clean cross-off breeze and some waist-to-chest high swell at Cozies and Geeries, pushing in from the WSW at 7.5 ft with a solid 13-second period. The combined energy is moderate (1651), and while the quality is only marginal, it’s a massive step up from the weekend. Monday afternoon stays clean with 6.6 ft surf.

Tuesday the 28th is where we see a real standout. Morning is clean with 5.6 ft swell, but the true magic happens in the afternoon. The wind drops to glassy – dead calm – and you’ve got clean 4.9 ft waves from the WSW at 14 seconds. Combined energy is moderate (1058). This is the best window of the first week, and it’s perfect for experienced surfers looking for lined-up, clean faces.

Wednesday the 29th offers another good session in the afternoon with a very long 17-second period groundswell at 4.6 ft and clean cross-off winds. The energy is solid (1125). Thursday and Friday are a bit messy with onshore winds, though the swell stays consistent.

The second week starts promising. Saturday the 1st of August sees offshore winds and a solid 6.2 ft WSW swell at 16 seconds in the morning, cleaning up further to 5.6 ft in the afternoon with moderate offshore breeze. The combined energy is moderate to strong (1762 and 1313). This is a good, clean weekend session for experienced surfers.

Sunday the 2nd is smaller but clean, with 3.6 ft to 3.3 ft of long-period swell. Monday the 3rd and Tuesday the 4th are a total loss with strong onshore winds and blown-out conditions, so give it a miss.

The real standout of the entire forecast window is Saturday the 8th. The morning is glassy – dead calm – with a solid 11.5 ft of W swell at 14 seconds. That’s a lot of water, so only for experienced surfers. The combined energy is strong (4634). It’s a powerful, clean swell at Cozies and Geeries. The afternoon stays clean with cross-off winds and 8.2 ft surf. Sunday the 9th keeps the quality high with a clean 8.2 ft WSW swell in the afternoon. This is a cracking long-range call, though as always, the further out you look, the less certain it is.

Cozies and Geeries is a reef and point setup, so that long-period groundswell will wrap in nicely. Crowds are possible there, especially on those clean days, so get in early.

Stay stoked.
