The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here again. Let’s break this down in feet and miles per hour.
This is a tough stretch at Duppys. It’s a reef break that’s fairly consistent and exposed, and it likes a north swell, but for the next week and a half, it’s mostly flat.
Friday the 24th is a dead loss. Cross-off wind at 30 km/h, no swell, zero energy. Water temp is 28°, which is normal for the season. Nothing doing.
Saturday the 25th is the only thing worth mentioning. Morning brings a 5ft swell from the east-northeast, short period of 7 seconds, but the wind goes offshore from the east at 20 km/h. That’s clean. The energy is moderate at 280. The afternoon gets a risk of t-storms and a cross-off wind, so it’s not as good.
From Sunday the 26th right through the end of July, it’s flat. The wind is often offshore, but there’s no swell. You’d be floating.
The first week of August doesn’t help. The biggest swell we see is 1ft on the 4th, with a 9-second period, and the energy tops out at 44. The wind is mostly offshore, so it’s clean, but there’s nothing to ride. The best we get is a 0.3ft north swell on the 2nd of August with a 10-second period – that’s a ripple.
The only real option is Saturday morning, July 25th. That’s 5ft, east-northeast, with offshore wind. It’s clean, but it’s a short-period swell, so it’s not going to be world-class. Still, it’s the only game in town.
For the rest, it’s a long, flat run. Sometimes it’s like this. Forecasts can change, but for now, I’d stay home.
Rusty.

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.
