Alright, Rusty here again, giving you the lowdown in feet and miles per hour.
We’ve got a proper pulse of swell hitting Dee Why Point starting Wednesday, July 8th. This is the standout of the entire run. Water temp is about average for this time of year, nothing wild. Early Wednesday morning, we’re looking at a solid 8ft swell out of the SE, with a 10-second period and a ton of energy (1647). The wind is a light cross-offshore breeze from the south at 9 mph, keeping the surface glassy. This is top-shelf stuff for the advanced crew only. Expect a crowd when it’s this good.
By Wednesday afternoon, the swell drops a bit to 8ft, still packing energy (1481), but the wind picks up to 12 mph, making conditions a little more tricky. Still rideable for the experienced.
Thursday the 9th brings a 6ft swell in the morning with a light cross-off wind, energy down to 832. Clean, fun waves. Stay away from the afternoon, which gets lumpy.
Friday the 10th offers a clean 5ft swell from the SE, a 10-second period, and a light offshore breeze. Energy is moderate at 450. Good but not epic.
The weekend sees the swell fading. Saturday the 11th starts with 4ft, clean but weak, and by Sunday the 12th we’re down to a measly 2ft with no real power (98). Offshore wind keeps it tidy but it’s tiny.
From Monday the 13th of July all the way through to Tuesday the 21st of July, we’re in a major lull. Swell is mostly under 2ft, with very low energy numbers (25 to 134). The wind is often offshore, so it’s clean, but there are no waves to ride. That’s a 9-day stretch where you’re just looking at flat water.
A new S swell tries to build around Thursday the 16th of July, with waves around 6ft and a good 11-second period, but the wind is screaming from the SSE at 22 mph, making a messy, lumpy ocean. Energy is back up (819) but quality is rotten. Friday the 17th is similar – cleaner, but the strong wind makes it a slog. This looks better for kiting than paddling.
We finally get a tiny glimmer on Tuesday the 22nd of July with a clean 2ft under a light offshore, and Wednesday the 23rd with 3ft and a moderate offshore. Ankle-biters, plain and simple. The only true standout in this whole 16-day window is that Wednesday morning on the 8th. Go get it.
Rusty.

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.
