Alright mate, Rusty here, let’s have a look at what’s on the cards for Dee Why Point.

We’ve got some proper energy rolling in right off the bat, and a solid window of clean surf to kick things off. The combined swell energy is sitting at 510 (moderate wave energy) on Friday morning, with a 6ft SE swell and a 9-second period. The water temp is 65°, which is bang on average for this time of year, so no surprises there. Friday morning has light rain and a light offshore breeze from the WSW, so it’ll be clean and fun for the advanced crew out at Dee Why Point. If you can get out Friday afternoon, it goes glassy – zero wind, 5ft of SE swell, and that energy jumps to 533. That’s your standout window. It’s the best on offer by a long way.

Saturday morning sees the swell drop to 4ft and the wind goes cross-shore from the NNW. It’s still surfable but nothing special. By Saturday afternoon the wind swings onshore from the NE and the swell fades. Sunday through to Tuesday are a write-off – small, weak, and not worth paddling out for. The combined energy drops to three digits and then into double digits. It’s flat.

Then on Wednesday the 15th of July, a new S swell shows up at 6ft (900 combined energy), but the wind is cross-off from the S at 16 mph – it’s clean but a bit junky. That’s more of a kite-surfing setup if you ask me, not ideal for a point break.

Now, here’s the real gem for the following week. On Thursday the 16th of July, we get a solid pulse from the S at 6ft with a 10-second period, and a gentle offshore from the WSW at 9 mph. The combined energy hits 921 (moderate to strong wave energy). That’s clean, powerful, and the conditions are set for a ripping morning. This is the second standout of the outlook – just keep in mind it’s a week and a half away, so it’s promising but not locked in.

After that, the swell fades again. We get a small bump on the 18th from the E at 4ft to 5ft, but the wind is onshore by the afternoon. The rest of the run up to the 25th is mainly small, weak, and wonky winds. Crowds are often around Dee Why Point, so if you’re keen on the good days, get out early.

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.
