Injidup Point Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright, mate, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s coming down the pipe for Injidup Point.

We’ve got a window of surf on offer, but it’s a mixed bag for the next couple of weeks. The water is sitting at 67°, which is a touch warmer than usual for this time of year, so that’s a nice little bonus if you’re getting in.

The real action kicks off on Tuesday, August 4th, but it’s a bit of a tease. Tuesday morning sees a solid 6ft groundswell out of the WSW with a 18-second period, and the wind is cross-offshore. The energy is strong (6692), so it’s got some punch, but the forecast flags it as marginal, likely due to tricky tide. Tuesday afternoon stays the same size but the wind swings cross-shore, making it choppier.

Now, if you’re an expert, Wednesday, August 5th, is your day. This is the standout. We’ve got a 15ft swell from the WSW, holding a 16-second period. The combined energy is massive (10754), and with a light SW breeze turning cross-off, the conditions are clean and prime. This is serious, powerful groundswell. At this size, over 8ft, it’s strictly for experts. Don’t even think about it if you’re not dialed in. The long period (16 seconds) means the sets will have plenty of energy, and at a point break like Injidup, it’s going to line up beautifully. It’s a rare treat.

Thursday, August 6th, the swell drops slightly to 13ft, but the wind swings NNW and cross-on, making it messy and choppy. Not worth it.

Friday, August 7th, is a write-off. 13ft swell but with a risk of thunderstorms and a strong cross-off wind. The wind is howling, and the conditions are sloppy.

Saturday, August 8th, brings a huge 18ft swell from the SW, but the wind is cross-off and the energy is extreme (14668). This is big, powerful, and for very experienced surfers only. The forecast still calls it marginal, so be careful.

Sunday, August 9th, the swell drops back to 13ft with cross-off winds. It’s cleaner, but still a solid, powerful wave.

The next big standout is Wednesday, August 12th. We’ve got a 18ft SW swell (16-second period) with a light cross-off breeze. The energy is massive (14709), and the conditions are clean. This is another day for experts only. The following day, Thursday, August 13th, the swell backs down to 12ft with a light cross-off breeze, making it a more manageable option for experienced surfers.

After that, the swell fades. Friday, August 14th, sees a 5ft swell with a very long 19-second period but light cross-off winds. It’s clean but small. The energy is moderate (2943). Then Saturday, August 15th, has a 10ft SW swell with offshore winds in the afternoon, making it clean and fun.

The final week sees a lot of onshore and cross-onshore winds from the north, with the swell staying around 8ft to 12ft, but the wind will ruin it. Not much to get excited about after August 15th.

So, to sum it up: the cream of the crop is Wednesday, August 5th, for the sheer power and clean conditions, and Wednesday, August 12th, for another dose of big, clean groundswell. Both are for experts only, so be smart out there.

Rusty.
