The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's coming up for the next couple of weeks at Middleton Beach. It's a bit of a mixed bag, so pay attention if you're planning a session.

We've got a solid run of swell, but the wind is going to be the main character here. For the first few days, the waves are there, but the conditions are a struggle. The real standout, the one you want to circle on your calendar, is the morning of Wednesday the 29th of July. That's when things get magical.

The combined swell energy is moderate (1389) for the start of the week on Monday the 20th, with a 6ft SSW swell at 12 seconds. The wind is offshore from the WNW, so it'll be clean. It's a solid beginner-friendly wave, but nothing too wild. By Tuesday the 21st, the swell jumps to 7ft from the SW with a 14-second period, and the energy is building (2465). The cross-offshore wind keeps it rideable, but it's not the best.

Wednesday the 22nd gets a bit gnarly. The swell hits 12ft from the SSW with a very long 15-second period, and the energy is strong (5743). This is expert territory. The wind is cross-onshore, so it'll be choppy and messy. The same big swell hangs around Thursday the 23rd (8ft, 2831 energy), but still with cross-onshore winds, so it's not great.

Friday the 24th is a better bet. The swell drops to a clean 5ft from the SSW, and the wind goes cross-offshore from the NNW. The energy is moderate (930). That's a nice, fun-sized day.

Saturday the 25th is a write-off. The wind is howling and the waves are a mess. Then Sunday the 26th we get a massive 13ft to 15ft SSW swell with a very long 15-second period, and the energy is very strong (5831 to 8175). The wind is offshore, so it'll be clean, but for experts only. This is not a beginner's day, and the size makes it a serious paddle.

Monday the 27th and Tuesday the 28th are still on the big side (15ft and 7ft) with cross-offshore winds. The energy is strong (7859), but you're still looking at a solid session.

The Best Bet: Wednesday the 29th of July

Alright, here's the standout. The morning of Wednesday the 29th of July is the pick of the entire forecast. The wind is glassy, dead calm with 0 mph from the SSE. It's a beautiful, clean 6ft S swell at 13 seconds. The energy is moderate (2127). This is as good as it gets for Middleton Beach. The water temperature is about average for the time of year, but the conditions will be top shelf. The crowd factor is "sometimes", so you might have some company, but it'll be worth it.

After that, the swell drops off significantly. Thursday the 30th and Friday the 31st are small and choppy. The first week of August shows a return of some clean, cross-offshore wind, with a 6ft SW swell on Sunday the 2nd (1748 energy) and a 7ft S swell on Tuesday the 4th (1761 energy), both with nice offshore wind. Those are a couple of promising long-range options, but less certain.

So, in short: if you want the cleanest, best-shaped waves, be at Middleton Beach on the morning of the 29th of July. The rest of the period is either too big, too windy, or too small for a proper recommendation.

Rusty.

Information about the Middleton Beach Surf forecast

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

Middleton Beach is 8 km (5 miles) from Albany. If you plan a holiday in Far South of Western Australia, look for hotels and other accommodation in Albany. Albany has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
