Table - best surf conditions forecast for Gantheaume Point (Broome) over the next 16 days.
Right then, let’s have a look at what’s on the cards for the Broome region. I’ll be straight with you – we’re looking at Gantheaume Point (Broome) here, and the 16-day outlook is a bit of a quiet one.
The water temp’s sitting at 74°, which is a bit colder than normal for this time of year – you might want that extra mm of rubber if you’re heading out.
The overall pattern is a long stretch of tiny surf. From Wednesday the 8th of July right through to Thursday the 23rd of July, we’ve got a constant run of 0.3 ft swell coming from the west. The energy is weak, with combined swell energy values ranging from just 1 to 9. There’s no decent size to get excited about. The best you can hope for is clean conditions with offshore winds, like we see on several afternoons – Saturday the 11th has a gentle offshore, Sunday the 12th a light offshore, and there are a few more scattered through the second week. But even with clean lines, 0.3 ft is barely a ripple.
This break does rarely break, and this forecast proves it. For the entire period, the wave comment is consistently "poor surf conditions" with scores of 0 out of 10. There’s no standout window, no one day to circle on the calendar. We’ve got a 16-day gap with nothing worth paddling out for.
Honestly, the setup looks more interesting for a kite surfer than a paddle surfer through this whole run, given the persistent cross-off and offshore winds and negligible wave height. Forecasts can change, but right now, it’s a flat spell.
