Updates in hr min s Forecast update imminent
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s break this down.
Right now, it’s pretty flat and forgettable. The first few days are showing small, clean waves but nothing that’ll get you excited – the reports are calling it marginal. You’re not missing much.
Things start to turn Thursday the 10th of July. We get a bit more size, with swell around 3ft from the SSW through Friday, and that cross-off wind keeps the surface glassy. The energy is picking up – Thursday morning hits a combined swell energy of 701 (moderate), and Friday morning is still solid at 487. It’s surfable, but still just average. Winds are light to gentle, so it’ll look nice even if the waves aren’t pumping.
Saturday the 11th of July drops back to 2ft from the south, and by Sunday the period is dropping too – down to 11 to 12 seconds. It’s okay, but nothing special.
The standout window is Tuesday the 14th of July and Wednesday the 15th of July. Tuesday morning we’ve got clean 5ft SSE swell with a 11-second period, cross-off wind from the west at just 9 mph, and the combined energy is sitting at 760 – solid moderate energy. Water temp is 84°F, which is about normal for this time of year. Wednesday morning holds similar quality with 4ft from the SSE and a light breeze from the west at 6 mph. Both days look clean and the swell direction is right on the money for this break.
I’d be pointing you straight at that Tuesday the 14th and Wednesday the 15th as the best of the bunch.
After that, the second week gets a bit rough. Winds swing around to the SW and cross-on by Friday the 17th of July, and it’s showing poor and choppy with waves only about 3ft. That rough patch sticks around through the weekend with just small, weak pulses. There’s a little flicker on Monday the 20th of July afternoon with 3ft from the south and clean conditions, and another modest bump Tuesday the 21st of July afternoon with 4ft from the SSE – but nothing that matches that mid-week window.
So it’s a slow start, a solid mid-month peak, then it fades again. Keep the log around and wait for that Tuesday to Wednesday window to fire.
Rusty.

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