Table - best surf conditions forecast for Lambe Lambe over the next 16 days.
Alright, folks, Rusty here. Let's dig into the 16-day picture for Lambe Lambe.
Right out of the gate, it's pretty grim. Saturday the 11th and then a long stretch from Wednesday the 15th through Saturday the 18th are all blown out with onshore winds and messy, unsurfable conditions. You’re looking at a solid week of no-go.
The one that really stands out is Sunday morning, July 12th. Lambe Lambe is a point break that hardly ever breaks, and when it does, it’s always packed. The water is running way colder than normal at 61°, so layer up. With a 3ft ESE swell on a 13-second period and a light cross-offshore breeze from the NW, it’s going to be dead clean, glassy, and offering some beautiful lines. The combined energy is a solid 674 (moderate). This is the session.
Sunday afternoon holds with a 3ft ESE swell, clean offshore wind from the S at 12 mph, and energy around 447. Smaller, but still fun.
Monday the 13th brings a shift. The swell drops to an 8-second period, swinging around to the south, but it stays offshore all day. Morning sees 4ft with a 9 mph offshore, and afternoon pumps 5ft from the SSE at 12 mph. Energy is in the 330-365 range. Clean surf, but that short period means less punch.
Tuesday the 14th is interesting. The morning is a light 3ft ESE swell with clean cross-offshore wind, but the afternoon is the real deal: 5ft from the SE, 10-second period, and glassy conditions. Energy hits 573. That’s the biggest swell of the week, and it’ll be clean. Worth an afternoon paddle.
Then comes another dry spell. From Wednesday the 15th through to Wednesday the 22nd, it’s mostly onshore wind and poor conditions. There’s a tiny opening on Wednesday afternoon the 22nd with a cross-offshore breeze and clean 3ft waves from the ENE, but it’s short period and low energy at 240.
The next window opens Thursday the 23rd. The morning is offshore with strong 16 mph S winds and 3ft from the ENE, but it’s tiny. The afternoon improves: the swell swings to the S, period jumps to 11 seconds, and with a 12 mph offshore from the SSW, it’ll be clean. Energy is a modest 273, but that longer period should bring better shape.
Friday the 24th is your last decent call. The morning offers a clean 3ft from the S, 10-second period, with a gentle offshore breeze from the SSW and a combined energy of 410. Not big, but clean and surfable. The afternoon is tiny and ordinary.
The weekend of the 25th and 26th is mostly marginal, but Sunday the 26th cleans up with a solid offshore breeze from the S all day, offering 3ft from the SSE with a 10-second period and energy in the 280-360 range. It’s not a headline, but a clean end to the run.
The bottom line: Lambe Lambe is a rare break, and the absolute best on offer is Sunday morning, July 12th. That’s the one to chase.
Rusty.

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