The Lowdown
Gantheaume Point (Broome) is lookin’ like a flat spell, mate. There’s basically nothing on the cards for the next couple of weeks. The water’s sitting at 70.7°, which is a solid 4.9° colder than usual for this time of year — that’s a big deal, so bring the thickest rubber you’ve got if you’re even thinking about a paddle.
The first few days are a total write-off. Friday the 7th, we’ve got a tiny 0.3ft to 1.6ft slop with a cross-onshore breeze, and the swell energy is barely registering at 5. Saturday’s no better — 0.3ft to 2ft of wind chop, energy still at 8 to 10. Sunday the 9th, the wind swings offshore, but the swell’s still just 0.7ft at 5 seconds, energy down to 5. It cleans up, but there’s nothing to ride. Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, same story — tiny 0.3ft to 2ft dribble, energy never getting past 15. Even when the wind goes offshore and it’s glassy, there’s no push. Thursday the 13th, Friday the 14th, the weekend — still dead. The swell energy is basically zero for a lot of it.
Honestly, this is a blank run. Gantheaume rarely breaks anyway, and this stretch is about as poor as it gets. There’s a little blip of 0.3ft swell with a 20-second period showing up on Wednesday the 19th, energy at 12 to 13, and the morning looks clean with a light cross-offshore breeze. That’s the most promising window in the whole 16 days, but we’re talking about ankle-biters. It might be worth a look in the very early morning before the seabreeze kicks in, but don’t expect much.
The 22nd, Saturday morning, it goes glassy with zero wind, but again, only 0.3ft. It’s a tease.
There are no standouts here. If you’re desperate, wait for the 19th morning, but I wouldn’t hold my breath. The lack of any consistent swell is normal for this area in this window. Forecasts can change, but right now, this is a whole lot of nothing. Stay patient, keep the board in the car, and check back later.
