Injidup Point Surf Forecast and Surf Report

G'day, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what Injidup Point has cookin’ over the next couple weeks.

We start with a bit of a flat start, but Thursday the 23rd of July afternoon is where it kicks off proper. The morning’s a write-off – cross-onshore chop from the NE at 12 mph, 8 ft of SW swell but it’s messy. Then the afternoon turns it right around. The wind goes glassy – N at just 3 mph – and you’ve got a clean 8 ft SW groundswell with a long 14-second period. The combined energy is strong at 1862. That’s a window of glassy perfection for the advanced crew; it’s gonna be clean, powerful, and well-shaped. This is your standout of the whole outlook. Crowds are possible, so get amongst it.

Friday the 24th and Saturday the 25th are a write-off – onshore winds and poor conditions. Sunday the 26th of July is interesting: big 16 ft SW swell cranking with combined energy up at 6090 in the morning and 17752 in the afternoon. The wind is cross-off from the SE and SSE, so it’s clean, but that size is serious – only for advanced surfers. The afternoon session is the pick of that day, with clean faces despite the strong breeze.

Monday the 27th of July morning is another gem: 10 ft SW groundswell, 12-second period, clean with a gentle cross-off breeze from the SE. Combined energy sits at 2733. Excellent for experienced surfers. The afternoon holds 8 ft SW with a very long 16-second period, energy at 4176, but the crossed-off wind is light. The water temp anomaly is not given, so call it average for the time of year.

Tuesday the 28th and Wednesday the 29th are back to choppy cross-onshore slop. Thursday the 30th of July morning has small 3 ft WSW swell with a super-long 20-second period, gentle cross-off breeze, clean – but tiny. The afternoon picks up to 8 ft WSW with 18-second period and a light cross-shore, combined energy 3692. It’s promising but marginal.

Then from Friday the 31st of July through to Wednesday the 6th of August, it’s a long stretch of onshore winds, strong breezes, and poor to marginal conditions. There’s big swell in there – up to 15 ft and 16 ft – but it’s blown out, messy, or cross-onshore. Not worth paddling.

Thursday the 7th of August morning finally offers a chance: 15 ft WSW swell with a strong offshore SSW wind at 25 mph, combined energy 9089. It’s clean and powerful but that offshore is howling, making it hard to paddle into. Only for the hardcore experienced crew.

So overall, the best on offer is Thursday 23rd July afternoon – glassy 8 ft SW groundswell. Second best is Monday 27th July morning with 10 ft clean SW. Everything else is either too windy, too messy, or too big for anyone but experts.
