Injidup Point Surf Forecast and Surf Report

G’day, Rusty here, and we’ve got a solid run of swell coming down the line for Injidup Point. This is a classic Southwest point break setup, so it handles the bigger groundswells beautifully, but it’s advanced-only territory when it gets serious. No beginner stuff here once it’s over 5 feet.

The water temp is sitting about average for this time of year, so no surprises there – just your usual winter chill.

The first real action kicks off Friday morning, 10 July. A clean 8 ft SW swell, with light offshore winds out of the south-southwest, makes for a proper session. The wave energy is strong (2558), and the period is a solid 13 seconds, so you’ve got proper groundswell lines peeling down the point. Crowds are possible, so get in early for the cleanest ones.

Friday afternoon holds at 6 ft with the same offshore flow, still very good.

Saturday, 11 July, is a step up. Morning brings 8 ft SW, 13-second period, and a gentle offshore breeze. That’s the sweet spot – plenty of power but not crazy. The afternoon jumps to 10 ft, so it’s starting to get serious for experienced surfers only.

Sunday, 12 July, is where it gets loud. The morning is 10 ft SW with a 14-second period and light cross-offshore winds. The energy is very strong (4601). The afternoon is the standout of the first week: 12 ft SW, a massive 17-second period, and the combined energy hits 8181. That’s proper groundswell, so it’s going to be long, powerful walls – but at a point break like Injidup, that’s what you want. The wind is cross-off, so it’s clean. Just be aware, with that period, the sets will be spaced out and the paddle out is easier between them.

Monday, 13 July, keeps the momentum. 12 ft SW, 16-second period, and glassy offshore winds in the morning. The afternoon is still clean with a light breeze. This is world-class, expert-only surf.

Tuesday, 14 July, starts to fade. The swell drops to 10 ft but the wind turns cross-onshore, making it choppy. It’s a bit of a mess, but still big.

Wednesday, 15 July, is a write-off. Strong onshore winds and rain ruin the shape. The same goes for Thursday, 16 July, with cross-onshore winds and choppy conditions.

Now, Friday, 17 July, is a weird one. The swell is 12 ft and the wind is cross-offshore, but it’s a near gale – 31 mph. That’s kite-surfing territory, not paddle surfing. Forget it.

The true standout of the whole outlook is Saturday, 18 July. The morning swell is a massive 16 ft from the WSW, but the wind is fresh offshore from the south, keeping it clean. The energy is enormous (12254). The afternoon is even bigger: 20 ft SW, 14-second period, and moderate offshore winds. The energy smashes 13798. That is exceptional surf for expert surfers only. If you’ve got the balls and the skill, that’s the day.

Sunday, 19 July, drops back to 13 ft in the morning with a light cross-onshore breeze, but the afternoon goes glassy – 10 ft, calm winds, and clean. A beautiful end to the swell.

The second week has some smaller windows. Monday, 20 July, is onshore junk. Tuesday, 21 July, afternoon shows a clean 7 ft SW swell with offshore winds – worth a look. Wednesday, 22 July, is clean and 10 ft WSW, a solid option. Thursday, 23 July, is cross-onshore and messy.

Friday, 24 July, is clean again with a 7 ft SW swell and light offshore winds. Saturday, 25 July, ends the outlook with a 12 ft SW, 17-second period, but a light cross-onshore breeze – it’s still surfable, just not perfect.

So, bottom line: don’t sleep on Saturday, 18 July. That’s the one for the big-wave crew. The rest of the run has plenty of good days, but that Saturday is the true standout.

Rusty.
