The Lowdown

Alright, let’s have a look at what’s on offer for Floreat groyne over the next couple of weeks.

Right off the bat, we’ve got a bit of a slow start, but there’s some decent groundswell lining up, especially for the first week. The water temperature is sitting at around 62°, which is a couple of degrees cooler than usual for this time of year, so you’ll want a decent wetsuit.

The first standout is Saturday afternoon, August 15. The wind goes glassy – straight up offshore, light as anything – and we’ve got a clean 5 ft WSW swell with a 14-second period. The combined energy is moderate (975), and conditions are looking very good. It’s a beginner-friendly spot, so this is a great window for getting out there without too much hassle.

Sunday morning, August 16, still has a solid 6 ft WSW swell, but the wind swings NNE at 19 mph, which is cross-off but a bit fresh. The energy picks up (1511), but it’s not as clean as Saturday afternoon. Sunday afternoon is similar, just with a lighter breeze.

Monday, August 17, is a write-off – strong cross-onshore winds and lumpy conditions, with swell jumping to 6 ft and then 12 ft. The energy is strong (1884 and 4743), but it’s messy. Not worth paddling out.

Tuesday, August 18, sees a big 12 ft WSW swell with a 16-second period, and the wind is glassy in the morning. But here’s the thing – that’s too big for this break. It’s a beginner spot, and over 8 ft is only for experts. The energy is very strong (5258), but it’s a pass unless you’re really experienced and know the groyne well.

Wednesday, August 19, drops to 8 ft, but the wind is cross-onshore and choppy. Not great.

Now, Thursday morning, August 20 – this is a proper standout. The swell is 8 ft from the WSW with a 16-second period, and the wind is dead calm, glassy. The energy is strong (3309), and it’s excellent for experienced surfers. That’s a big, clean groundswell, and with no wind, it’ll be smooth. Just be aware – at that size, it’s not for beginners.

Friday morning, August 21, brings a cleaner 6 ft WSW swell with a 14-second period, light ESE cross-off wind, and good energy (1455). That’s a solid session for the experienced crew.

Saturday morning, August 22, is another good one – 6 ft, 13-second period, light NE cross-off, clean conditions. Energy is moderate (1707). Good for a relaxed session.

Sunday morning, August 23, is glassy again – 6 ft, 16-second period, zero wind. That’s a beautiful morning for a paddle. Energy is moderate (1379).

After that, the second week gets a bit quieter. There’s a standout on Friday morning, August 28 – 6 ft, 18-second period, light NE wind, glassy. The energy is moderate (1855), and it’s excellent for experienced surfers. That’s a long-period groundswell, so it’ll have plenty of push, but it might break a bit straight at the beach – still, at Floreat groyne, that should be fine.

The rest of the month has some mixed conditions, with a few marginal windows but nothing that jumps out as a must-surf. The swell drops off toward the end, and by the 30th, it’s big and onshore again.

To sum it up: the best windows are Saturday afternoon August 15, Thursday morning August 20, Friday morning August 21, Sunday morning August 23, and Friday morning August 28. Keep an eye on the size – the 20th is a big one, so only for the experienced.

Information about the Floreat groyne Surf forecast

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

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 Floreat groyne 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.
