The Lowdown
Imperial
Alright, I’m not gonna lie to you, the next couple of weeks are looking pretty grim for a proper paddle. The only real sniff of surf comes right at the start, and even then it’s nothing to write home about.
We’ve got a bit of life on Sunday the 26th, with a 4ft swell from the ENE, but it’s only running at 8 seconds. That’s short period, so it’ll be a bit crumbly and weak. The wind is cross-off from the east at 9 mph, which is okay, but the combined swell energy is a paltry 135 (weak). The water is a warm 83°F, which is pretty much average for this time of year.
Honestly, Sunday the 26th afternoon is the only time in the whole 16-day window that I’d even bother paddling out. The score is a 1 out of 10, so it’s surfable, but very ordinary. It’s not going to be a standout. The rest of the forecast is a long, sad stretch of nothing. From Monday the 27th right through to Monday the 10th of August, it’s all “poor surf conditions” with swell heights mostly under 2ft or flat.
There’s a brief pulse on the 1st of August Saturday afternoon, with a 5ft ENE swell and a combined energy of 256 (moderate), but the wind is cross-off at 16 mph, and the score is still a zero. The window is too short and the conditions are too messy to call it any kind of option.
For the rest of the time, you’re looking at a lot of offshore wind, which is great for the surface, but with no swell to push it, you’re just staring at a flat ocean. The long period stuff we see on the 7th and 8th of August (10-12 seconds) is just a tease with tiny 0.7ft to 1ft waves. It’s a blank run, plain and simple. Sometimes it just stays poor for a while, and this is one of those times.

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