G’day, Rusty here. Look, I’ll be straight with you – this outlook for the next couple of weeks is a tough one. We’re looking at a long, dry spell for any decent waves. The first real chance of anything surfable isn’t until later on, so don’t get your hopes up for the early days.

Right off the bat, from now through to the start of July, it’s flat. Seriously flat. We’re talking tiny 0.3ft dribbles from the west, with combined swell energy barely registering (3 to 5 – weak stuff). The wind’s a mixed bag, some mornings glassy or offshore, but with no swell to work with, it’s just a nice day to be on the beach, not in the water. This quiet run sticks around for a good solid week and a half.

There’s one spot on the cards, and it’s *Gantheaume Point (Broome)*, a beach and point break that rarely breaks. And I mean rarely. The whole 16 days is basically a write-off for surf, but towards the end, we see a flicker of hope. The standout, such as it is, comes on the Friday afternoon of the 10th of July. We finally get a tiny pulse – 0.7ft from the west-southwest with a sneaky long period of 18 seconds, pushing the combined energy up to 30 (still weak, but it’s something). The wind will be a clean cross-offshore south-southwesterly at 12 mph. But remember, this is a spot that hardly ever breaks, and with such a long-period swell, it might just wrap in a little too straight for a beach setup, though it could offer a rare, clean little wave at the point. Given the size, it’s beginner-friendly, but be aware the crowds are listed as ‘never’, so if it does break, you’ll have it to yourself.

Other than that one afternoon, the rest of the fortnight is the same story: 0.3ft waves, weak energy, and poor surf conditions across the board. There’s nothing else worth paddling out for. For kite surfers, with the consistent side-offshore winds and tiny surf, the conditions might look more interesting for a session on the water than for a surfer.

Rusty.

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. Please always bear in mind that the forecast is for near-shore open water and local factors at each surf break influence the actual breaking wave height, such as the beach / reef profile, water depths offshore and shelter.
