G’day, I’m Rusty. Let’s get stuck into what’s coming up across the next couple of weeks at Nungas.

We’ve got a solid run of south-west groundswell on the cards here. The first week is all about consistency and building energy, but the real standout window is the second week – from Monday 21 July onward, when the ocean really fires up. That’s the one to circle.

Wednesday 8 July kicks things off with clean, cross-off breezes out of the SE. Swell sits around 6 ft from the SW with a very long 15-second period – proper groundswell. Combined energy is strong at 1610 (moderate-to-strong). It’s a fairly consistent reef and point setup here, which handles these long-period swells well, though crowds can happen at times. Water temp is 82° F, about average for this time of year. The morning is a bit marginal tide-wise, but the afternoon improves – 7 ft SW with 1924 energy – excellent for experienced surfers.

Thursday 9 July holds similar size, 7 ft in the morning from the SSW, 15-second period, cross-off ESE breeze. Afternoon cleans up nicely with SE winds and 6 ft SW swell, still pumping 1758 energy. Very good for experienced crews.

Friday 10 July sees a slight dip to 5 ft in the morning with some rain showers, but the afternoon returns to 6 ft SW, 16-second period, 1765 energy – clean and lined up.

Saturday 11 July and Sunday 12 July offer consistent 5 ft to 3 ft SW groundswell, period dropping from 15 to 13 seconds. Energy drops from 1181 down to 477 by Sunday afternoon. Still clean, still rideable, but definitely easing.

Monday 13 July bottoms out – only 2 ft to 3 ft SW swell, though a very long 21-second period in the afternoon gives some weird energy (566). More of a rest day.

Tuesday 14 July ramps back up – 5 ft to 6 ft SSW, 18-19 second period, energy back up to 1877. Cross-off breezes, clean. Afternoon session is excellent.

Wednesday 15 July stays solid – 6 ft SSW morning, 16-second period, 1931 energy. Afternoon holds 6 ft with 1671. All good.

Thursday 16 July to Sunday 20 July sees a plateau: 4 ft to 5 ft SW groundswell, periods between 13-18 seconds. Energy ranges from 782 up to 1629. Mostly clean, mostly very good. Monday 20 July afternoon brings an 18-second period pulse with 1629 energy – excellent for experienced surfers.

Now here’s the standouts. Monday 21 July – the swell jumps. Morning sees 8 ft SW at 16 seconds, energy 2450. Afternoon hits 8 ft SW, 16 seconds, and a massive 2712 energy – that’s strong. Light SE breeze at 10 km/h, almost glassy offshore. This is only for experts given the size, but for anyone who knows what they’re doing at Nungas, this is the session. Tuesday 22 July is almost as good – 8 ft Wednesday morning and 7 ft afternoon, both with 15-second period and light offshore winds. Energy stays around 2363 to 1996. Unreal.

Even Thursday 23 July finishes off strong – 6 ft SSW with 14-second period, light winds, energy around 1438. Clean and excellent for experienced surfers.

Overall, the first week is steady and fun, the second week – especially 21-23 July – is the real gold. If you’re after the best, make a plan for that Monday to Wednesday period. Nungas is a reef-and-point, so those long-period groundswells will draw in nicely. Just be aware crowds can show when it’s this good.

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.
