Updates in hr min s Forecast update imminent
G’day, Rusty here. Look, I’ve gotta be straight with you – this Narrabeen-North (beach/sandbar) outlook is a tough one. We’re looking at a 16-day window, but the first few days are a write-off. There’s a big gap of nothing but dud conditions from now until Monday morning, the 7th of July. The good news is that the forecast gets better as we go, but you’ll need to be patient.
The first session worth paddling out for is on Tuesday morning, the 7th of July. It’s not a classic, but it’s the first hint of life. Swell is a chunky 8ft from the SSE (combined energy of 1099), with a period of 10 seconds. That’s a solid, powerful swell, but the wind is a cross-shore from the SW at 12 mph, creating a bit of a cross-chop. It’s marginal, but for the advanced crew, there’s some grunt to play with.
The real standout, the best on offer by a long shot, is the morning of Wednesday the 8th of July. The wind swings to a cross-offshore from the SW at just 9 mph, and the swell is still a solid 8ft from the SSE. The period is 10 seconds, and the combined energy is a strong 2646. The forecast says "clean," and for a beach break like this, clean surf with that much energy is a rare treat. The 8ft will be pushing it for beginners, but for the advanced surfer, it’s going to be a session to remember. Just be aware that the afternoon turns back to a cross-onshore, so you’ll want to be on it early.
The rest of the weeks are a bit of a mixed bag. Thursday and Friday (9th and 10th of July) are still sizeable (8ft to 10ft) but the wind is messy, either cross or cross-onshore, making it choppy. Then things start to drop. The Saturday morning of the 11th of July looks clean with a 5ft SSE swell and a light cross-offshore wind, but it’s a lot weaker than the Wednesday. Sunday the 12th of July has a nice offshore wind from the NW at 12 mph, but the swell drops to 3ft from the ESE, with a long 12-second period. That’s a clean, small day for logs.
After that, we hit a flat spell. From Monday the 13th of July, it’s all tiny, poor conditions or no swell at all. A few pulses of short-period, weak energy (around 3ft) show up on the 17th and 18th of July, but the wind is always onshore or cross. The final morning on the 19th of July has a clean 4ft from the E, but it’s a weak, short-period swell (103 combined energy). It’s surfable, but nothing to get excited about.
So, the call is simple: if you’re an advanced surfer, the Wednesday morning of the 8th of July is your only real standout. Otherwise, it’s a waiting game. Stay salty.

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