The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s break it down.
We’ve got a bit of a slow start, but a proper run of swell kicks in later. The first wave hits Monday morning, July 13th, with a clean, glassy 3ft SSW swell running at 13 seconds. That’s a proper groundswell, and the water’s a warm 86°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year. The combined energy is moderate (354), so there’s enough push.
The standout is the mornings. From Monday through Wednesday morning, the wind is light to glassy from the NE or ENE, keeping the surface clean. The swell holds around 3ft to 3ft, still from the SSW, with periods around 13-14 seconds. That’s a nice, long period for a point break or reef. The energy dips a bit by Wednesday morning (362) but still solid.
Thursday morning, the 16th, offers another glassy start with a 3ft SSW swell, but it’s smaller. The energy is moderate (328). Friday morning, the 17th, brings a 2ft SSW swell with clean, cross-offshore wind from the north. The energy drops (291). Saturday morning, the 18th, looks good with clean offshore wind from the NNE and a 3ft SSW swell, period 13 seconds. Energy is moderate (384).
Sunday the 19th sees a drop to 2ft, but the period jumps to 19 seconds – a very long groundswell. Glassy in the morning. Energy is moderate (354).
Then a lull from the 22nd to the 24th, with waves dropping to 1ft – 2ft and low energy. The mornings are glassy, but it’s only for a longboard or a quiet paddle. Energy is weak (74-75) on the 23rd and 24th.
But hold on, because the 25th of July brings a change. Saturday morning starts with a 2ft SSW swell at 21 seconds. The energy jumps to 380 (moderate). The real standout is Sunday, the 26th. The morning is a beauty: 3ft SSW swell, 19 seconds, clean cross-offshore wind from the ENE, and the energy hits 604 (strong). That’s a proper standout.
And Monday the 27th might be the pick of the whole run. A 4ft SW swell, 18 seconds, with glassy conditions and zero wind. The energy is strong (748). That’s a serious session for the experienced crew. It’s a bit bigger, so if you’re a beginner, it might be pushing it at over 5ft, but for the rest of us, it’s gold.
Tuesday the 28th still has some nice 3ft SW swell at 16 seconds, with a glassy morning and strong energy (541).
Overall, the best on offer is the Sunday 26th morning and Monday 27th morning. Get on it.
Rusty.

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