Table - best surf conditions forecast for Narrabeen-South over the next 16 days.
Alright, let’s talk surf for Narrabeen-South in feet and degrees. This forecast starts with a bit of a wait. Your first chance is Friday July 10th, but then from Saturday the 11th through Tuesday the 14th, it’s mostly flat and weak. Hang tight.
The real standout is Wednesday July 15th. We’re looking at a solid 7ft swell out of the S, with a period around 9 to 10 seconds. That’s a proper groundswell, carrying strong energy (1297 to 1614). This is big surf—over 5ft—so it’s for experienced surfers only. Winds are light and clean, with a gentle offshore from the SSW in the morning and a cross-off from the SSE in the arvo. The water temp is 65°, dead average for the season.
Thursday the 16th still has some dropping swell at 4ft from the S with moderate energy (325), and light cross-off winds in the morning. It’s a good backup, but not the highlight.
After that, the second week gets quiet. There’s a small window on Monday July 20th in the afternoon with glassy conditions and 3ft swell from the ENE (energy 258), but it’s nothing special. The rest of the period has tiny surf and poor wind. Keep your expectations low but check the forecasts.
This spot (Narrabeen, Australia) is very consistent and exposed to SE swell. Crowds are often here, so on that Wednesday be ready to share the peak—it’ll be worth it.

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

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-South 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.
