The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s talk about what’s coming up for Lambe Lambe. This is a rare-breaks point, so when it does line up, you’ve gotta pay attention. The water is sitting at 64°F, which is a bit colder than normal for this time of year—about a degree off the usual.
There’s a gap of no real surf at the start. The first proper sniff of action kicks off on Thursday afternoon, July 23rd. We’ve got a 5ft S swell wrapping in with a moderate offshore breeze. Clean lines, but the period is short at 8 seconds, so it’ll be a bit lumpy in the face. The combined energy reads 278 (moderate), so there’s some push, but it’s not going to be a standout.
The best of the early window lands on Friday morning, July 24th. The swell pushes up to 5ft from the SSE, period lengthens to 9 seconds, and the wind is a light offshore from the south. The combined energy jumps to 442 (moderate to strong). This will be the cleanest, most powerful session of the first few days. Expect good, lined-up waves off the point, but keep in mind that Lambe Lambe is rarely breaking, so if it’s on, you go.
Crowds are always an issue here, so be prepared for company.
The rest of July and into early August turns small and messy. We drop to knee-to-waist high stuff with onshore or cross-shore winds. The combined energy sinks below 100 for a few days straight, meaning very weak wave energy. Not worth the paddle.
Things start to look more interesting again in early August. Wednesday morning, August 5th is the real standout for the whole outlook. The swell bumps up to 6ft from the ESE, period is 9 seconds, and the wind is dead calm—glassy conditions. The combined energy hits 466 (moderate to strong). That’s a solid, clean point break session. At 6ft, it’s still manageable for strong intermediates, but it’s pushing into the zone where beginners might find it a handful.
Then Thursday morning, August 6th is also worth a mention: 5ft from the ENE, glassy, and a combined energy of 468 (moderate to strong). Another clean window on offer.
After that, the wind turns onshore again and the quality drops, so those two August mornings are your best bets. The long-range calls look promising but less certain.
Signing off, 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.
