The Lowdown

Alright, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what Junkyards has in store.

Honestly, it's a rough start. For the next ten days, it’s pretty much dead or blown out. We’ve got a real gap of flat, windy rubbish from the 1st right through to the morning of the 7th of August. Not worth paddling out. Then from the 7th afternoon through the 10th, the wind goes absolutely mental—we’re talking gale and storm-force stuff—and the swell jumps up to a terrifying 34 ft on the 8th of August. That’s not surfing, that’s a survival mission, and even then, the forecast says it’s too big for the break anyway. The 9th and 10th are just a howling, dangerous mess.

The light at the end of the tunnel shows up on Wednesday, the 12th of August. Morning looks like our standout. The swell is a clean 4 ft from the SW with a nice 12-second period, a proper groundswell. The wind goes glassy—dead calm—and the water temp is sitting at 86°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year. That’s the session to circle. Combined energy is moderate, around 803, but the conditions will make it feel way better. Keep in mind, it's a reef break, so that long period (12s) will be groomed nicely.

Thursday the 13th is also looking tidy, with clean 4 ft SW swell and light offshore winds in the morning. Consistent enough, and the reef will handle that long-period energy well. Friday the 14th stays clean but the swell drops off a touch and the period shortens up, so it’ll be weaker. After that, we’re back into choppy onshores for the 15th and 16th, so the window is narrow.

The single standout for the whole outlook is Wednesday morning, the 12th. Glassy conditions, chest-high SW groundswell, and a reef that won’t let you down.

Rusty.

Information about the Junkyards Surf forecast

The above surf forecast table for Junkyards provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Junkyards can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Junkyards 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 (Junkyards) 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 Junkyards 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.
