Table - best surf conditions forecast for Focene or Baraonda over the next 16 days.
G’day, Rusty here. Look, I’ve stared at this forecast for the next 16 days and I’m gonna be straight with you – there’s nothing doing. Not a single session worth paddling out for. It’s a blank run, plain and simple. The energy just isn’t there.
Let’s start with the big picture. We’re looking at Focene or Baraonda, a fairly consistent beginner-friendly spot exposed to swell coming from the SW. But for this whole stretch, the wave height barely gets its toes wet. The best we see is a tiny 2 ft on Monday morning, 13 July, but that’s from the S with a short period of 6 seconds and the combined swell energy is a weak 28. That’s not surf, that’s a ripple. The wind is light and cross-off in the morning, so it’s clean, but the waves are just too small to do anything with. From there it just gets worse – the energy drops into single digits or zeros for days on end. Tuesday the 14th has a glassy morning but the swell is 0.7 ft with an energy of 2. That’s a lake, not a lineup.
We run through the whole first week with nothing. Thursday the 16th, glassy again in the morning, 0.7 ft of S swell, energy of 4 – still nothing. Friday the 17th is dead flat. Weekend’s no better: Saturday the 18th has a 0.9 ft west-southwest groundswell with a bit of offshore wind, but the energy is only 7. That’s a paddling pool for toddlers. Sunday the 19th has onshore wind at 15 mph and no swell to speak of. Honestly, the whole first week and into the second is a write-off.
There is a tiny pulse later on. Thursday 23 July morning shows 2 ft from the WSW with a period of 5 seconds and energy of 30 (weak). Wind is cross-off from the NE at 9 mph so it’s clean, but the wave height is pitiful. Friday 24 July morning is similar – 2 ft, WSW, clean with a light cross-off breeze, energy at 17. Still not worth suiting up for. Even the best-looking morning, Sunday 26 July, gives us 2 ft from the SW, period 5 seconds, energy 14, and glassy conditions. That’s the highest wave height in the entire outlook, but it’s a measly 2 ft. At a beach setup with short period swell, that’s barely a knee-high dribble for the beginner crowd. On the plus side, the wind is glassy, so if you’re learning and just want to get wet on a foamie, you could have a laugh. But don’t call it a surf.
The water temp is about average for the time of year.
Truth is, this area has stretches like this – it’s not unusual for the consistency to be low for days, even weeks. The forecast can always change, but right now, there are no good surf options in the 16-day window. The combined swell energy never cracks triple digits; it stays in the weak zone for the entire period. If you’re desperate, the only suggestion I have is the morning of Sunday 26 July – but keep your expectations on the floor. Otherwise, save the wax and wait for the next proper swell.
Stay tuned, and keep an eye on the sky.
Rusty.

Information about the Focene or Baraonda Surf forecast
