The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Gotta be honest with you, looking at the charts for the next couple of weeks, it's a bit of a slow grind. We've got a solid window of tiny, weak swell and onshore winds that's gonna make you want to leave the board in the car.
The first real chance of anything resembling a surf comes on Monday the 27th of July. The swell is small, only 3ft from the West, but look at that morning: glassy conditions. The wind is dead calm. The water is a touch warmer than normal at 67°, which is a nice bonus. The combined energy is moderate (132), so it's not a complete washout. You'll get some crumbly, clean lines, but it's going to be a mellow session for the longboard or the foamie. Definitely not a standout, just a welcome break from the chop.
The pattern of small, poor-quality surf drags on through the end of July and into the first week of August. There are a few mornings with clean conditions, like the 4th of August with a light offshore breeze from the NE, but the swell is tiny (1ft) and the energy is weak (23). It's just not worth paddling out for.
Now, hold on to your hats. The one true standout on the entire chart is Saturday the 8th of August. The morning session is the pick of the whole forecast. We get a solid jump in swell to 5ft from the West-South-West, with a moderate combined energy of 373. The wind is a light offshore from the North-North-East, which will groom the waves beautifully. It's going to be clean and have some punch. However, at 5ft, it's getting a bit sizeable for the absolute beginners, so be aware. The afternoon looks like it will get chopped up by a cross-onshore wind, so get your session in first thing. This is the one to circle on the calendar, but it's over a week away, so keep your fingers crossed the forecast holds.
Rusty.
