Alright, Rusty here. Let's look at what we've got for this stretch.
Right off the bat, it's not looking too flash. We're looking at a tough 16-day run at Dreamland, which is a beach and reef setup. Water temp is running around 81°F, which is bang on average for this time of year. The first few days are a proper write-off with marginal conditions and strong, onshore-charged winds. From Monday 6th July through until Saturday 11th July, it's a mess: pretty consistent sized swell, mostly around 5ft to 7ft with a long period (15-16 seconds) from the SSW, but the wind is pumping from the ESE and SE at 15-19 mph, putting it as a strong cross-off wind. It's just not gonna be clean enough to be fun. The energy is there (2462 on the Monday afternoon for example) but the quality is gone. Those waves will be lumpy and hard to read – more of a kite session than a paddle session, to be honest.
Late Sunday 12th July is the first glimmer of hope. The swell drops right off to 3ft on the Sunday morning from the SW, but the wind finally goes offshore from the ESE at 15 mph. That's a rare clean window – expect clean, glassy lines, but tiny, so it'll be longboard or nothing. The energy is only 733, but for that moment it's clean.
The following week stays mostly marginal. Sunday 19th July brings a decent bump back up to 7ft from the SW with moderate wind, but it's still cross-off. The real standout to keep your eye on, though, is Friday 17th July morning. The swell holds at 5ft from the SW (14 seconds), and the wind drops to a gentle 9 mph from the ESE, which is still cross-off but way cleaner than anything around it. The energy sits at 849. The report calls for "very good surf conditions" that morning - with that mellow wind and solid chest-high groundswell, Dreamland should actually start showing its potential. The crowd factor is listed as "sometimes" so you might see a few out, but for this stretch, that's as good as it gets. After that, it's back to lumpy, onshore junk for the final few days of the forecast, with nothing else breaking through.
So, if you're desperate for a paddle, the call is Sunday 12th July dawn and, more promising, the morning of Friday 17th July. Everything else in this 16-day block is a gamble you'll probably lose.
Stay stoked,
Rusty.

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