The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at the surf outlook for the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, I’ve got to be straight with you – this is a tough one. We’re looking at a real flat spell for the entire 16-day window. The first actual surf I can even talk about doesn’t show up until way down the line. For the first two weeks, from Thursday 30th July right through to Thursday 14th August, Milook is just not doing anything. The combined wave energy is stuck in the double digits (42) and barely even reaches 61 on the 14th. It’s a prolonged stretch of mostly poor surf with onshore winds and chop. There’s one brief moment on Sunday the 2nd of August morning where it goes glassy, but the swell is a pathetic 1ft. It’s not worth paddling out for.
The only faint glimmer of hope comes right at the very end of the forecast on Friday the 14th of August. The morning at Milook will see a tiny 2ft swell from the W with a period of 9 seconds, and the wind will be a clean cross-offshore. The combined energy is still weak at 61, and the report says the conditions are very ordinary. It’s surfable, but only just. For a first recommendation, that’s what we’ve got. The water temperature isn’t mentioned in the data, so I can’t speak to that.
Bottom line: it’s a long, dry run. Kite surfers might find some action in the stronger winds, but for a paddle surfer, this is a blank stretch. Keep your eyes on the charts, things can change. Until then, I’m 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.
