The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here again, looking at Mullaway. This is a long-range outlook, and we’ve got a bit of a slow start, but a couple of sessions that will get the blood pumping for the experienced crew.
The absolute standout is the morning of Saturday, July 25th. The point is going to be showing off with a solid 5ft swell from the SSE. The energy is pumping, with a reading of 1106, and the period is a solid 14 seconds, so that’s proper groundswell with some real punch. The wind is a light northwesterly, making it a clean cross-off. That’s your best bet of the whole window. The water temp is about usual for the season. Just remember, this is an advanced spot, so that 5ft on a point is not for the beginners.
After that, the surf drops off in a hurry. Saturday afternoon the wind goes onshore, and the swell gets smaller and sloppy. From the 26th of July through to the 8th of August, it’s mostly small, weak, and choppy. There are a couple of glassy mornings, like the 26th with 3ft and the 1st of August with 3ft, but the energy is low (267 and 161), so you’re looking at limp, weak waves. The wind is mostly onshore or cross-shore, and the periods drop, leaving the waves with no push.
Looking way ahead, there’s a glimmer on the 9th of August. The Sunday morning is showing a massive 12ft SSE swell with a huge energy reading of 4421 and a 13-second period. That’s a lot of water. The wind is a clean cross-off from the SSW, so it’ll be clean. But that’s a monster. 12ft is expert-only territory, and it could be a real handful. It’s also a long way off, so don’t get your hopes up too much, but it’s the only other proper day to have on your radar.
Rusty.

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.
