The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s cookin’ for the next stretch at Floreat groyne. It’s a bit of a mixed bag, but there are a couple of windows that’ll get your blood pumping.
The forecast starts quiet, but the pulse picks up with a solid groundswell that really cranks in the second half of the first week. The standout is definitely Tuesday, August 4th, and then again the following Sunday, August 9th. For a spot that’s fairly consistent, the early part of the run is a real tease.
Thursday, July 30th, is a write-off – 3 ft of SW swell, 13-second period, cross-shore breeze, and the water is a chilly 62°, which is a solid 4° colder than usual for this time of year. Just a tough, poor session. Friday and Saturday, July 31st and August 1st, see the swell push up past 5 ft (5 ft to 8 ft), but the wind is junk – cross-on and cross-shore with a moderate chop. The combined energy hits 1108, then 2305, but it’s messy. Not worth the paddle.
Sunday, August 2nd, is where we start to see a shift. The morning is clean with a cross-off breeze, and the afternoon turns glassy with offshore wind. Swell is 7 ft to 6 ft from the WSW, period 13-14 seconds. The energy is solid (1224-1490), and it’s clean. That’s a good window for a beginner-friendly groyne wave.
Then we hit the real gem. Tuesday morning, August 4th. Glassy conditions, 8 ft of WSW groundswell, and a very long 18-second period. The combined energy is a massive 3361. This is powerful, clean, and lined up. This is for experienced surfers – trust me, it’s too big and punchy for beginners. The long period will make it bend beautifully around the groyne, but it’ll be a long wait between sets.
The following Sunday, August 9th, is another standout. Morning glass-off with a cross-off breeze, 8 ft swell, 15-second period, and a combined energy of 3201. It’s clean and powerful. Afternoon picks up a slight cross-shore chop, but still 10 ft with 4042 energy. That’s a serious session for the experienced crew.
The other days are a mix of moderate swell and poor winds, or big swell (12 ft to 13 ft) with strong onshore winds that turn it into a lumpy, blown-out mess. From August 7th through to the 9th, the wind is just too strong for decent paddle surfing – it’s more of a kite setup than anything else. The last real hope is Friday, August 14th, with glassy conditions and 7 ft of clean swell, but that’s a long way off and less certain.
Keep your eyes on Tuesday, August 4th, and Sunday, August 9th. Those are the ones.
Rusty.

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.
