The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at the outlook for Heavens over the next couple of weeks.
Look, I won't sugarcoat it – the next few days are a bit of a struggle. The swell is tiny, and the wind is mostly cross-onshore, making for poor surf conditions. There's a bit of a wait for anything worthwhile.
We do see a slow build from the 19th of July onwards. The Sunday afternoon sees a waist-high 3ft S swell arriving, but the period is a short 13 seconds, so it'll be a bit crumbly. The wind is light cross-onshore, so it's not all bad, and the combined swell energy is ramping up to moderate (764). This is the first time things start to feel a little more interesting.
The real window of opportunity, the standout, starts to shape up from the 23rd of July through the 25th. The 23rd Thursday morning is looking promising with a 5ft S swell at 15 seconds, and a light WSW cross-onshore breeze. The combined energy is strong (1018), so there's some proper push behind it. The 24th Friday afternoon sees the swell nudge up to 5ft from the S, with a gentle cross-shore breeze from the W, making for a cleaner wave. The 25th Saturday morning holds a consistent 5ft S swell with a light cross-onshore breeze, keeping it rideable.
This is a beginner-friendly break, so that 5ft max swell is a good size – not too big, not too small. The water temperature is sitting at 68°F, which is much warmer than normal for this time of year, so you can leave the thick wetsuit at home. For the best chance of a clean wave, I'd aim for the 24th Friday afternoon, when conditions look the most aligned.
Beyond that, into the last week of July, the swell drops back a notch, but there's still some waist-high stuff on offer. The 27th Monday morning has a 4ft SW swell with a long 18-second period, and a light cross-onshore breeze. It's nothing epic, but it's surfable.
Overall, it's a slow start, but there's a solid few days of fun waves from the 23rd to the 25th. Get out there.
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.
