Alright, Rusty here. Let's take a look at what’s coming down the pipe.
Right now, things are pretty grim to start. We’ve got a massive pulse of south-west swell hitting us Friday the 3rd and Saturday the 4th, but the wind is howling onshore with it. That 20ft to 16ft swell is just too big, and the wind is ruining any chance of a clean wave. Until we get a break in the weather, you’re better off staying on the beach.
The first real chance for a paddle comes on Sunday the 5th of July. It’s an absolute standout day for experienced surfers only. That swell has dropped to 16ft from the WSW, but here’s the kicker – the wind goes light offshore and cross-offshore out of the ENE, with clear skies. The wave energy is still massive, and with a long 17 second period, this is a true groundswell. This is a point-break day; that long period will make the waves steep and fast, best handled by a crew who know what they’re doing. There’s gonna be a crew out there for sure, but the quality is on offer for the brave.
Moving into Monday the 6th and Tuesday the 7th, it settles down but stays good. Monday morning has a clean 8ft swell from the SW with a light offshore ENE wind, still powerful with a 14 second period. It’s in that sweet spot for experienced surfers. The wave energy drops to a more manageable level, but the lines will be clean. This is a solid option for a few days of riding.
Later in the week, things get a bit more mixed. Wednesday the 8th has an 12ft WSW swell with a very long 18 second period, but the wind goes cross-off and the tide conditions feel a little awkward. Still a good option for the confident surfer, but not as clean as the weekend. By the time we get into the second week, especially around the 10th and 11th, the wind picks up again onshore and the quality drops out, with plenty of poor surf conditions and chop.
The water temp is about average for this time of year, nothing weird going on there. It’s just about picking the windows.
So, my pick of the period is Sunday the 5th of July. That is the cleanest, biggest, and most powerful day of the whole forecast. If you’re good enough, you’ll be smiling.
Rusty.

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