The Lowdown
Alright, mate, Rusty here. Let’s have a proper look at what’s on offer for the next couple of weeks.
Straight up – Gantheaume Point (Broome) is a tricky one. It’s a beach and point setup that rarely breaks, and this forecast is a classic example of why. We’ve got a long, flat run ahead. From Wednesday 22 July right through to the start of August, the swell is tiny – about 0.3 ft at best, with a few afternoons showing zero. The wind is often offshore or cross-offshore, but with no wave energy to work with, it’s just a clean, flat ocean. The water temp? No anomaly given, but expect it’s about average for this time of year.
There’s a slight blip on Tuesday 4 August morning: a 1 ft swell from the WSW, short period of 5 seconds, with light offshore wind from the ESE. That’s a windswell, not groundswell, and the combined energy is only 13 – weak. The surf conditions are still labelled “poor” and the score is zero. So nothing to get excited about. After that, it’s back to 0.3 ft dribble.
Honestly, there’s not a single standout in this whole 16-day window. The break is inconsistent at the best of times, and this run is completely blank. It’s not unusual for this area – when it’s flat, it’s flat. Forecasts can change, but for now, keep the board in the shed and maybe go for a fish instead.
Rusty.
