Table - best surf conditions forecast for Hobson County Park over the next 16 days.
Alright, let’s talk in feet and degrees. This is a grim one from Rusty. The next 16 days at Hobson County Park are a total bust. The forecast is plastered with “poor surf conditions” from start to finish, so there’s no real standout session. The first day is a dud, and it stays that way for a long stretch.
The first record is for Wednesday, 8 July, and it’s flat. The water is a touch warmer than normal at 65°, but that’s no help. The swell is tiny. There’s a gap of nothing but poor conditions until the 22nd of July—that’s a solid two weeks of nothing.
The only sessions that even get a score of 1 are the afternoon of Wednesday, 8 July, and the afternoon of Wednesday, 22 July. Both are “marginal” with questionable tide. On the 8th afternoon, it’s 0.7m (that’s about 2ft) of SSW swell, with a 16-second period. The energy is moderate (403). The wind is a light cross-onshore from the SW. It’s a reef break, so that long period might wrap, but the size is too small.
On the 22nd afternoon, it’s 0.8m (about 3ft) of SSW swell, 15-second period, with a light onshore wind from the SW. The energy is moderate (286). Again, marginal at best. The water is a touch warmer than normal for the time of year, but with waves this small and weak, the whole setup looks more interesting for a kite surfer than a paddle surfer, especially when the wind is onshore.
There’s no true standout. The best bet is those two marginal afternoons, but they’re not worth the drive. The swell direction is close to the optimum WNW, but the size is just too small and the conditions are poor. Keep the board in the garage for now.
Rusty.

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