Alright, let's get into it. Rusty here.
Right off the bat, I gotta be straight with you—this is not a good run for Pic Kipu. We’re looking at a long, dry spell across the whole 16-day outlook. There’s just no real surf to get excited about. The first few days are poor, with tiny, weak swells and the wind is all over the place. It’s a real bummer for a reef that can be a bit special.
The first Thursday afternoon (July 2nd) we see a 4 ft swell from the W, but the wind is a howling 19 mph from the WNW, making it a cross-off mess. Combined energy is weak at 240, and the water temperature is sitting at a much warmer than normal 67°F. That’s over two degrees above average for this time of year, which is notable.
Friday (July 3rd) morning is a bit of hope with a clear sky and a light 6 mph NE breeze, but 4 ft swell feels weak, and it’s a cross-shore wind, not the clean offshore we’d want. Energy climbs to 363 in the afternoon with a 5 ft swell, but still, the cross-off wind from 16 mph WSW isn’t doing us any favors, and the pulse is short, at a 10-second period.
We drop right off after that. From Sunday (July 5th) onwards, the swell is under 3 ft, mostly 2 ft or less. The combined energy reading is in the weak double digits for most of the second week, falling as low as 2 on Friday July 17th. There are a few mornings with offshore winds (July 12th and 13th) but with wave heights of 3 ft from the ENE with a 4-second period, it’s just windswell slop—not worth paddling out for. The 11-second period on July 11th afternoon sounds promising, but again, the swell is only 2 ft.
With only one break in the game and no decent swell arriving, I’d say leave the board in the van. For this region, a blank run like this isn’t that unusual, but it still hurts. The setup could be more interesting for kite surfing with those steady cross-off and cross-on winds and the small, choppy conditions, but for a paddle surfer? Not much to chase. Forecasts change, but this one’s a long wait.
Rusty.

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.
