The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's cookin' at Duppys for the next couple of weeks. Gotta be straight with ya, it's a pretty bleak picture for a while.
We're starting off on Thursday the 23rd of July with a bit of swell, but it's a write-off. That's a 5ft swell from the ENE but it's getting hammered by a 18.6 mph cross-offshore breeze, and the wave energy is pretty moderate at best (167). The report says it's poor surf conditions, so don't even bother waxing up. This run of nothing really rolls on for days. We get a tiny window on Sunday the 26th of July morning where there's a 4.3ft ENE swell with a steady 12.4 mph offshore wind, which sounds clean, and the energy is there (183). But the report still calls it "very ordinary conditions," so it's a scratchy one at best.
Then it goes totally flat again. From Monday the 27th right through to Friday the 31st of July, there's no swell to speak of, just dry offshore and cross-off winds. That's a solid five-day dead spell. We get a little bump on Saturday the 1st of August with a 3.9ft ENE swell, moderate energy (207), but again, the conditions are considered poor, so it's not inviting.
After that, it's back to flat for the start of August. The second week is a total washout. From the 2nd through the 7th of August, we're looking at ankle-snappers at best. There's a tiny pulse of 0.3ft to 1ft from the north with long periods over 11 seconds, but the energy is next to nothing (between 2 and 31). This is not the kind of stuff you paddle out for.
Honestly, there's nothing here that stands out as a "yes, go." The only day that even had a pulse was that Sunday the 26th morning, with a clean offshore and roughly 4.3ft of swell, but it wasn't good quality. For the rest of the forecast, you're better off doing something else. The crowds might be light at Duppys, but that's because there's nothing to surf. For the beginners out there, nothing gets big enough to worry about, but for everyone, there's just no proper ride to be had.
Stay tuned, forecasts can change, but for now, it's a solid miss.

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.
