The Lowdown
Alright, this is Rusty. Let’s get stuck into what’s on the cards for the next couple of weeks.
We’re looking at a solid run of surf coming up, but the next few days are a bit of a mixed bag. The water’s sitting at 79°, which is pretty much normal for this time of year, so nothing to worry about there.
The first real surf we’ll see is kicking off on Monday, July 27th. It’s a bit of a frustrating start, to be honest. We’ve got a 7ft swell from the SE with a short 8-second period, so it’s going to be all over the place. The wind is offshore from the ESE at 22 mph, which is clean, but the wave energy is only moderate (757). It’s going to be a bit of a wrestle for a couple of days.
Tuesday and Wednesday look a bit weedy. The swell drops right off to around 3ft to 4ft, but here’s the kicker: that period jumps to 14 to 16 seconds. That’s proper groundswell, but it’s coming from the SSW, which isn't the optimum direction for Outside Corner. It’s clean with that offshore breeze, but the energy is still pretty moderate. It’s a bit of a teaser, not quite firing.
Thursday, July 30th is where things start to get interesting. The swell picks up to 5ft from the SSW, still with a solid 15-second period, and the energy is getting stronger (1257 in the morning, 1553 in the afternoon). It’s clean with moderate offshore wind. This is a decent day, but the real goodness is on the horizon.
Now, for the standout. Saturday, August 1st is the day to circle. The morning sees 5ft, 16-second SSW groundswell, but the afternoon is where it’s at. That swell jumps to 6ft with a very long 18-second period and the energy is strong (2311). The wind is offshore from the SE at 12 mph. This is a true gem of a day. The crowd factor is "sometimes", so you might have a few others out there, but with that quality, it’s worth it.
Sunday, August 2nd is another absolute cracker. We’re looking at 8ft from the SSW with a 17-second period. The energy is very strong (3059). The wind is offshore and clean. This is expert territory at that size, but the waves will be properly lined up. It’s a serious contender for the best of the run.
The following week keeps the momentum. There’s a solid run of 6ft to 8ft SSW swell, all with those long periods, hanging around until the 5th. The energy stays strong, and the wind is consistently offshore. It’s a sustained period of quality.
Then, mark your calendars for Saturday, August 8th. The morning is a beast. We’re looking at 8ft SSW swell with a 20-second period and the energy is massive (6286). That's exceptional. The wind is offshore. This is for experts only, but it’s the kind of session you tell stories about. The afternoon bumps up to 10ft, but the wind goes cross-off, so it’s a bit less perfect.
Sunday, August 9th is another huge day. Another 10ft of SSW swell, 18-second period, and massive energy (6298). Again, offshore in the morning, it’s a premium day for the experts. The run continues into Monday the 10th with 8ft swell, but the period drops slightly, though the energy is still strong.
For the last few days, from the 11th, the swell starts to ease back down to 7ft and then 6ft, but it’s still clean and fun. The periods are still good, dropping to 14 seconds, so it’s not a total flat spell.
The best of the lot? You’ve got to lock in Saturday, August 1st for the afternoon session, and Sunday, August 2nd is a close second. If you're looking for the biggest, most powerful stuff, the 8th and 9th of August are for the brave.
Rusty.

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