The Lowdown

G’day, Rusty here, lookin’ at the surf for Lawrencetown Left Point. Gotta be straight with you, this 16-day window is a long wait for the good stuff. There’s a big gap of ordinary, blown-out conditions to sit through before we get any real reward.

The first week is a write-off, honestly. Wednesday the 15th kicks off with a messy 6 ft cross-shore wind swell from the SSW, combined energy sitting at a weak 297 – it’s just poor out there. That theme sticks around right through to the start of the following week. The winds are mostly cross or cross-onshore, and the swell is short-period, rarely cracking 8 seconds. We get a tiny moment of glass on Sunday the 19th afternoon, but with only 2 ft of swell, it’s flat and weak. The water temp is about average for the time of year, no big anomaly to talk about.

Then Monday the 20th morning offers a little tease. Glassy conditions and a 3 ft, 10-second groundswell from the S – combined energy hits 178 (moderate energy). It’s surfable, but very ordinary. Not worth rushing out for.

The real standout, the one you’ve been waiting for, is Wednesday the 22nd of July. This is the pick of the window. Early morning, we’ve got a clean 7 ft swell from the S, with a period of 10 seconds and a combined energy of 751 (strong wave energy). The wind is a light cross-offshore from the NNE, making for clean lines. This is a reef and point break, so that longer-period groundswell will wrap in nicely. It’s also an inconsistent spot, so when it comes good, it’s a special day. The swell is getting up there in size – over 5 ft – so it’s not a beginner’s day, but for intermediates and up, this is excellent. Crowds are possible here, so you might have some company.

We get another look on Monday the 28th morning with a 5 ft swell from the SSW, but the cross-shore wind makes it only marginal. Then, hang in there, because Thursday the 30th of July morning is another absolute cracker. Clean, 7 ft groundswell from the SSW, period of 9 seconds, and a combined energy of 1108 (very strong wave energy). The wind is a light cross-offshore from the NE, and the conditions are rated excellent for experienced surfers. At over 7 ft, this is expert territory. That’s the one to circle on the calendar, but it’s a long way out, so keep an eye on the forecasts.

So, to sum it up: the first week is a bust. The 22nd is the first proper standout, and the 30th is the big one for the crew who know what they’re doing. Don’t get your hopes up before that.

Rusty.
