The Lowdown
Alright, let’s get straight into it.
Honestly, looking at the next couple of weeks, we are in for a pretty flat and frustrating stretch. The swell window is just not lining up for us at Jetty Park. The energy coming in is weak, and the direction is all wrong for this spot – it’s mostly out of the east-southeast, which doesn’t do us any favors.
The first real chance of anything rideable kicks off on the morning of Wednesday the 12th. We’re talking about tiny 1ft waves at 6 seconds. It’s clean, with a light offshore wind, and the water’s a balmy 85°, which is pretty normal for this time of year. But honestly, it’s just not enough to get excited about. It’s a dribble, not a wave.
We’ll see a few days of this super small stuff, with the swell never really pushing past 2ft. There’s a bit more energy building around Sunday the 16th with the combined energy hitting 38, but it’s still just ankle-biters. The wind switch to a light cross-offshore Sunday morning is nice, but the swell just isn’t there.
The highlight, such as it is, looks like Wednesday the 19th. The swell bumps up to 2ft on the morning, and the period stretches to 11 seconds. It’s not big, but it’s the most organized swell we’ve seen, with a combined energy of 60. It’s a bit cross-shore, but it’s light. This is about as good as it gets, and it’s still a marginal day on a longboard.
After that, it drops back off again. We get some glassy moments on Thursday the 20th and Friday the 21st, but the swell is just not there to take advantage of it. A real tease.
The long-range stuff out around Wednesday the 26th and Thursday the 27th does show a bit of a pulse from the east-northeast, but the periods are short and the energy is still weak. It’s too far out to get excited about, and even if it does show, the size is still looking minimal.
Honestly, if you’re determined to get wet, grab a foamie and a friend, because the lineup is going to be empty. It’s so small that if the wind picks up in the afternoon from the southeast, it’s going to be blown out and choppy – maybe more fun for a kite than a paddleboard. But it's all about the long, clean lulls and just enjoying the ocean right now.
It’s a poor run, but that’s the way it goes. Forecasts can change, and this spot’s been known to light up out of nowhere. Keep an eye on it.

Information about the Jetty Park Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Jetty Park provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Jetty Park can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Jetty Park surf forecast is unique since it includes wave energy (power) that defines the real feel of the surf rather than just the height or the period. If you surf the same spot (Jetty Park) regularly then make a mental note of the wave energy from the surf forecast table each time you go. Very soon you may start to choose your surf days based on the wave energy alone combined with our forecast of favourable offshore wind conditions. 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 Jetty Park 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. Please always bear in mind that the forecast is for near-shore open water and local factors at each surf break influence the actual breaking wave height, such as the beach / reef profile, water depths offshore and shelter.
