The Lowdown
Alright, surfers, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on the menu for the next couple of weeks.
Right off the bat, I gotta be straight with you – the surf is going to be a real struggle. We’re looking at a long stretch of weak, messy conditions that are more about frustration than fun. The good news is there’s a little window of hope right at the end of the first week, but we’ve got to earn it.
The first bit of surf worth paddling for is on Friday, July 31st. The swell gets a bit of a kick, with some 5ft to 5ft waves rolling in from the south. The period is a short 14 seconds, so it’s not the most organized, but it’s the most energy we’ve seen all week, with wave energy hitting 1090. The wind on Friday morning is a light offshore from the south, which is a major positive for clean walls. This is the standout of the forecast, but it’s still a gamble. The water is a toasty 71°F – a massive 8°F above normal, which is very unusual for this time of year.
After that, it’s a rapid fade. By Saturday, August 1st, the swell drops to 4ft, and the wind turns cross-shore and gets stronger. From Sunday, August 2nd, all the way through to Sunday, August 10th, we’re looking at a brutal run of tiny, weak surf. Wave heights are mostly under 2ft, and the energy levels are pathetic, often in the double digits or low hundreds. The wind is all over the place – cross-on, onshore, and choppy. It’s just not worth getting wet.
The only break in the data is Heavens. It’s a beginner-friendly, very consistent spot that’s exposed to the SW swell. The crowds can be around sometimes, so you won't be alone in the water. The optimum swell direction is SW, so the Friday swell is coming from the right direction. But honestly, for 90% of this forecast, the waves are too small and the wind is too messy. The setup is a beach, so with the poor quality and wind, this is looking more like a kiteboarder’s session than a paddle surfer’s for most of the period.
If you’re a beginner, the Friday morning window might be your best bet if you can handle a bit of a bigger swell (5ft is a bit of a push for a beginner). For everyone else, it’s a long wait for something that might not even fire. The forecast can always change, but right now, this is a blank run.
Rusty.

Information about the Heavens Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Heavens provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Heavens can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Heavens 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 (Heavens) 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 Heavens 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.
