The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s call it how it is.
Gantheaume Point (Broome) is a beach and point that rarely breaks, and this 16-day window is a total write-off for surf. The combined energy of any swell directed here is basically zero to 5 (weak energy), swell heights are a joke – 0.3 ft to 1 ft at best – and even those tiny pulses are let down by wind and period. There is no stand-out, no hidden gem, nothing. The first week from July 27 to August 1 is completely flat or just wind-lashed chop. Mornings are clean but empty thanks to east winds 12 to 19 mph, and afternoons turn onshore. Into the second week, a few mornings show 0.3 ft of west swell with so little energy it’s not worth the paddle, and the afternoons just get trashed by north-west winds up to 16 mph.
Water temp is 71°, which is about 5° colder than normal – that’s weirdly cold, so you’d want a hood and gloves if you were masochistic enough to go out. Even the morning of August 8 with glassy conditions and 0.3 ft west swell is a flat, glassy pond, not a wave.
If you’re a kite surfer, maybe the afternoon wind and a little chop on the surface could work. For a surfer, this is a 16-day gap of nothing. It happens here, but it stings.
Rusty.
