The Lowdown

Hey folks, it's Rusty.

Well, I gotta be straight with you. Looking at the next 16 days for Broome, it's a bit of a tough stretch. The main spot in the game is Gantheaume Point, a classic beach and point setup, but it's a break that rarely breaks, and unfortunately, this forecast window is a prime example of that. The problem is a simple one: we just don't have any swell to work with. For the entire 16-day period, the swell heights are tiny, barely pushing 2ft or 2ft at best, and most of the time it's a measly 0.3ft. The combined energy is consistently weak, with values like 1, 2, or 5, and only occasionally hitting double digits, like a weak 100 on the 13th of September. There is no period where the surf is good enough to even recommend. There's a massive gap of no surf at all from now through the entire forecast.

The only real standout, if you can call it that, is a short window on the morning of Sunday the 13th. The combined energy jumps to 100 (moderate wave energy) for a moment, and the swell period is a very long 17 seconds, which is a proper groundswell. But it's coming from a cross-on wind direction, so the quality would be poor. Water temps are sitting at a warm 79°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year.

Honestly, for the whole 16-day run, the conditions are consistently described as "poor surf conditions." The wind is mostly a cross-on affair, chopping up what little bump there is. There's no decent swell, no clean windows. The more exposed beach setup might look interesting for the kite surfers, but for a paddle surfer, it's a total write-off. It's a blank run, which is pretty normal for this area when the swell is this flat.

Rusty.
