Table - best surf conditions forecast for Flies over the next 16 days.


G’day, Rusty here. Look, I’ve gotta be straight with you—this next 16 days is a tough stretch for Flies. It’s a beach and jetty setup, exposed to the south-west swell, but the whole run is plagued by onshore or cross-shore winds, short-period junky swell, and just poor conditions. The water’s sitting at 67°F, which is a bit colder than normal for this time of year, so you’ll want a good wetsuit. There’s a gap of flat, useless surf from the start all the way through until the morning of Tuesday 14 July, when things finally start to tick over, but even then it’s nothing to write home about.

The first real chance is on Tuesday 14 July morning. The wind is cross-off from the WSW at 19 mph, keeping the lineup clean, with a small 4 ft swell from the SW at a short 5 seconds. The combined energy is weak (65), so you’ll be fighting for scraps. That afternoon bumps up to 5 ft and 6 seconds, with moderate energy (159), but still short-period junk. Wednesday 15 July morning is cleaner with a 3 ft south-southwest swell at 6 seconds and light cross-off wind, but it’s barely surfable (99 energy). Honestly, the best window is a marginal call for the morning of Saturday 25 July, when the swell hits 6 ft from the south at 7 seconds, with a strong combined energy of 645, but it’s onshore wind from the ESE at 9 mph, making it messy and lumpy. That’s a bit big for beginners, and the onshore wind will chop it up. For the advanced crew, it’s the only standout, but it’s not clean. The rest of the fortnight is a mix of onshore slop and tiny dribble, with the odd midday cross-off reprieve that never quite delivers. If you’re desperate, Tuesday morning 14 July is the cleanest small wave option, but don’t expect much. The setup looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing on most days, with strong cross-shore winds and building swell later in the period. No real surf on offer here. Stay tuned—forecasts can change.

Rusty.

Information about the Flies Surf forecast

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