Alright, Rusty here.
We’ve got a long stretch ahead, but I’ll tell you straight up: if you’re hanging out for a wave at Gantheaume Point (Broome), you’re in for a waiting game. The whole sixteen-day window is flat. There’s not a single worthwhile wave on the cards.
The combined swell energy barely nudges above single digits, maxing out at a weak 6 (that’s 6) on the afternoon of Friday July 10th. The swell height is stuck at a pathetic 0.3 ft, with a long-period groundswell (12 to 17 seconds) from the west, but it’s just not enough to overcome the exposure. The spot rarely breaks as it is, and this run confirms it.
Water temp is sitting at 74°, which is a full 4° cooler than usual for this time of year. It’s a bit of a bite in the water, so bring a spring suit if you’re going for a dip, not a surf.
The winds will be clean enough—often cross-offshore or offshore from the east and southeast, occasionally glassy—but without any swell to work with, it’s just a pretty bay. The first few days are a write-off, and from there it’s just more of the same right through to Sunday July 19th.
Honestly, this stretch looks better for a flat-water paddle or a kitesurf if a breeze kicks up, but paddle surfing? There’s nothing to ride. It’s a long blank run, but that’s not unusual for this spot in winter. Forecasts can change, but right now it’s a solid “sit this one out.”
Stay tuned, but don’t hold your breath.
Rusty.

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

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 Gantheaume Point (Broome) 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.
