The Lowdown
Alright, this is Rusty, and I’m looking at the Broome region for the next 16 days. Let’s be straight with you, mate – it’s a tough outlook. The only break on the map is Gantheaume Point, and she’s a fickle one, described as “rarely breaks,” which is exactly what we’re seeing here.
The whole 16-day window is a flat spell. There’s literally no surf to ride. The first few days from the 17th of July kick off with a tiny 0.3ft westerly dribble, but it’s so weak the combined energy is only 3, and the data calls it “poor surf conditions.” That little flicker of swell hangs around until the 22nd, but it’s never enough to get excited about. After the 22nd, it goes completely flat – zero swell, zero energy, right through to the 1st of August. The water’s running a bit colder than usual for this time of year, sitting at 73°, which is a degree or two off the average.
Because there’s no swell, none of these days are a go. The wind is often offshore or clean, but that doesn’t mean a thing when there’s no wave to catch. This is a classic blank run for the area – when Gantheaume Point is out, it’s out. For a surfer, there’s nothing to pack a board for. If you’re desperate for a paddle, maybe a longboard on a lake, but for waves? Forget it. This setup looks more interesting for a kite than a paddle.
