Alright, Rusty here again. Let’s break it down.
Look, I’m not gonna sugarcoat it – this 16-day stretch is a total flat spell. There’s not a single wave worth paddling for. The swell is microscopic, only 0.3 ft from the west, with wave energy readings between 2 and 6 (weak energy). The only spot in the mix is Gantheaume Point (Broome), a beach and point setup that rarely breaks anyway, and this forecast proves why.
The water temp is 74°, which is about 3° colder than usual for this time of year. You’ll feel that chill.
The first week is a bust. From Monday the 6th of July right through the weekend, every session is showing that same 0.3 ft swell. Winds are mostly cross-offshore from the east or southeast, keeping the surface clean, but there’s nothing to ride. A few afternoons swing cross-onshore and get choppy, but it doesn’t matter on a flat ocean. No standouts.
The second week is no different. From the 13th of July onward, it’s still that 0.3 ft west swell. There are a couple of glassy moments – Tuesday the 14th afternoon and Sunday the 19th morning – which would be magic if we had any waves, but we don’t. By Wednesday the 15th and Thursday the 16th, we get a bit of offshore wind from the east-southeast, which would be perfect, but the swell is missing.
This is just one of those blank runs for the area. Gantheaume Point is a rare breaker, and with a flat spell like this, it’s pretty normal. Honestly, this setup looks more interesting for a kite surfer than a paddle surfer. Leave the board at home and check back later – forecasts can always change.
Rusty.
