The Lowdown
Alright, let’s talk about Floreat groyne. This beach and groyne setup is beginner-friendly, fairly consistent, and it loves a good WSW swell. Over the next couple weeks you’ll see a mix of clean glass, windy chop, and a couple sessions that are pure magic – if you’re on the ball.
We kick off Sunday the 19th with a 7.9ft WSW swell, but it’s cross-on and the energy’s pumping at 2405 – not ideal for the groyne, just marginal. Monday the 20th morning, the swell drops to 5ft and it goes glassy – dead calm. Energy at 623, moderate, and the waves are clean. That’s a nice little window for beginners. Monday afternoon turns cross-on again, poor.
Tuesday the 21st morning is clean, cross-off from the NE, 4.6ft WSW swell with a 14-second period – a decent groundswell. Energy 966, moderate. Very good conditions. Tuesday afternoon the wind swings S and picks up, making it choppy. Wednesday the 22nd is a treat: morning offshore from the E, 5ft, 13 seconds, energy 784 – clean, gentle offshore. Same for the afternoon. Thursday the 23rd stays clean but smaller, 4.3ft, with cross-off winds. Friday the 24th fades to 3.3ft, not much going on.
The weekend of the 25th and 26th is a write-off – strong onshore winds, messy, poor surf. Swell builds a bit Sunday the 26th but it’s cross-on and choppy. Then Monday the 27th morning brings a nice pulse: 5.6ft WSW, 14 seconds, cross-off from the SE, energy 1080 – clean and fun. Afternoon gets cross-shore chop.
Tuesday the 28th morning is offshore from the E, 3.9ft, 13 seconds, energy

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.
