The Lowdown
G’day, I’m Rusty. Let’s talk Injidup Carpark (reef break) for the next 16 days. The water’s at 67°F – a touch warmer than normal for this time of year.
The forecast starts flat. Friday the 17th brings a 7ft WSW swell at 12 seconds, but a cross-shore N wind at 12 mph messes it up. The combined energy is moderate (1464). Friday afternoon goes worse – poor. Saturday the 18th pumps up to 16ft swell, but the wind is howling from the W at 25 mph, cross-onshore and messy. Combined energy is through the roof (8775–12263). This is kite territory, not paddle.
Sunday the 19th is 10ft WSW swell, 14-second period, but still cross-on wind. The morning is marginal, the afternoon improves slightly. Not a standout.
Monday the 20th morning is the first good one – 8ft SW swell, glassy conditions, wind from the N at 3 mph. Clean. Excellent for experienced surfers. The afternoon goes onshore, so get it early.
Tuesday the 21st morning is clean again – 8ft SW at 14 seconds, cross-off SSE wind at 9 mph. Very good. Wednesday the 22nd morning is the best of the first week – 10ft SW swell, 13-second period, cross-off ENE breeze at 3 mph, clean. Combined energy is strong (3357). This is a standout for experienced surfers.
Thursday the 23rd and Friday the 24th drop off. Saturday the 25th brings two clean sessions – 7ft WSW swell, cross-off wind, both excellent. Sunday the 26th offers a glassy morning with 4ft SW swell, 18-second period, offshore SE wind at 3 mph. Clean and small.
Then a lull through the 28th. Wednesday the 29th gets big again – 10ft WSW at 19 seconds, but cross-on wind at 19 mph, poor. Thursday the 30th is borderline.
The long-range highlight is Friday the 31st – morning with 7ft WSW swell, cross-off ENE wind, clean. The afternoon goes glassy with 6ft WSW swell, 18-second period, no wind – a dream for the reef. Saturday the 1st of August brings a massive 13ft WSW swell at 18 seconds, combined energy over 10,000 – clean in the morning with cross-off NE wind. That’s only for experts. This is a promising long-range call, but it’s a week and a half away.
This spot is inconsistent – it doesn’t always fire. The standout is Wednesday the 22nd morning, with Saturday the 25th and Friday the 31st as solid runners-up. Stay safe out there.
Rusty.

A general guide to surfing at Injidup Carpark can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu.
