Alright, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s coming down the pipe for the next couple of weeks.
Right off the bat, I’ve got to be straight with you – this is a flat spell. There’s nothing on the cards for the entire 16-day window. The combined energy of all swells directed here for the first eleven days is a measly 3 to 9 (weak energy), and after that it drops to zero. Those are numbers you see when the ocean is just about asleep. The swell height is a pathetic 0.3 ft for most of it, and the period is long, between 12 and 17 seconds, but with no height to speak of, that’s just a long-period ripple.
We’re looking at Gantheaume Point (Broome), a beach and point set-up that rarely breaks. For the first recorded day, Thursday 9th July, the water’s sitting at 74°, which is a bit colder than normal for this time of year, about 3° off the average. The wind is cross-offshore and moderate, so it’s clean, but there’s just nothing to ride. The same story repeats every single day: clear skies, cross-off or offshore breezes, and zero surfable waves. The swell direction is from the W, which is the optimum direction for this spot, but it doesn’t matter when the size is a microscopic 0.3 ft.
There’s no standout session here, no best on offer. It’s a complete blank run. For a spot that’s already inconsistent and rarely breaks, this kind of flat spell isn’t entirely unusual. If you’re desperate for a paddle, the cleanest conditions come on the Sunday afternoon (12th July) and Monday afternoon (13th July) with light offshore winds, but you’ll still be floating on a lake. Honestly, the set-up looks more interesting for a kite surfer than a paddle surfer, just because the wind is consistent, but for a traditional surfer, there’s nothing doing.
Forecasts can change, but right now, I’d say leave the board at home.
Rusty.
