Alright folks, Rusty here. We've got a long look at Fare Left, and honestly, it's a bit of a slow burner. The first week is mostly a write-off for a decent paddle, with messy winds and just grumpy conditions. But if you can be patient, the second week shows some real promise with clean, offshore conditions rolling in.

We kick off on Saturday, July 11th, but don't get too excited. Despite a small 3ft swell from the WSW and water temps sitting at a comfortable 81°, which is pretty normal for this time of year, the wind is all wrong. A nasty cross-onshore breeze is just chopping it up, making for poor surf. The wave energy is only moderate (408), and honestly, it's not worth a second look.

Sunday and Monday keep that cross-onshore wind, making everything a bit of a mess. Swell builds a bit, hitting around 5ft on Sunday and even pushing 7ft on Monday, with the combined energy jumping into strong territory (1379 to 1638). But it's all cross-onshore and choppy, so the quality just isn't there.

We get a shift to a cross-offshore wind from the SSE from Wednesday, July 15th, through to the following Saturday. This cleans things up nicely, and the swell stays solid, generally between 6ft and 7ft, with a strong to very strong energy reading (up to 4068 on Thursday afternoon). The period is solid too, hitting 16 seconds on Thursday. But the wind is stiff, with a fresh breeze of 19 to 22 mph, so while it's clean, it's still going to be a bit of a battle. Not quite the standout.

Now, the real gem arrives on Monday, July 20th. This is the best of the whole window. We've got a nice new SSW groundswell, 5ft, with a very long period of 19 to 20 seconds. Combined with a moderate, clean offshore breeze from the east-southeast, Fare Left will be glassy and well-shaped. The wave energy is very strong (2334 to 2471). This is a serious swell for the advanced crew, as it’s just the right size for the reef to shine. The long period will mean proper lines, and the offshore wind will have it looking perfect. Don't expect a crowd, but it is a spot that can get a few.

Things get even bigger for the experienced surfer through to Friday, July 24th, with the swell peaking at 8ft and a fresh offshore wind keeping it clean. The energy is massive (2939). This is big and powerful, and really only for the well-equipped.

From Saturday, July 25th onwards, the swell starts to back off and the period shortens, but the offshore wind holds. It’s still surfable, but nothing special.

So to sum it up: suffer through the first week, then the window from Monday the 20th to Friday the 24th is the main event, with Monday the 20th being the real standout for clean, long-period lines at this advanced reef.

Rusty.

Information about the Fare Left Surf forecast

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