Injidup Carpark Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's on the cards for the next couple of weeks. We're focusing on Injidup Carpark, a reef break that's fairly exposed to the swell. The water's sitting at 67°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year.

The outlook kicks off with a bit of a wait. The first few days are a write-off, so don't bother paddling out until at least Monday the 20th. Even then, it's a marginal situation with an 8ft SW swell and light cross-onshore winds. The combined energy is moderate at 1680, but it's not going to be anything special.

The real action starts to build on Tuesday the 21st. We've got a solid 8ft SW groundswell with a 14-second period pushing through. The morning sees a clean, cross-off breeze from the south, making for some decent shape. The energy is picking up to 2822, which is a good sign. This is where things start to get interesting.

Wednesday the 22nd is your standout for the first week. The morning brings a clean 10ft SW swell with a 13-second period, an ENE cross-off breeze, and a combined energy of 3728. It's solid, powerful, and clean. Then, in the afternoon, it gets even better. The wind drops to glassy, flat calm, with the same 10ft SW swell and a longer 14-second period pushing the energy up to 3949. This is excellent surf for experienced surfers – size, power, and perfect conditions. Crowds are possible, as it's a known spot, but on a Wednesday, you might have a bit more room.

After that, the swell dips a bit for Thursday and Friday, with some messy cross-onshore winds, so it's not worth getting too excited about.

The next true standout, and the best on offer for the whole period, is Sunday the 26th. We're looking at a serious 12ft SW groundswell with a very long 17-second period rolling in. The morning sees a clean offshore breeze from the southeast, with the combined energy absolutely pumping at 6866. This is big, powerful, and clean. This is expert territory only – over 8ft, it's for the crew who know what they're doing. The long period is a classic groundswell, perfect for a reef like this, giving you long, powerful lines and plenty of time between sets to get into position.

We get another pulse on the 30th of July, with a 13ft WSW swell and a 16-second period, but the wind is a bit stronger. Still, the energy is massive at 7510, and it's clean, so that's another day for the experienced crew.

The first week of August sees the swell dropping back down to more manageable 6ft to 6ft with clean conditions, but it's more of a fun-sized end to the run.

So, to sum it up: you've got to be patient until Wednesday the 22nd for a solid, clean session, but the absolute standout is Sunday the 26th. That's the one you mark on the calendar. Big, clean, and powerful. The long-range stuff on the 30th and 31st is promising too, but less certain this far out.

Stay safe, and I'll see you in the water.
Rusty.
