The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s cookin’ for the next couple of weeks.
To be straight with you, this is a pretty grim run. We’re staring down the barrel of a long stretch with almost nothing to get excited about. The first real surf window is gonna be a long wait, and even then, it’s tiny.
I’ll start with the only spot on the cards: Gantheaume Point (Broome). This is a beach and point setup, but it’s a fickle one – it rarely breaks. The water’s sitting at 73°, which is a bit colder than normal for this time of year, so you might want a spring suit.
The first few days are a total write-off. From Monday the 20th of July right through to the end of the month, there’s just nothing. The swell is flat, and the energy is non-existent, with combined energy readings of just 2 to 4. It’s just a flat, clean lake out there. The winds are often offshore or cross-offshore, which would be magic if there were any waves, but there aren’t. That’s a solid 11-day gap with no surf to speak of.
Now, we finally get a tiny pulse of energy rolling in on Saturday, the 1st of August. The swell is a pathetic 0.3 ft from the West, with a period of 18 seconds. That’s a very long period groundswell, but it’s just too small to do anything. The combined energy is only 8. Saturday morning looks glassy with a light offshore, which is a cruel tease. Sunday the 2nd is similar, with a 0.3 ft West swell but a shorter period of 14 seconds, and energy of 4. It’s clean, but it’s still flat.
Honestly, for the entire 16-day outlook, there isn’t a single standout. The best "surf" on offer is that tiny bump on the 1st of August, but 0.3 ft is barely a ripple. It’s not worth paddling out for. This is a classic case of a region that just goes quiet. It tends not to stay this poor forever, but for now, keep the board in the car and wait for the next proper swell.
Rusty.
