Mullaway Surf Forecast and Surf Report

G’day, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s coming down the line for Mullaway.

We’ve got a bit of a mixed bag over the next couple of weeks, but a couple of mornings are shaping up to be real beauties. The main energy is coming from the SSE, and the point here handles that direction well. Water temp is sitting at 68°F, which is about average for this time of year, so nothing wild there.

The standout for the whole period is Saturday morning, July 25. The swell is a solid 5ft, SSE, with a 14-second period – that’s a proper groundswell with plenty of push. The combined energy is ripping at 1106 (strong wave energy), and with a light cross-offshore breeze from the NW, those waves are going to be clean and lined up. This is advanced territory, so it’s not for the beginners, but for experienced surfers, it’s going to be excellent. Crowds are often here, so expect some company.

The next good moment is Sunday morning, July 26. The wind drops to glassy, calm, and the swell is a bit smaller at 4ft, SSE, but with a 12-second period, it’ll still have some shape. Energy is moderate at 344. It’s a nice, clean session for those who want a more relaxed paddle.

We then hit a bit of a flat patch. From Monday, July 27, through to Wednesday, July 30, the swell drops right off and the conditions are ordinary. There’s a few days of small, weak surf with poor winds, so it’s not worth the drive.

The swell picks up again on Thursday, July 30, with a 5ft SSE swell in the morning, but the wind is up to 12 mph from the SSW. It’s clean, but that moderate breeze will make it choppy. The energy is moderate at 254. It’s a marginal call.

Friday, July 31, is a write-off for surf – the wind is howling at 16 mph from the S, making it messy.

Then we get another promising run. Saturday, August 1, morning has a 4ft SSE swell, with a light cross-offshore breeze and clean conditions. Energy is moderate at 274. It’s not a standout, but it’s surfable.

The real second-wave highlight is looking like Saturday, August 8, morning. The wind goes glassy, and the swell is 5ft from the S, with a 7-second period. That’s short period, so it’s a bit jumbled, but with glassy conditions, it’ll offer some fun, steep walls. Energy is moderate at 387.

And then Sunday, August 9, morning is also worth a mention. The swell is 6ft from the SE, with a 9-second period, and a light cross-offshore breeze from the NNW. Energy is moderate at 658, and it’s looking very clean. This is a promising one, but it’s a way out, so keep an eye on it.

Overall, if you’re an advanced surfer, the 25th is your day. The 8th and 9th of August are looking good, too, but they’re still a couple of weeks away, so don’t lock it in just yet.

Rusty.
