The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what Dreamland’s got cooking for us over the next couple of weeks.
Right off the bat, we’ve got a bit of a lull to kick things off. The first few days are pretty marginal – you’ll see some swell around, but the conditions are just not playing ball. It’s not until Saturday the 25th that we start to see something a little more promising, with a clean 4ft swell from the SSW and a fresh offshore wind. That’s the first real window of opportunity, but it’s still not a standout.
The real standout, the one that’s got me a little excited, is shaping up for Saturday, the 1st of August. That’s where we see a solid 6ft SSW groundswell (18-second period) with a moderate offshore wind. The energy is strong (2575), and the conditions are tipped as excellent for experienced surfers. This is a long-period swell, so Dreamland’s beach-and-reef setup could be offering up some proper, well-shaped lines. Just keep in mind that with that long period, the sets might be a bit wider apart, and it’s a wave that’ll suit the crew who know how to position themselves.
Then, another one to circle on the calendar is Wednesday, the 5th of August. We’re looking at a 8ft SSW swell, again with a 15-second period and a moderate offshore breeze. The energy is strong (2535), and conditions are rated excellent for experienced surfers. That’s a bigger wave, over 8ft, so this one is strictly for the experts. It’s a powerful groundswell, and at this size, Dreamland will be firing, but it’ll be a serious session.
The water temp is sitting at 80°F, which is pretty much bang on average for this time of year, so no surprises there.
The rest of the window is a mix of cross-off winds and clean conditions, with plenty of waist-to-chest high SSW swell rolling through, but those two Saturdays – the 1st and the 5th – are the ones I’d be holding out for. The long-range stuff looks promising, but as always, we’ll keep an eye on it.
Stay safe out there, and don’t be a hero if it’s too big.
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.
