Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's talk about Halfpoint/Fullpoint, and I gotta be straight with you – it is not looking great out there.
Right off the bat, from Wednesday the 8th of July all the way through to Wednesday the 22nd of July, we're looking at a tough run. The wind is a real problem. It's locked in from the ENE, anywhere from 18 to 25 mph, and it's either fresh or strong, blowing cross or cross-onshore for almost every single session. That means the wave face is going to be lumpy, choppy, and messy. The best swell we see in that first stretch is around 7 ft on the Wednesday afternoon, but with 25 mph cross-shore winds, it's just a washout. The combined energy is moderate to moderate-strong, hitting values like 718 and 708, but with that wind, it doesn't matter – it's a battle zone, not a surf session.
The second half of the period doesn't give us much relief. From Wednesday the 15th of July onward, the swell drops off to around 5 to 6 ft, and while the wind stays in the same nasty range, we also start seeing some weaker, short-period ENE swell. A couple of days around the 19th and 20th of July show a glimpse of longer-period swell from the south, 2 ft with 15 to 16-second period and combined energy around 585 and 484, but the wind is still a fresh cross-shore, so that groundswell won't have a clean face to show off. It will likely break too straight for a beach setup like this, and the wind will kill any real quality.
To be honest, looking at this whole 16-day run, there's nothing I can point to and say "paddle out." The wind is the main villain here. With that steady ENE breeze, the setup actually looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing for most of the period. Water temperature is about average for this time of year. This is just one of those blank runs we have to swallow. Forecasts can change, but for now, leave the boards in the car.
Rusty.

Information about the Halfpoint/Fullpoint Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Halfpoint/Fullpoint provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Halfpoint/Fullpoint can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Halfpoint/Fullpoint surf forecast is unique since it includes wave energy (power) that defines the real feel of the surf rather than just the height or the period. If you surf the same spot (Halfpoint/Fullpoint) regularly then make a mental note of the wave energy from the surf forecast table each time you go. 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.
