The Lowdown
Right then, let's have a look at what's on the table for Main Street Pier over the next couple of weeks.
To be straight with you, it's a pretty grim run for the first ten days. We're looking at tiny, weak swell with poor surf conditions from Thursday the 30th of July right through to Saturday the 8th of August. The combined energy of all swells is mostly in the low teens to around 30, which is feeble. The swell is a dribbly 0.7ft to 3ft from the ESE or E, and the period is short, often under 8 seconds. The wind is mostly cross or cross-off, and while a few windows are clean, the waves just aren't there. Honestly, it's more of a paddleboard or swim situation than a surf.
Then, we get a flicker of life. On Sunday the 9th of August, the morning turns glassy with a light offshore, and the swell bumps up a touch. The combined energy finally creeps into three digits, with a 2ft wave from the ENE at a longer 10 seconds. It's still small, but it's a clean, surfable wave. The water temperature is about average for this time of year, so nothing to worry about there.
The standout, and the only real window I'd get excited about, is on Tuesday the 11th of August. The morning is glassy again, with a 3ft ENE swell and a period of 11 seconds, giving it a bit more grunt. The combined energy is moderate. For a beach/pier setup, that longer period can mean the waves have a bit more shape and push, but it might also make them a little walled in places. Still, with glassy conditions, it will be the best on offer. The swell is small, so it's fine for all levels. Crowds are possible at Main Street Pier, so be prepared to share.
The following week holds a few more mornings with similar small, clean conditions. The 12th and 13th of August have light offshore winds and 2ft to 3ft waves from the ENE with a decent period, but the energy has dropped back. It's surfable, but nothing to write home about.
So, the call is simple: the first ten days are a write-off. The best surf is on the morning of Tuesday the 11th of August, with a close second being the morning of Sunday the 9th. After that, it's a long wait for anything half decent.
