G’day, Rusty here. Let’s look at what’s coming down the line for Narrabeen‑Alley Rights over the next couple of weeks. It’s a bit of a stop‑start story, with a small but workable window early on, then a long flat spell before a little pulse returns right at the end.

We’ve got a solid run of surf starting right now, Wednesday the 8th of July. The morning sees an 8‑foot swell out of the southeast pumping in at 11 seconds – that’s a decent groundswell with good energy (combined energy of 1770). The water’s sitting at 65°, which is bang on average for this time of year, so no surprises there. The catch? The wind is a cross‑onshore southerly at 9 mph, so it’s going to be a bit lumpy and choppy on the face. This is a beach/sandbar setup, and for advanced surfers it’s still rideable, but it’s not pretty. The afternoon stiffens up with the same cross‑onshore wind at 12 mph, and the swell drops a touch to 8 feet – conditions get worse, really not worth it.

Thursday the 9th and Friday the 10th see the swell easing gradually, from 6 feet down to 5 feet, periods around 9–10 seconds, and winds staying light and cross‑shore. It’s marginal – you might get a few if you’re desperate, but the energy is dropping (combined energy falls from 881 to 571), and the quality isn’t there.

Now, here’s the standout – Saturday the 11th of July. Morning brings a clean 4‑foot southeast swell at 9 seconds with a light offshore north‑westerly at 6 mph. That’s glassy, clean, and the wind is off the land. For a beach break, this is about as good as it gets in this run. The afternoon stays clean with a moderate offshore west‑north‑westerly at 12 mph, pushing the swell to 3 feet but with a longer 11‑second period sneaking in from the east‑southeast. Combined energy is low at 282, but the quality of the waves will be there for the advanced crew. This is the best on offer – small but clean, and you’ll have the place to yourself most likely, though crowds are often around here, so expect a few heads.

After Saturday, it falls away fast. Sunday the 12th drops to 2 feet and smaller, with strong winds up to 19 mph – clean but tiny. From Monday the 13th right through to Saturday the 18th of July, it’s basically flat. There’s a gap of six days where the combined energy sits at zero or barely a flicker. Nothing to ride.

Then on Sunday the 19th of July, a small pulse arrives – 1 feet from the southeast with a very long period of 12 seconds, combined energy at 57. The morning has a light offshore north‑westerly at 6 mph, so it’s clean, but it’s tiny. Good for a longboard or a foil, but for a beach break a long‑period swell can break straight and be tricky. Not a standout by any stretch.

Through Monday the 20th and Tuesday the 21st, there’s a tiny bump of 3 feet from the south‑southeast at a short 7 seconds on the Tuesday morning, with clean offshore winds, but combined energy is only 108 – weak. After that, it’s back to poor conditions through to the end of the forecast on Thursday the 23rd.

So, bottom line: the only real session to pencil in is Saturday morning the 11th – small but clean and offshore. The rest is a long flat patch with a dribble of no‑go at the end. That’s how it goes sometimes – it’ll turn around.

Rusty.
