The Lowdown
Alright, let’s switch to feet and miles. Ngor Lefts is a reef break that needs a proper NW swell, and for the next two weeks we’re mostly staring at a whole lot of nothing. Water temp is right around average for this time of year – nothing weird going on.
From Tuesday July 14th all the way through to the afternoon of Monday July 27th, it’s a long, grim stretch of poor conditions. Waves are tiny, jumbled, and wind is either cross or onshore most of the time. There’s a day or two where it’s “surfable,” like the 21st, but it’s nothing to get excited about. Honestly, leave the board in the car.
Then – and this is your only real window – Monday the 27th afternoon shows some life. Swell hits 5 ft from the NNW, period around 8 seconds, with combined energy at 266 – the strongest we see all window. Wind is SW at 9 mph, clean and cross-off. That’ll make Ngor Lefts actually peel. It’s an advanced reef, so don’t bring the beginners, and crowds do show up sometimes, but a Monday arvo might keep it quiet. The direction is a bit north of the ideal NW, but close enough to work.
Tuesday the 28th still has rideable waves, but the wind gets stronger offshore – cleaner but smaller, energy fading. By Wednesday the 29th we’re back to poor. So if you’re gonna paddle out, make it the 27th afternoon. That’s your one shot. The rest is a blank run.

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