The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s heading our way.
First thing you need to know: the water is sitting at 70° right now, which is a solid 7° warmer than normal for this time of year. That’s pretty unusual – feels more like a tropical bathtub than a typical July. Nice.
Honestly, for the next week or so, we’re looking at a pretty flat, sad stretch. The first few days are a write-off. Monday the 20th has a tiny 3ft swell from the S with a period of 11 seconds, but the wind is a messy cross-on and the combined energy is weak (516). Conditions are marginal at best. Tuesday and Wednesday are even worse – poor surf, choppy, and the scores are bottom of the barrel. We’re talking a gap of several days with nothing worth paddling out for.
It’s not until the tail end of the week that we see a glimmer. Thursday morning the 24th has a little 4ft S swell at 13 seconds, with an offshore wind and a bit more energy (963). That’s the cleanest we’ve seen, but it’s still a marginal session. Friday and Saturday stay small and messy, with cross-onshore winds ruining the fun.
Now, if you’ve got patience, the real standout is shaping up for the end of the month and into the start of August. Friday the 31st of July sees a 5ft SSE swell with a 15-second period – that’s proper groundswell energy. The combined energy is strong (1140) and the wind goes cross-shore, so it’ll be a bit lumpy but workable. Then Saturday the 1st of August is the pick of the bunch: a 6ft S swell at 14 seconds, with light offshore winds in the morning. That’s clean, solid, and punchy. The energy is strong (1198) and it’s the best we’ve got in the whole 16-day window. It’s a bit of a wait, but that Saturday morning is the one to circle.
After that, it drops off again. Sunday the 2nd and Monday the 3rd are back to poor conditions with small, weak swells and poor quality. The following Tuesday the 4th has a little bump in size (4ft SSE) but nothing to get excited about.
So, the only real standout is Heavens on Saturday the 1st of August. A 6ft S swell, light offshore wind, decent energy, and a long period meaning good shape. It’s got a bit of size so it’s not for beginners, but for the experienced crew, that’s the window. Crowds are possible here, so get in early.
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.
