Righto, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what Nungas has got cookin’ over the next couple of weeks.
Straight up, this is a run of solid, consistent SW groundswell for Nungas. We’re talking waves pretty much every day, so no real gaps to worry about. The real standout window kicks off on Wednesday July 8th and builds into a solid few days.
Wednesday afternoon July 8th is where it starts to get proper. We’ve got a clean 7 ft swell rolling in from the SW with a long 15-second period. That’s a heap of energy humming in there – combined energy is sitting at 1931 (strong). The wind is a light cross-off from the SSE, so the face will be groomed. This is solid, powerful groundswell, and with that size, it’s pushing into experienced territory at over 8 ft. This wave is going to have some punch, and the long period means it’ll wrap nicely around the reef and point. Keep an eye on the crowd factor though – Nungas can get some company.
Another absolute beauty to pencil in is the following Monday, July 20th, afternoon. We’ve got a similar setup: 7 ft of SSW swell, 15-second period, combined energy hitting 2056 (very strong). Winds are moderate cross-off from the SSE again, so still clean but a bit breezier. This is another one for experienced surfers only at that size with that energy. It’s a long way out, so the forecast could shift, but if it holds, it’s a cracker.
Don’t sleep on Friday July 17th afternoon either. 5 ft from the SW, 15-second period, a gentle cross-off breeze, and the energy sits at 1049 (moderate). It’s smaller, cleaner, and the report says “very good surf conditions.” This could be the pick for the intermediate crew.
The first week has water temps around average for the time of year, nothing weird to report there.
Overall, Nungas (reef and point) is the only game in town for this forecast, and it’s a good one. The swell direction (SW) is bang on for what this break likes. Mostly cross-off winds keep it clean, but with this much groundswell energy, expect long lulls between sets. It’ll be better for the point than a beach break.
Rusty out.

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.
