The Lowdown

Alright, g’day, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s coming up for Nungas.

We’ve got a bit of a slow start, but don’t write it off just yet. The first real action that’s worth paddling out for kicks off on Monday afternoon, July 20. That morning is a bit of a tease with 5ft SW swell but the wind is cross-off from the SE, so it’s not ideal. The afternoon though, that’s where the week finds its first real highlight. We see a 7ft SW groundswell with a very long period of 17 seconds rolling in, and the energy is strong, hitting 2471. That’s a solid, powerful pulse. The wind stays cross-off, so the face will be fairly clean, but this is a reef and point break, so that long period will wrap in nicely. It’s a big swell for the beginners though, over 5ft, so it’s more for the experienced crew. Crowds are sometimes a factor here, so keep an eye out.

Tuesday July 21 is still surfable, but it’s a step down. The morning has 6ft SW swell at 15 seconds, but the wind picks up to 12 mph cross-off, and the energy drops to 1422. The afternoon is a bit smaller and weaker. By Wednesday and Thursday the swell drops below 5ft and the energy fades into the hundreds, so it’s pretty ordinary. We’ve got a run of marginal days from the 22nd through to the 26th, with the odd small window of “good surf conditions” on the 26th morning, but it’s only 3ft. Not much to get excited about.

The real standout, and the one you’ll want to circle on the calendar, is the period from Saturday August 1 through to Monday August 3. The Saturday morning (August 1) sees a 5ft SW swell building, but it’s the afternoon that’s the pick: 6ft SW, 16-second period, solid energy of 1962, and light cross-off winds. It’s excellent for experienced surfers. Sunday August 2 follows up with another 6ft SW swell in the morning, 15-second period, and 1900 energy, and the wind stays light cross-off. The afternoon is almost as good. This is the best run of the outlook. The water temp is about average for the time of year, nothing unusual there.

So, if you’re picking your moment, Monday July 20 afternoon is the early standout, and the weekend of August 1-2 is the real gem. The first week is a bit of a struggle, but the second week delivers. Stay patient.

Rusty.

Information about the Nungas Surf forecast

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