Table - best surf conditions forecast for Hanna Park/Mayport Poles over the next 16 days.
G’day, Rusty here, and I gotta be straight with ya—this stretch ahead is about as flat as it gets. We’re looking at a 16-day window with no real surf to speak of. The only spot on the radar is Hanna Park/Mayport Poles (beach/pier), and it’s a grim run. From Thursday the 9th of July right through to Friday the 24th, every single session is marked as poor surf conditions. That’s a solid two weeks plus of nothing worth paddling out for.
The combined swell energy barely cracks double digits most days, sitting at weak 35 or lower—just sad, tiny leftovers. The swell heights are all under 3 ft, mostly 1 ft or 2 ft, with short periods around 8 seconds or less. Nothing groundswell, nothing with any grunt. Winds are a mixed bag: a few mornings glass off or go light offshore, like Friday the 10th morning (SW 5 km/h, glassy), Sunday the 12th morning (WNW 15 km/h, offshore), or Wednesday the 15th morning (W 5 km/h, glassy). But the surf is so small—1 ft to 2 ft from the ESE—that even clean conditions don’t save it. The water temp is about average for the time of year, nothing wild.
The only flicker of hope is Wednesday the 15th morning. That’s the one session where the rating nudges up to “surfable waves but very ordinary conditions,” with a 1 out of 10. Still tiny—2 ft from the ENE at 8 seconds—but glassy, with the combined energy at 74 (weak). It’s not a standout, it’s just the least bad. Even then, the break is a beach/pier, fairly consistent, exposed to NNE swell, but the swell is coming from the ESE or ENE—not the optimum direction. Crowds are likely here, but with this lack of swell, it’ll be quiet.
Beyond that, every afternoon turns into a cross-onshore mess—SE winds at 20–25 km/h making it choppy and sloppy. This setup is honestly more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing on those afternoons. It’s a long blank run, but for this area, that’s not unusual. Forecasts can change, but as it stands, I’d leave the board at home. Rusty.
