The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s take a look at what’s cookin’ for the next stretch.
Straight up, I’m not gonna sugarcoat it – this is a lean run. We’re looking at a solid 16-day window with barely a ripple to get excited about at Gantheaume Point (Broome). The first few days have a tiny pulse of swell, but it’s practically flat. We’re talking wave heights of just 0.3 ft, and the combined energy of all swells is pathetic – we’re seeing values like 6, 3, and 4, which is weak, weak, weak. It’s not even worth paddling out for.
The water’s sitting at 73°, which is a bit colder than usual for this time of year – feels a touch nippy, but not wild.
The wind is mostly offshore or cross-offshore, which would normally be a beautiful thing, but with no swell to work with, it’s just a tease. The break itself is a beach and point setup, and it’s open to the west-northwest, but there’s nothing coming in from that direction worth mentioning. It’s a real shame because the conditions are clean, but the ocean is just asleep.
Moving into the second week, from the 23rd of July onwards, the swell completely flatlines for several days. We’ve got a gap of about four days straight with zero wave height. Then, around the 26th of July, we see a tiny blip of 0.3 ft again, but it’s the same story – weak energy (4, 3) and just not surfable. The 31st of July shows a little more period (up to 22 seconds) but still only 0.3 ft of swell; it’s long-period, but it’s just a ghost. The energy does bump up slightly to 10, but that’s still nothing for a point break.
This spot is a "rarely breaks" kind of place, and this forecast is a perfect example of why. If you’re hoping for a wave, you’re looking at a long, blank run. The forecasts can change, but right now, there’s nothing to chase.
Rusty.
