The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s cooking for the next couple of weeks.
To be honest, it’s a pretty quiet start. We’re looking at a long stretch of nothing much happening. From Tuesday the 21st right through to the end of July, it’s largely a flat spell with poor surf conditions and cross-offshore winds. There’s a tiny pulse on Thursday the 23rd with a 0.7ft to 1ft NNW swell, but it’s weak and rubbish. That’s a solid week of no real surf to speak of. The only real chance of a wave comes right at the end of the month.
The highlight of the whole 16-day window is definitely going to be Thursday the 30th of July. Leftovers/Rightovers, a reef break, finally gets a bit of life. We’re looking at a 5ft NE swell pushing in from the northwest, which is right on the money for this spot. The swell period is 10 seconds, so it’s got some decent shape and energy. The combined energy hits 490 – that’s moderate wave energy, and it feels like some proper grunt will be in the water. Winds are light and cross-shore, which will keep the surface tidy. This is the standout morning. The afternoon on the 30th holds similar energy at 5ft with 473 points of energy, still very surfable. For a spot that’s fairly consistent, this is a bit of a rare treat. Keep in mind, it’s a reef, so it’s an advanced wave, and crowds are possible here.
The next day, Friday the 31st of July, is worth a mention too. The morning is clean with a 3ft NNE swell and 161 energy – it’s ordinary but surfable. The afternoon gets better though, with a 4ft NNE swell, 203 energy, and clean conditions. That’s a solid little session.
The forecast confidence is good for the 30th and 31st since it’s within the first week. After that, it drops off again. The 1st of August through to the 5th of August looks like a return to small, weak, and poor conditions. There’s a little 1ft SW swell with a very long 16-second period on the 5th of August, but it’s a long way out and the energy is tiny. Don’t get your hopes up for that one.
So, take the long quiet stretch on the chin. The best of it is a couple of days at the end of July. Get in the water on Thursday the 30th.
Rusty.
