The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s cookin’ for Dee Why Point over the next couple of weeks.

We’ve got a bit of a mixed bag coming up. The first few days are showing some promise, but then we’re looking at a real dry spell before a possible late flurry of action. The water temp is sitting at 64°, which is bang on average for this time of year, so no surprises there.

The best of the early action kicks off this Saturday afternoon, the 25th of July. The wind is glassy, coming from the north at just 3 mph, and we’ve got a clean 4 ft swell from the south with a 10-second period. The wave energy is moderate (363), and conditions are looking glassy. It’s not massive, but it’ll be clean and fun for the advanced crew. Just keep in mind this spot can get crowded.

Sunday morning, the 26th, is shaping up to be the real standout early on. We’ve got a solid 6 ft swell from the south, with a period of 11 seconds - that’s proper groundswell. The wind is offshore from the WSW at 9 mph, making for some beautiful, clean lines. The energy is ramping up to a strong 746. This is the session to point your board at. The afternoon, however, turns ugly with a cross-onshore wind and dropped quality, so don’t sleep in.

After Sunday, things go downhill fast. Monday the 27th is surfable but ordinary, and from Tuesday the 28th through to Wednesday the 29th, we’ve got a real gap. The swell drops to nothing – 1.0 ft or less – with hardly any energy (down to 10-29). Even with offshore winds, there’s just no water moving. It’s a dead zone for a few days.

The next serious event is a big one, but it’s a warning. On Thursday the 30th of July, we’re looking at a massive 12 ft swell from the south, with a period of 11 seconds. The energy readings are enormous (4286-5213), but this is simply too big for Dee Why Point. Even with favorable winds, this is expert-only territory, and even then, it’s probably going to be a washing machine. For the average surfer, this is a day to watch from the cliff.

The swell drops back a bit for Friday the 31st and Saturday the 1st of August, with waves around 7 ft to 8 ft, but the wind is messy and the conditions are marginal. The morning of Saturday the 1st has a clean offshore wind from the SW at 9 mph on a 7 ft SSE swell (energy 663), which is a decent option, but it’s not the best of the run.

The next real highlight is further out. Sunday morning, the 2nd of August, is looking very promising. The swell is 7 ft from the SE, but the period is long at 12 seconds – that’s quality groundswell. The wind is light and cross-offshore from the NW at 6 mph, and the energy is strong (1124). This could be a really good, clean session for the advanced guys. The afternoon turns onshore, so get in early.

We then have a few more days of smaller, clean surf on the 3rd and 4th, but nothing to write home about. Then, on Wednesday the 5th of August, we get another pulse: a 7 ft swell from the SE with a moderate offshore wind (12 mph from the SW). The energy is moderate (570). It’s a solid option for a mid-week paddle.

The final standout in the long-range forecast is Thursday morning, the 6th of August. The swell is a solid 10 ft from the ESE, with a period of 9 seconds and a clean cross-offshore wind. The energy is very strong (2588). It’s big, but if the wind holds, it could be a ripper for the experienced crew. The afternoon of the 7th of August also looks good with a 8 ft swell and offshore winds, but it’s getting late in the forecast period, so have your fingers crossed.

Overall, the best bets are Sunday morning the 26th of July and Sunday morning the 2nd of August. The middle of the week has a few gaps, so pick your windows carefully.

Rusty.

Information about the Dee Why Point Surf forecast

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