Alright, Rusty here. Let’s break down the next couple of weeks for Mother Ivey’s Spot M.
Honestly, mate, it’s a bit of a tough stretch to start. We’re looking at a long, flat spell with very little to get excited about for the first week and a half. The swell is tiny and the conditions are mostly messy. We’ve got a gap of about 10 days with no real surf on offer. From Monday the 6th of July right through to the morning of Friday the 10th, it’s just poor surf with weak, short-period swell and wonky winds. The water temp is about average for the time of year, nothing unusual there.
The first faint glimmer comes on Friday the 10th of July. The morning session shows a little 3-foot swell from the west, with a 9-second period. The combined energy is still weak (131), but the wind goes glassy with a slight air. That’s the cleanest we’ll see for a while, but the waves are still very ordinary. It’s a “surfable but ordinary” situation. After that, the wind swings onshore and ruins it.
The real standout, and the only one worth circling on the calendar, is the morning of Saturday the 18th of July. We get a jump in size to 5 feet from the west-northwest, but the period is a short 6 seconds, so it’ll be a bit lumpy. The wind is a fresh cross-onshore, so it’s not clean. However, the combined energy jumps to 190 (moderate), so there’s some push. The afternoon improves with a 6-foot swell and cross-off wind, making it cleaner, but the period is still short. It’s not perfect, but it’s the most size we’ve seen.
Then Sunday the 19th of July brings the biggest pulse – 7 feet from the northwest early, with moderate wave energy (515). That’s getting into expert-only territory, but the wind is a fresh cross-onshore, so it’ll be lumpy and challenging. The swell period is short (7 seconds), so it’s not a classic groundswell. This is more of a powerful, wind-affected wall for the brave.
Honestly, if you’re desperate for a paddle, Friday the 10th morning is the cleanest, tiniest option. For size, the 18th and 19th have the most grunt, but the wind is messy. This is a patch where the conditions look more interesting for a kite session than a surf session, especially on the 18th and 19th when the wind is up and the waves are lumpy. It’s a long wait for very little reward.
Stay patient, lads. Rusty.
