Alright, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's shaping up for us.

Right now, it’s a bit of a slow start. The swell is showing up, but the wind is all wrong for Nanarup Beach – that cross-shore stuff is just making a mess of it, and the water’s a touch warmer than usual for this time of year at 65°.

We’ve got a small window coming up on the 13th of July, Monday morning. That’s the standout. The swell is pumping in at a solid 10ft from the SSW with a long 16-second period, and the combined energy is massive (5888). The wind swings light and cross-offshore, keeping things clean. This one is for experienced surfers only though – that size will be too much for the beginners.

After that, Tuesday the 14th is looking real nice too. Morning has clean 8ft SSW swell with a light offshore from the NNW, and by the afternoon it goes glassy with that 7ft SSW swell. The water’s still a touch warm. Just keep in mind, this spot can get a crowd sometimes.

We've got another promising day on the 20th of July, Monday. The swell drops a bit in size but stays solid at 10ft from the SSE, and we get a clean cross-offshore breeze in the morning. That's another one for the experienced crew.

The rest of the period is a mixed bag. We get some pulses of swell, but the wind is often messy or too strong, especially towards the end of July where we see some serious onshore wind. There are some clean days with smaller swell (around 3ft to 6ft) mid-week on the 15th, 16th, and 22nd, but nothing that's going to blow your mind. There's a long stretch from the 17th through the 25th where conditions are pretty ordinary – lots of poor to marginal surf with strong winds and lumpy seas.

So, to sum it up: your best bet is Monday the 13th for the big, clean groundswell. Tuesday the 14th is a close second for the glassy conditions. The rest is a waiting game.

Rusty.

Information about the Nanarup Beach Surf forecast

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