Alright, let’s size this up. This is a tough stretch for Lillatro. The first real chance isn’t until the morning of Monday, July 27th, and even then, it’s nothing to write home about.
The first bit of action comes Monday morning, the 27th of July, at Lillatro. It’s a reef break, and it breaks fairly consistently. We’re looking at a 4ft swell from the west, with a short period around 8 seconds. The wind is a light offshore from the NE at 6 mph, which is a major positive – it’ll keep the surface smooth. The combined swell energy is moderate at 192. The water is sitting at 82°, which is more than 5° warmer than usual for this time of year – that’s very unusual, so you can leave the wetsuit at home.
After that Monday morning window, the forecast turns real flat and sloppy. From Monday afternoon right through to the morning of Sunday, August 9th, it’s a write-off. We’re talking days of tiny, weak, and choppy surf. You’ll be staring at a lake for a while.
The next chance that’s even worth mentioning is the morning of Sunday, August 9th. Lillatro sees a 4ft, 7-second swell from the west again, with a clean cross-offshore breeze from the east at 6 mph. The energy is moderate at 160. It’s not a classic, but it’s the best we’ve seen in a long stretch.
Then, the morning of Tuesday, August 11th, offers a similar story: a 4ft west swell, clean offshore wind from the ENE at 6 mph, and moderate energy at 128. There’s even a risk of a thunderstorm according to the forecast, which could add some spice. This is the other standout on the horizon.
The real standout here, if you can call it that, is the Monday morning, July 27th. It’s the first chance to get wet, and the glassy offshore wind makes it the cleanest it’s going to be for a while. The 4ft swell is manageable for most, and the reef setup might give you a better-shaped wave than the short period suggests. Keep in mind the second standout, the morning of Tuesday, August 11th, is a week and a half away, so while it looks promising, it’s a long-range call and less certain.

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