Updates in hr min s Forecast update imminent
G'day, I'm Rusty. Fair dinkum, the outlook over the next couple of weeks for Pic Kipu is a real tough one to write. We're looking at a long, drawn-out stretch of flat to tiny dribble with hardly a window of anything to get excited about. The water's sitting at about 67°, which is much warmer than average for this time of year, so that's a bit of a novelty if you just want a float, but for surfing, it's pretty ordinary.
The forecast starts off with nothing on Friday the 3rd of July. There's a weak 4ft WNW swell but with a cross-onshore breeze and a mix of small wind ripples, the conditions are poor. The combined energy is only 255 (moderate) but the quality isn't there. Saturday the 4th and Sunday the 5th are much the same – tiny waist-high waves with messy cross-shore winds and weak energy readings as low as 60. Monday the 6th and Tuesday the 7th barely register a pulse, with nothing above 2ft. We're stuck in a flat spell for the first full week, from the 3rd through to the 12th.
The only faint spark in the whole run comes on Monday the 13th of July. The morning shows a small 3ft swell from the W with a very promising 12-second period – that's a long-period groundswell. Even better, there's a light offshore breeze from the NW, so the wave faces should be clean. The combined energy hits 268 (moderate), and while it's described as "surfable but very ordinary", in this bleak run, it's the best we've got. But keep in mind Pic Kipu is an inconsistent, sheltered reef that needs a WSW optimum direction, and this swell is from the W, so it won't line up perfectly. The afternoon gets battered by a 30 km/h cross-offshore wind, so chase the morning. Tuesday the 14th has a similar early window with a 4ft WNW swell at 11 seconds and light cross-offshore winds, but again the afternoon gets blown out. After that, it trails off into tiny, unrideable slop for the rest of the second week, with some moderate cross-shore chop on the 18th.
Honestly, this is a blank run for Pic Kipu. It's a picky break at the best of times, and there's just no proper swell energy to get it going. Keep an eye on the morning of the 13th and possibly the 14th, but don't hold your breath. The rest of the time, you'd be better off doing something else.
Rusty.

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