Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s in store for Hobson County Park over the next couple of weeks.
Straight up, I gotta be honest with you – the outlook for Hobson County Park is a tough one. We’ve got a solid 16-day window here, but not a single one of those days is offering up anything worth paddling out for. The whole period is littered with “poor surf conditions,” and the scores across the board are a flat zero. It’s a proper blank run.
The first week is a story of small, weak swell. We’re talking ankle-to-knee high waves, all coming from the SSW. The combined energy is moderate, sitting around 150 to 300 (moderate wave energy), but it’s just not translating into rideable waves here. The wind is mostly onshore or cross-onshore, which is a killer for any chance of a clean face. From Friday, July 3rd through to Sunday, July 12th, you’re looking at swell heights of 1 ft to 2 ft, with periods that are nice and long – 14 to 18 seconds – which *would* be a good sign elsewhere, but the direction is all wrong for this spot. The optimum direction for Hobson County Park is WNW, and we’re getting slammed by SSW and SW all day, every day.
The second week doesn’t get any better. Monday, July 13th and Tuesday, July 14th see a tiny bump from the west, but the period drops to 8-9 seconds, and the energy starts to fade. By Wednesday, July 15th the whole thing just gives up, with waves dropping to 0.7 ft and energy down to a weak 26 (weak wave energy). The wind stays stubbornly onshore or cross-onshore for the entire run.
There are simply no standouts here. No hidden gems. No sneaky morning session. The wind is always against us, the swell is either too small or from the wrong angle, and it’s all rated “poor.” It’s a reef break that’s only for advanced surfers even on a good day, but there’s nothing here for anyone. I wouldn’t even bother waxing the board. It’s one of those stretches where the forecast just has to change, because it can’t stay this flat forever.

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.
