The Lowdown
Hey, Rusty here. Let’s talk surf. The first week’s a bit flat, but the back half of this outlook has a monster waiting for you. The real standout is Saturday, August 15th—that’s the one you need to mark.
Friday, July 31st is a write-off. A 6ft south swell at Curl Curl Point, but it’s cross-shore, choppy, and messy. Water temp is 64°, normal for the season. Combined energy is moderate (687). Not worth paddling out. Friday afternoon is worse—poor, cross-on, and choppy. Save your wax.
Saturday, August 1st morning finally shows some life. A 5ft SSE swell, light WSW cross-off, combined energy moderate (450). Clean. The afternoon goes glassy, 5ft SSE swell, 9-second period. Smooth, easy waves. That’s the best of the early run.
Sunday, August 2nd morning is a cracker. 5ft SSE swell, 13-second period, light N cross-off, combined energy strong (999). That’s groundswell wrapping the point. Longer sets, but the shape is proper. Get out early. The afternoon gets cross and choppy.
Monday, August 3rd is smaller. Morning shows 3ft SE swell, 11-second period, offshore NNW wind. Clean but small. Combined energy moderate (283). The afternoon drops to 3ft.
From Tuesday, August 4th through Friday, August 14th, it’s mostly quiet. Tiny waves, poor conditions, or not enough energy. A brief moment on Wednesday, August 5th morning with a 5ft S swell and clean cross-off, but combined energy is moderate (644) and it’s not a game-changer. You’ll see 1ft to 4ft swells most days, often with short periods or onshore winds. A long, slow stretch.
Then Saturday, August 15th morning. Boom. A massive 16ft SSE swell, 11-second period, light N cross-off, clear skies. Combined energy is 5,996—that’s very strong, proper power. Water temp still 64°, normal. This is for experts only. Over 8ft is serious. The point will be charging, but crowds are possible. Saturday morning is the absolute standout.
Rusty out.

Information about the Curl Curl Point Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Curl Curl Point provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Curl Curl Point can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Curl Curl Point 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 (Curl Curl Point) 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 Curl Curl Point 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.
