MULLAWAY OUTLOOK (Imperial)
Hey, Rusty here. Mullaway’s got a bit of a mixed bag coming up over the next couple weeks, but there’s definitely some quality windows if you pick your moments. This is a classic point break that handles a decent swell, and it’s no secret around here – crowds are often a factor, so get in early if you can.
The first few days of July are dominated by a strong pulse that’s pretty messy. Wednesday the 8th sees a big 11.5ft swell from the SSE with an 11-second period, but it’s cross-shore wind and the conditions are marginal – the energy is pumping at over 4300, but it’s not the kind of day you’d race down for. Thursday the 9th drops to 7.2ft, still with a bit of cross-off wind and clean faces in the morning, but again nothing special.
The real standout comes Friday morning, July 10th. The swell has eased to a clean 5.6ft from the SSE, the wind is a light cross-off from the SSW at 9 mph, and the wave quality is looking excellent. That combined energy sits around 614 – solid moderate power. If you can only surf one day in this run, make it Friday morning. It’s still got enough size to push through the point, and the offshore element will keep things smooth.
Saturday morning the 11th is also worthwhile – 3.9ft from the ESE, light cross-off breeze, clean, energy around 471. But the real hidden gem is Sunday morning the 12th: the wind swings offshore from the west at 9 mph, glassy, with a 3.3ft SSE swell at 10 seconds. That’s a perfect setup for a longer board session on the point – small but clean and fun, with moderate energy around 205.
After that, the surf drops off hard. Monday the 13th is tiny

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