The Lowdown
G’day, Rusty here, and I’ve gotta be straight with you—this outlook is a tough one. Looking at the next 16 days, we’ve got a whole lotta nothing on offer. Gantheaume Point (Broome) is a beach and point setup that *rarely breaks*, and that’s exactly what we’re seeing. There isn’t a single standout session in the entire window. The first few days, from July 26th right through to the start of August, are all showing no wave height or just a tiny 0.3ft of swell with basically no energy (combined energy of all swells directed here is only 4 on the morning of the 26th). The water temperature is sitting at 71.8°, which is 4.3° colder than normal for this time of year—that’s a notable chill, so plan on a thicker wetsuit if you’re foolhardy enough to sit out there.
From the afternoon of July 27th, through the 28th, 29th, 30th, and 31st, and even into August 1st, the swell is completely absent. Plenty of days show a “-” for swell height and zero energy. There’s a gap of several days here where you’d just be bobbing around. A few mornings do have clean conditions with offshore or cross-offshore wind, like July 27th morning with 16 mph from the east, or July 30th morning with 19 mph from the east, but without any swell, it’s not surf.
On August 2nd, there’s a tiny 0.3ft to 1ft swell showing, but the period is a pathetic 2 seconds on the afternoon—that’s garbage, with a combined energy of just 1. The wind is cross-on or onshore, so it’s choppy and messy. Not worth a paddle.
Later on, August 4th to the 10th, the swell stays tiny—0.3ft to 1ft at best—with periods occasionally hitting 12 to 16 seconds on some mornings. Even with that long period, the energy is weak (values between 2 and 6). The best-looking window might be the morning of August 6th, with a 0.3ft swell from the west at a 16-second period and combined energy of 5, but it’s blown out by onshore wind from the northwest at 6 mph. That setup is more interesting for a kite surfer than a paddle surfer, to be honest.
Overall, there’s no good surf on offer in this 16-day stretch. Gantheaume Point rarely breaks, and this blank run is pretty normal for the area when the swell just doesn’t show. Hang tight, mate—forecasts can change, but for now, keep your gear dry.
