The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s get straight into it. The forecast for JT Flemming over the next 16 days is a tough one. We’re looking at a long, dry spell with very little to get excited about. The first real surfable day doesn’t show up until Wednesday, July 29th, and even then it’s a real struggle to find a window.
The first recommendation is Wednesday afternoon, July 29th. We’ve got a little 4ft swell from the NE, with a short period of 8 seconds. The combined energy is moderate (229). The wind is a light E breeze at 6 mph, blowing cross-offshore, which will keep the surface clean. It’s surfable, but the conditions are very ordinary. The water temperature is 79°, which is about average for the time of year.
After that, it’s a grim run. From Thursday, July 30th, right through to Tuesday, August 12th, we’re looking at poor surf conditions day after day. The wind just stays on it, and the waves are a mess. By Wednesday, August 5th, the swell drops right off, with combined energy falling to 78 (weak) and the swell down to 2ft. It’s a real bummer. There’s a brief moment on Tuesday morning, August 4th, where the swell shows a bit of promise with a long period of 11 seconds and moderate energy (366), but the wind is still cross and conditions are only marginal. It’s not worth the paddle.
The worst part? There’s a gap of over a week with no real quality on offer. The wave energy peaks on Saturday, August 1st, with a combined energy of 574 (strong) and 7ft swell, but it’s all cross-shore wind and lumpy, choppy junk. That setup is more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing.
The only other flicker of hope comes on Saturday, August 8th, with a morning session. The wind turns cross-offshore again, but the swell is only 4ft from the ENE with a short period of 7 seconds. The energy is moderate (314), but the conditions are only marginal. It’s a gamble.
The best of a bad bunch is that first Wednesday afternoon, July 29th. It’s the only time the wind gives us a clean look with a bit of size. The swell direction is off the NE, but the optimum for JT Flemming is from the NNW, so it’s not hitting the point perfectly. It’s rarely breaks here, and when it does, crowds are possible. Honestly, for a beginner-friendly point, this is a tough stretch. It tends not to stay this poor for long, but this run is a real test of patience.
Rusty, signing off.

Our star ratings will help here and of course you will also find the usual wave height and period predictions on our surf forecasts as well as a full break down of the swell components under our advanced users option (to reveal that, click the little Einstein character under the tide times).
Further information to help with frequently asked questions about our surf forecast for JT Flemming may be found under the help tab on the top menu and also by moving your mouse over the question marks on the surf forecast table itself.
