The Lowdown
Howdy, Rusty here again. Let’s call it like it is – the next 16 days are proper flat out in the Broome region. Don’t bother waxing up just yet.
The only spot in the mix is Gantheaume Point (Broome), but it’s a tough one. This break *rarely breaks* anyway, and right now it’s offering next to nothing. Swell is stuck at a tiny 0.3ft out of the west with a long period, but the combined energy is weak as – numbers like 3 to 6 (weak energy) from Thursday July 16th through Saturday the 18th. Then after that, from July 23rd right up to the 29th, it’s a total blank – over a week of zero surf. The water temperature is about average for this time of year.
Way out at the tail end, on Thursday July 30th, we see the period stretch to a very long 19 seconds and energy bump to 10, but it’s still just 0.3ft. That’s not a wave, that’s a ripple.
Winds are offshore or cross-off most days, which would be fantastic if there was any swell to push around. But with the energy this weak and the break inconsistent, there’s just nothing going on. Honestly, this setup looks more appealing for kite surfing than paddle surfing – plenty of wind, no waves.
So there you go. No standout, no recommendation. It’s a dry spell, but that’s not unusual here when the ocean shuts down. Forecasts can change, so don’t lose hope completely, but don’t hold your breath either.
Rusty.

A general guide to surfing at Gantheaume Point (Broome) can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Gantheaume Point (Broome) 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 (Gantheaume Point (Broome)) 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 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.
