Table - best surf conditions forecast for Milook over the next 16 days.
G’day, it’s Rusty. Let’s break down Milook. Honestly, this is a tough one—two weeks of mostly nothing, and that’s a real letdown for a reef break. Water temp is 64°F, and it’s about 4°F warmer than normal for this time of year, so it’s nice for swimming. But surfing? Not so much.
First chance to paddle out comes on Friday, July 10, but it’s a waste. You’ve got a 3ft wave from the west, period of 9 seconds—short and weak. Wind is a light cross-onshore at 6 mph, and energy is only 106. Poor conditions all around.
Saturday, July 11, is clean with a cross-off breeze from the ENE at 12 mph, but the swell drops to 2ft in the morning and 2ft in the afternoon. Periods are even shorter. It’s clean but basically flat. Energy is 51 and 55.
Sunday, July 12, keeps clean but the swell is tiny—1ft in the morning, dropping to 0.3ft by afternoon. Wind ramps up to 19 mph offshore, but there’s nothing to ride. Energy at 23 and 19.
From Monday, July 13, through to Thursday, July 25, it’s a flat spell. Swell heights mostly sit between 0.3ft and 1ft, periods are short, and energy stays low. A few days, like Tuesday, July 22, show a 6ft swell with 7-second period and energy at 315—but the short period and cross-chop make it a mess. Not worth it.
The one standout comes way later. On Friday, July 24, morning brings an 12ft swell from the west with a 10-second period. That’s a groundswell, and energy is massive at 2652 (strong). Wind is offshore from the southeast at 16 mph—clean faces. Over 8ft, so it’s for experts only, especially at a reef. Afternoon pumps to 13ft with 11-second period and energy at 4046 (very strong), but wind goes cross-off and tide looks tricky. The morning window is your best shot—the only real standout in the whole 16 days.
Saturday, July 25, still has 8ft swell from the west with 11-second period and energy at 1555, but wind turns cross and then cross-on, making it less clean. Only for strong surfers.
So, if you’re waiting for the good stuff, circle Friday, July 24. Everything before that is flat or weak. Not a great run, but that one morning could be a beauty.

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.
