Hey, Rusty here. Not gonna sugarcoat it – the surf at Duppys is pretty much dead for the whole 16-day run.
Friday July 3rd opens with a tiny 0.3ft northerly windswell, 9-second period and combined energy of just (1). That’s nothing. The east wind is cranking at 25 km/h, cross-off, but there’s no wave to shape. Saturday the 4th through Tuesday the 7th? Flat – zero swell showing. Wednesday the 8th gives us a bump to 1ft from the northeast, 12-second period, combined energy (44), but the east cross-off at 22 km/h keeps it clean but empty.
From Thursday the 9th through Saturday the 18th of July, it’s the same grind: 0.3–0.7ft swells from the north-northeast or north, periods 9 to 12 seconds, combined energy barely cracking (13) most days, and east / east-northeast winds at 15–22 km/h. There are a few afternoons with offshore wind clean conditions, like Saturday the 18th with 0.3ft at 11 seconds, but it’s still just a ripple.
Duppys is exposed to northerly swell and usually fairly consistent, so this run is a real bummer. Water temp is around 82°F, pretty standard for this time of year. Save your energy. Forecasts can change, but right now there’s nothing to ride.
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.
