The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here again, but this time in feet and miles per hour. Let's break down what's happening at Floreat groyne.
Water temp is 63°F, which is a solid 4°F colder than usual for this time of year, so you’ll be wanting a thick wetsuit. It's much colder than normal.
The surf takes a minute to get going. Sunday the 19th is a total mess with a 7ft cross-on swell and weak energy. The first real session is Monday the 20th morning. Glassy conditions, a 5ft WSW swell with a 12-second period, and the ocean is flat calm. Combined energy is moderate. It's clean and a perfect start for beginners, but only if you get out before the afternoon when it turns into a choppy mess.
Tuesday the 21st is clean in the morning with a 5ft SW swell, but the wind ruins it later. Then from Wednesday the 22nd through Thursday the 23rd, we get a run of offshore winds. Wednesday morning has a 5ft WSW swell, but the energy is building. The best of this stretch is Wednesday arvo and Thursday, with a clean 4ft to 4ft swell and moderate offshore winds. It's clean and consistent.
We hit a flat spell from Friday the 24th through the weekend, as the swell drops under 3ft.
Now, Monday the 27th of July is a big one. A massive 13ft WSW swell with a 14-second period and a huge combined energy reading. The wind is clean offshore, but the wave report says it's too big for this break. This is for experts only, and it's dangerous.
After that, Tuesday the 28th and Wednesday the 29th are back to clean, offshore conditions. Tuesday morning has a 6ft WSW swell, and Wednesday brings a 4ft WSW swell with a very long 17-second period. That long period gives the waves heaps of energy, but at a beach/groyne spot, it might get a bit straight.
The absolute standout is Saturday the 1st of August. Morning session, clear skies, light cross-off wind, and a 5ft WSW swell with an 18-second period. The combined energy is strong. The wave report says it's excellent for experienced surfers. That's your best session of the whole outlook. The Sunday the 2nd still has some size, 7ft, but the conditions are flagged as a bit marginal.
So, to sum it up: get out Monday the 20th morning if you're a beginner wanting clean waves. The one to put a big red circle around is Saturday the 1st of August morning for the experienced crew. The big Monday the 27th is a beast, but only for the brave.
Rusty.

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. Our Floreat groyne 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 (Floreat groyne) 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 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.
