Alright, Rusty here. Let's talk about what's on the menu for Broome over the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, the outlook for Gantheaume Point (Broome) is a tough one. We’ve got a solid stretch ahead with barely a ripple to get excited about. The place rarely breaks, and this forecast is proving exactly why. For the first week, from Sunday the 12th through to Saturday the 26th of July, we're looking at tiny, ankle-snapping swell. The sea's clean most days thanks to offshore and cross-off breezes, especially a few glassy moments on Tuesday the 14th afternoon when the wind drops to nothing. But the problem is the energy—the combined energy of all swells sits at a weak 3 to 7 for almost the entire period. That’s barely a bump.
The swell direction is mainly from the west, which matches the optimum, but the height is stuck at 0.33 ft and the period is a middling 12 to 14 seconds. It's the kind of weak groundswell that’s just not enough to wake the reef up. You'd be floating more than surfing.
There's a slight flicker on Saturday the 26th afternoon when a tiny 1.3 ft lump shows up, but the wind switches to a choppy cross-onshore, so it won't be pretty. Then on Sunday the 27th morning it drops back to 0.33 ft with a pathetic 5-second period—basically wind chop.
So, what’s the standout? There isn’t one, really. The best of a bad bunch is probably Tuesday the 14th afternoon, when the wind goes glassy and the water is clean. You might get a knee-high wobble if you’re patient. But calling it a standout feels like a stretch. For the whole 16-day window, there’s no real surf to chase. If you’re a kite surfer, the breezy afternoons from the 22nd onwards might look more interesting than a paddle session.
Water temp here is about average for this time of year, so no surprises on that front.
Stay hopeful, but pack a book.
