The Lowdown
G'day, Rusty here. Let me tell you, this 16-day stretch at Duppys is a tough watch. We’ve got a whole lot of nothing for the first week. Sunday the 26th of July through to the 31st is basically a bust – mostly flat, or close to it, with no real energy to speak of. The wind’s been a pain, too, a solid easterly blowing across the lineup most days, which doesn’t do this exposed reef any favours.
The water temp is sitting right on average for the time of year at 83°, so no surprises there.
After that long, dry spell, we finally see a flicker of hope on Saturday morning, August 1st. It’s not a classic, but it’s the only thing worth mentioning in the whole outlook. We get a small ENE swell at 4ft banging in with an 8-second period. The wind swings offshore from the east, making it clean. The combined energy of the swell is moderate (239), so it has a bit of push. This is the standout, and honestly, the *only* window. It’s a late call for a Saturday dawny. After that, it’s back to a frustrating run of tiny, short-period slop and onshore winds right through to the 10th of August. There’s just not a lot to get excited about here. For this stretch, the only real highlight is that Saturday morning.
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.
