Injidup Point Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright mates, Rusty here. Let’s break down what Injidup Point is serving up over the next couple of weeks. We got some proper days coming, but also some junk to dodge.

We kick things off this Sunday morning, August 9th. It’s on. We’ve got a solid 16ft SW groundswell with a long 16-second period. The combined energy is strong at 12163 (moderate to strong). Water temp is running 67°F, a touch warmer than normal for this time of year. It’s a bit of a beast, but for the advanced surfers, this is a proper start. Wind is a cross-off at 25 km/h, keeping things clean. The afternoon backs off a touch to 15ft, but still plenty of grunt.

Monday the 10th is a full-on write-off. The wind jumps to a near gale at 50 km/h, and while the swell is still pushing through, it’s just going to be a howling, messy disaster. Not worth paddling out.

Now, Tuesday the 11th is a standout. The swell bumps up to 18ft in the morning with a 16-second period, and the energy is pumping at 14883 (strong). Wind is a cross-off at 25 km/h. It’s big, it’s powerful, and it’s clean – strictly for the experienced crew. The afternoon backs down to 16ft, but still solid.

Wednesday and Thursday drop down to 12ft, but the quality is fantastic. Wednesday has a light breeze, and Thursday morning looks glassy, barely a breath of wind. That Thursday morning, with 12ft of 16-second SW groundswell, is a gem. The long period will wrap nicely around the point. Another highlight for the advancers.

Friday the 14th, the wind goes onshore and it starts to get messy. The swell is easing off, and the quality drops right away. Saturday and Sunday, the 15th and 16th, are poor, with onshore winds and just lumpy, weak surf. A couple of days to stay on the beach.

But then, mark this one. Monday the 17th looks like the biggest standout of the entire forecast. We’ve got a 16ft WSW groundswell, but the period is a massive 17 seconds. The energy is the strongest of the whole run at 15068 (strong to very strong). The morning wind is a gentle cross-off at 15 km/h, which will make it glassy. This is a proper, powerful, long-period groundswell. This is the one to really circle on the calendar. Remember, it’s over a week away, so it’s promising, but we’ll need to keep a close eye on it. The afternoon gets more cross-on, but the morning will be the window.

Tuesday the 18th is junk again with strong onshores and lumpy conditions. Wednesday the 19th sees the swell back to 16ft with a moderate cross-off, so it’s cleaner, but the energy is dropping.

Thursday the 20th looks like a solid, clean option with 12ft of WSW swell and a gentle offshore wind in the morning. It’s not huge, but it’ll be fun and clean.

From Friday the 21st onward, the wind swings onshore to the north, and the surf quality drops off a cliff. The swell is small and the conditions are poor. A blank run to finish off the outlook. Looks like we’ll be waiting for the next storm after the 24th.

So, the standouts are Tuesday the 11th for pure power and Monday the 17th for what could be the best combination of size and period. Don’t overlook Thursday the 13th for a glassy, clean session either. Otherwise, choose your windows wisely.

Rusty out.
