Alright, Rusty here. Let’s break down what’s coming for Narrabeen-Alley Rights.
Right off the bat, the first few days are a total bust. Saturday and Sunday have next to no swell and the wind is all wrong. Monday the 6th and Tuesday the 7th bring a solid pulse of southern swell with plenty of energy (1199), but the onshore winds are just going to shred it. Tuesday morning offers a 2.3m SSE swell with a cross-shore breeze, but it’s bumpy. Wednesday the 8th morning is where it gets interesting – a 2.5m SSE swell (2646 energy) with a light cross-offshore wind from the SW. It’s not perfect, but it’s the cleanest big wave window in the first week. After that, Thursday and Friday stay lumpy and onshore. So yeah, nine days of mostly poor to marginal conditions.
The best session of the whole forecast is Saturday the 11th of July. The swell drops to a manageable 5ft from the SSE in the morning, with a gentle 10 mph cross-offshore breeze. The energy is moderate (392) and the conditions are clean. The afternoon is even lighter with a 6 mph breeze and a 4ft swell (277 energy). That’s your window.
Sunday the 12th stays clean with offshore winds, but the swell drops to 2-3ft from the ESE (291 energy). It’s surfable but fading fast. From Monday the 13th onward, it goes flat – knee-high dribble with almost no energy through Wednesday the 15th. Thursday the 16th is a total flat day with rain.
We get a tiny pulse on Friday the 17th of July with 3ft from the ESE, but the period is short and it’s onshore – not worth it. Saturday the 18th bumps to 5ft but it’s still short-period and choppy. Finally, on Sunday the 19th, a cross-offshore breeze cleans up a 3-4ft east swell, but it’s weak (103 energy) and just ordinary.
Bottom line: your best shot is Saturday the 11th of July for clean, mid-range southern groundswell. Wednesday the 8th morning is the other option for a bigger wave if you can handle a little lump. The rest is either blown out or flat, which is just the winter norm for an exposed sandbar like this.
Rusty.
