Alright gang, Rusty here. Let’s break down the 16-day outlook for Milook.
I’m not going to sugarcoat it: the first week and a half is a total bummer. From Friday the 10th right through to Tuesday the 21st of July, the swell is tiny and the wind is all over the place. It’s a long stretch of barely any surf.
The only real flicker of hope in the early part is Friday morning the 10th of July. We’ve got a 3ft swell from the west with a 9-second period, delivering weak wave energy (103). The wind is a light offshore from the ESE, so it’s clean. The water is a warm 64°, which is over 4 degrees warmer than usual for July. Pretty unusual. But honestly, it’s just not enough to get excited about. After that, the wind goes onshore and the swell dies.
From Saturday the 11th through to the 21st, it’s flat or tiny. Heights are mostly under 1ft, and the wind is either cross-offshore or onshore, creating choppy mess. Don’t bother.
Now, here’s the one day you need to circle. Wednesday the 22nd of July. A proper swell finally shows up. We’re talking a 5ft west swell in the morning, easing to 5ft in the afternoon. The period is 7 seconds, so it’s a bit short, but the combined energy is moderate (255 in the morning, 280 in the afternoon). The wind is a light offshore from the ESE, meaning it’s going to be glassy clean all day. This is the standout. The west swell is right on the money for the exposed reef. Crowds are often around here, so you won’t be alone.
The good window is short-lived. Thursday the 23rd of July morning has a fresh 30 km/h offshore wind, but the swell is already down to 4ft, and the conditions are marginal. After that, it’s back to onshore winds and lumpy, choppy surf for the rest of the run. The weekend of the 25th of July has a 5ft swell, but it’s blown out by a strong 30 km/h cross-onshore wind, making it more of a kite-surfing day than a paddle session.
So, there you have it. Suffer through the flat spell, then hit Wednesday the 22nd of July. That’s your one clean, fun day. The rest is a wash.
Rusty.

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