The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on the table for the Broome area.
Honestly, mate, I’ve got to be straight with you – this 16-day window is a tough one to call. The only spot on the radar is Gantheaume Point (Broome) , and it’s a tricky one. This place is a beach and point set-up that rarely breaks, so you’re already playing the waiting game. The water’s sitting at 74°, which is a bit colder than usual for this time of year – just a touch of that winter bite in the air.
The first real surf we see is tiny, like 0.3ft, and it’s coming from the west. The combined wave energy is weak at just 3, so there’s hardly any push. The winds are mostly cross-offshore from the east during the mornings, which keeps the surface clean, but there’s just nothing to ride. We’re looking at a gap from the start all the way through the first week.
We finally get a bit of a pulse on Saturday the 18th, with a 0.3ft west swell and a period of 14 seconds – that’s a long period groundswell, which is nice for shape, but it’s still just a whisper. The energy bumps up to 6, still weak. The afternoon on Saturday the 18th shapes up with a gentle offshore from the ESE and clean conditions, but you’ll be scratching for a ride.
The standout moment, if you can call it that, comes on Sunday the 19th of July. We’ve got glassy conditions in the afternoon – wind from the WNW at 0 mph – and a 0.3ft, 13-second west swell. It’s tiny, but that glassy surface is about as good as it gets for a day with no real waves. It’s a total beginner-level day, but only if you’re happy to bob around.
Into the second week, the swell stays tiny or flat. The final week sees a long-period west swell on Sunday the 26th of July, with a 16-second period and combined energy of 5, but it’s still only 0.3ft. The winds turn messy in the afternoon with a cross-shore chop.
So, the honest truth? There’s no standout day here. The best on offer is that glassy Sunday the 19th of July, but it’s more about enjoying the calm water than catching waves. This is a blank run for the area, and it’s not unusual for Gantheaume Point to stay quiet for long stretches. Forecasts can change, but right now, I’d leave the board at home.
Rusty.
