The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s coming down the line for the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, I gotta be straight with you – this is a pretty quiet stretch for Focene. We’ve got a long gap of flat or near-flat conditions right through the start of the period. The first proper surfable waves don’t show up until the 31st of July, so we’re looking at about a two-week wait with nothing really worth paddling out for. The energy is just not there, with most days showing combined swell energy of just 1 to 43 (weak), and the wave comment is almost always "poor surf conditions." It’s a real bummer for a while.
The first hint of something is on the 22nd of July, Wednesday morning. We get a little bump of 3 ft from the NNW with a short period of 5 seconds, and the combined energy is 43 (weak). The wind is cross-off from the NNE at 12 mph, so it’ll be clean looking, but the swell is small and weak. It’s not really a standout, just a little tease.
The real window opens on the 31st of July, Friday morning. Finally, we get some surfable waves. The swell picks up to 3 ft from the SW, period 5 seconds, and the combined energy hits 41 (weak). The wind is light from the NE at 3 mph, near glassy, so the surface will be clean. That’s the best of the whole run, honestly. The waves are still very ordinary, but at least you can get wet.
Then on the 1st of August, Saturday morning, we see a similar 3 ft from the WSW with a slightly longer period of 6 seconds, and combined energy of 78 (weak). The wind is light cross-off from the ENE at 6 mph, so again, clean conditions. This is the other half-decent window. The morning is the time to go both days, as the afternoons get a cross-on wind that messes it up.
So, the standout option is Focene or Baraonda, and it’s really just those two mornings – the 31st of July and 1st of August. The water temperature is about average for the time of year, so nothing unusual there. This spot is a beginner-friendly beach break, fairly consistent, but it’s exposed to the SW, and the optimum swell direction is SW. The small size (3 ft) is fine for learners, and the crowds can be around, so expect some company. The main thing is the wind is light and clean, making for a peaceful session if you time it right.
Rusty.

Information about the Focene or Baraonda Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Focene or Baraonda provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Focene or Baraonda can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Focene or Baraonda 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 (Focene or Baraonda) 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 Focene or Baraonda 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.
