Curl Curl Point Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright, mate, Rusty here. Let’s get straight into it. Honestly, the next week and a half is looking pretty average for waves around here. We’ve got a lot of small, messy days ahead before things finally line up for a proper session.

The first few days are a bit of a write-off. Thursday and Friday are looking small, with waves around the 1.5-2ft mark, and while the winds are clean in the mornings, it’s just not doing much. The energy is weak, sitting around 93-119, and it’s that short-period stuff that’s just not going to have any push. It’s really just a case of getting wet and enjoying the water, not expecting any proper rides.

The weekend doesn’t get much better. Saturday is still tiny, and Sunday picks up a touch to 3.5ft, but the wind is cross-off and clean, so it’ll be glassy but gutless. The energy climbs to 194-206, but it's still not enough to get excited about. This is a long stretch of nothing, a few days of just waiting it out.

Then we get a little pulse on Monday the 10th, with the swell jumping to 5ft, but the wind is pumping from the WNW at 22 mph, which is just going to make it a messy, blown-out mess. Not worth paddling out for. The energy is moderate at 373, but the conditions are poor.

Things start to turn a corner on Tuesday the 11th. That’s the day we start to see something clean. The morning is looking like the pick of the next several days, with a clean 4ft of S swell, a 10-second period, and a gentle cross-off breeze. The energy is a solid 300, and it’s the first time the conditions and the swell are on the same page. It’s not big, but it’ll be fun and clean, and the point should be working nicely.

Wednesday and Thursday are a step back again. More lumpy, more cross-shore wind, and the swell mixes up. Thursday afternoon bumps up to 8ft, but it’s a short-period SW windswell with a cross-onshore, making it a total mess. Not your friend.

Now, let’s talk about the standout. Friday the 14th of August. That’s the one. The morning is looking proper. We’ve got 10ft of S swell, a 10-second period, and light W winds keeping it clean. The energy is massive at 2873, which is a serious dump of power. This is a big day, and I’m calling it now: this is for experienced surfers only. If you’re not comfortable in heavy, solid waves, stay on the beach. But for the crew who know what they’re doing, this is going to be a session to remember. This is the standout of the whole period.

The weekend after that is still fun. Saturday the 15th has a clean 5-5.5ft of SSE swell with light winds, and that’s a good, solid day for everyone. Sunday the 16th gets blown out with a fresh S wind, so it’s back to looking for shelter.

The final few days, from Monday the 17th through to the 21st, are a mix of small, clean mornings and blown-out afternoons. The swells are in the 2.5ft to 4ft range, and the winds are mostly cross-off or offshore, but the energy is just moderate. It’s not terrible, but it’s not a standout. The 13-second period on the 19th could be interesting, but the NE cross wind will probably chop it up.

So, the short version: the best surf on offer is definitely Friday the 14th, with that big, clean groundswell. If that’s too much, then Tuesday the 11th and Saturday the 15th are your next best bets for a clean, manageable session. The rest is just filler. Keep an eye on that Friday though—that’s the one.

Alright, I’m out. Stay stoked.
