The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s get into it. We’ve got a long stretch ahead for Halfpoint/Fullpoint, and honestly, I’m not going to sugarcoat it—this one’s a real tough read. The next two weeks are looking pretty grim, with a whole lot of messy onshore slop and hardly a window of clean surf.
Right off the bat, the pattern is dominated by a strong, persistent ENE wind that just won’t let up. That means the first several days are a write-off. The Thursday and Friday right now are just a mess – strong cross-onshore and cross-shore winds with lumpy, choppy conditions. The swell is short-period and wind-affected, making it a real battle out there. The water temp is sitting at 80°, which is pretty much average for this time of year, so no surprises there.
We have a gap of about four days of pretty poor conditions before we see a little glimmer of hope. The standout in this whole forecast, and really the only time I’d even consider paddling out, is around Tuesday the 28th of July. The wind swings to a cross-offshore direction, and the swell cleans up significantly. We’re looking at a 7ft swell from the ENE with a longer period of 12 seconds, which is proper groundswell. The wave energy is strong at 1543, so there’s plenty of push. The water temp anomaly is normal. This is the best it’s going to get – clean, powerful waves for intermediate surfers. Just be aware, this spot is exposed and the break is fairly consistent, but crowds are often here, so expect some company.
After that brief window, it’s back to the same old story. The wind turns onshore again on Wednesday and we’re back to stormy, messy conditions with risk of thunderstorms. The rest of the first week and into the second week is just a repeat of cross-shore winds and short-period swell. The second week, from August 1st onwards, is a flat, choppy, and generally disappointing run. The swell from the ENE is short-period and wind-battered, with wave energy fluctuating but never really offering a clean ride. The last few days of the forecast into August 7th are dominated by strong cross-onshore winds, making it a total no-go for paddle surfing.
This is a rough one. It’s not often you see such a long stretch of poor conditions. Hang in there, and if you can, aim for that Tuesday the 28th of July.
Rusty.

Very soon you may start to choose your surf days based on the wave energy alone combined with our forecast of favourable offshore wind conditions. Our star ratings will help here and of course you will also find the usual wave height and period predictions on our surf forecasts as well as a full break down of the swell components under our advanced users option (to reveal that, click the little Einstein character under the tide times).
Further information to help with frequently asked questions about our surf forecast for Halfpoint/Fullpoint may be found under the help tab on the top menu and also by moving your mouse over the question marks on the surf forecast table itself. Please always bear in mind that the forecast is for near-shore open water and local factors at each surf break influence the actual breaking wave height, such as the beach / reef profile, water depths offshore and shelter.
