Alright, Rusty here, let's talk about what’s coming up for Middleton Beach. It’s a very sheltered, beginner-friendly spot, so we’re not expecting any huge peak performances, but the next couple of weeks have a solid run of swell with a few clean windows.

It kicks off on Tuesday the 7th of July with a serious pulse of energy. We’re looking at a 11.5ft SSW groundswell arriving with a very long 16-second period – that’s proper energy, measured at (6125). The water’s sitting at 64.8°, which is a touch warmer than usual for this time of year. Tuesday morning is the standout here: glassy conditions with that big, clean, long-period swell. This one is pushing over the 8.2ft mark, so it’s strictly for experienced surfers. The long period will make it wall up nicely though, and being a sheltered spot, it should handle the size well.

By Tuesday afternoon, the wind swings cross-on and things get a bit bumpy, so definitely aim for the morning.

Wednesday the 8th still has that pulse of groundswell, dropping a touch to 9.8ft from the SW with a 17-second period in the morning. The winds are clean and cross-off, making for a good session for those with some experience. The energy is still very high (4569).

Thursday the 9th and Friday the 10th see the swell dropping significantly, down to around 4.9ft and then 3.6ft. Winds stay clean but the energy drops way off into the 800s. It’s marginal at best.

A small kick comes through Saturday the 11th with 6.9ft SSW swell, but again, nothing to write home about. The real return of quality happens on Sunday the 12th. We get a 9.8ft SSW groundswell (14-second period) building into the afternoon with 8.2ft and a massive 6604 energy reading. Clean winds make this another excellent window for the more experienced crew.

Monday the 13th of July is our absolute standout of this entire outlook. The morning delivers 11.5ft SSW swell at 16 seconds with offshore NW winds at just 3 mph. Glassy, clean, powerful – that’s as good as it gets here. Energy is pumping at 5735. It’s a big day, so the beginners should sit this one out.

After that, the pattern gets a bit messy. Tuesday the 14th and Wednesday the 15th have size but cross-onshore and choppy winds spoil the shape.

The 16th of July (Thursday) offers another chance: 11.5ft SW swell with a 17-second period and moderate offshore NW winds (16 mph). Rock solid and clean, with energy at 6833. This one’s for experienced surfers too.

Friday the 17th keeps the size (13.1ft SW) but the wind gets strong – offshore at 22–25 mph. It’s clean but very demanding. Hard to paddle into, even for the pros.

The final standout pops up on Monday the 20th of July, when a fresh 9.8ft SSW groundswell combines with offshore winds again. Clean and punchy, with energy over 5000.

After that, the swell hangs around but the wind gets ugly, with near gale-force conditions on the 19th and strong breezes through the 21st and 22nd. The very last session on Wednesday the 22nd of July looks promising for a more mellow session: 7.2ft SSW swell, light offshore wind, and clean conditions.

So, bottom line: the absolute best is Monday morning the 13th of July – glassy, big, and clean. The second-best shout is Sunday morning the 12th. After that, it’s a waiting game with isolated clean windows for the brave.

Stay safe out there.

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.
