G’day, Rusty here. We’ve got a solid run of surf coming up at Nungas that starts this Friday, 3 July, and keeps us busy pretty much non-stop for a couple of weeks. The overall pattern is a long, drawn-out pulse of SSW to SW swell, hanging around the 4 to 7 ft mark, with mostly clean conditions and light to moderate breezes. The water’s sitting at 82° – nothing unusual for the time of year, just a normal day in the tropics. The combined swell energy is strong to very strong throughout, often hitting between 1000 and 2133 (moderate to very strong wave energy), so there’s plenty of push.

The standout windows are clear. Wednesday, 8 July, is the pick of the first week: morning swell 6 ft from the SW with a 15-second period and a gentle cross-offshore breeze, and the afternoon bumps up to 7 ft with the same clean wind. The energy readings are high (2086 and 2133), and it’s flagged as excellent for experienced surfers – that’s the day for anyone comfortable in bigger, powerful waves. Tuesday, 14 July, also looks like a cracker: 5 ft SSW swell, 16-second period, light cross-off offshore winds, and combined energy of 1465 – again, excellent conditions for experienced surfers to really enjoy.

The first week is steady. Friday 3 July kicks off with 6 ft SSW swell and clean cross-off breezes, energy at 1222 – a very good start. Saturday 4 July sees a slight drop to 5 ft and 5 ft, still clean, but the comments flag marginal tide issues. Sunday 5 July is back to very good in the morning with 5 ft and energy at 1310. Monday 6 July and Tuesday 7 July hold at 4–5 ft, still clean, with energy staying solid. The whole week is consistent, and the period ranges from 14 to 17 seconds, giving long, lined-up swells – but at a beach break like Nungas, those long-period SW groundswells can sometimes wrap a bit too straight, so the point and reef sections will be your best bet.

Into the second week, the surf stays consistent but the standout day remains Tuesday 14 July. The rest of the week sees swell between 2 ft and 6 ft, mostly clean, but energy drops a little towards the weekend. The morning of Friday 17 July is a write-off: 4 ft but with a fresh 19 mph ESE breeze – poor conditions and only a 0 rating. Saturday 18 July brings a bigger push back to 5 ft and 6 ft with a long 18-second period, but the winds pick up to moderate breezes and the conditions are marginal.

Crowds are something to keep in mind at Nungas – it’s a spot that sees people sometimes, so don’t expect to have it to yourself on the best days, especially the Wednesday and the Tuesday. The break is fairly consistent overall, so there’s almost always something to ride. Just be aware that when the swell pushes over 7 ft, it’s strictly for the experienced crew – too much for beginners.

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.
