Alright, Rusty here again. Let's be straight with you. I've had a good look at the forecast for Freshwater east over the next couple of weeks, and honestly, it's a tough one. Every single report through the entire 16-day window is flagged as "poor surf conditions." There's no day that stands out as a good bet for a paddle.
Right from the start, on Saturday July 4th, it's a write-off. We've got tiny 2ft swell from the west, a pretty weak combined energy of just 149, and the water temp is 62°, which is about a touch warmer than normal for this time of year. It's no good.
We roll through the whole first week, and it's the same story. The swell height never climbs above 2ft, and it usually sits around 1ft. The energy readings stay low, mostly in the double-digits or low triple-digits. The wind flips around, so it's not even consistently clean. Sunday the 5th shows a weak 2ft swell with some offshore wind, but the energy is a measly 82 – not worth getting wet for.
The middle of the second week doesn't offer any hope either. By Monday July 13th, the swell drops to a pathetic 0.3ft. It gets a touch bigger on Wednesday July 15th, with a 3ft windswell from the east, but the period is a dreadful 4 seconds, meaning no power at all. The energy is still only 52.
The whole 16-day period is a blank run for decent surf. The breaks here are rarely breaking anyway, so this kind of flat spell is pretty normal for the area. Don't trash your gear over it; forecasts can change, but right now, there's nothing on the table.
Stay tuned. Forecasts shift.
Rusty.

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