Table - best surf conditions forecast for Damp over the next 16 days.
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you: this is a quiet stretch for the region. The data shows a long run of poor surf conditions, so we’re looking at a real gap before anything even remotely rideable shows up.
The first chance you’ll see is from Friday morning, July 10th, but it’s a tiny 1ft wind swell from the north with a short period of 4 seconds. The combined energy is a weak 4, and the wind is a messy cross-off. It’s hardly worth paddling out for. That’s followed by even smaller stuff – 0.7ft to 1.0ft – with bad winds and zero energy through the weekend and into the next week. You’ll be staring at a flat, choppy lake for days.
There’s finally a tiny pulse on Saturday morning, July 18th, with a 0.7ft glassy wave from the east, but the energy is just 1. It’s a fleeting moment of calm before the wind picks up again. The best looking window comes around Tuesday afternoon, July 21st, when a 3ft north swell rolls in, period 5 seconds, and combined energy climbs to 27. That’s still weak, but it’s the biggest bump in the whole 16-day window. The wind is a light cross, so it won’t be clean, but it’s the only time the wave height gets close to knee-high.
Honestly, the standout is Damp itself, but as a sandbar that’s inconsistent, it’s a tough watch. The water temp is 63° with a +0.4° anomaly, so pretty average for mid-July. For the first week, it’s a total write-off. The second week offers a few brief moments, but nothing that’ll get your heart racing. If you’re desperate, keep an eye on that Tuesday the 21st – but it’s a long shot.
Rusty.

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