Alright, Rusty here with the lowdown for Pobbles Beach.
It’s gonna be a slow, drawn-out affair, so don’t get your hopes up too early. The water is running at 67°F, which is a good 8°F warmer than average for this time of year – feels like a warm bath out there. But the waves? Barely a ripple.
From July 3rd right through the 17th, it’s a whole lot of nothing. The combined wave energy is mostly stuck under 100, which tells you it’s weak. Tiny surf, messy cross-shore breezes, and only a few glassy mornings that will give you a clean, flat ocean. You’ll be floating, not surfing.
Then, on Saturday, July 18th, we finally get a pulse. The morning brings a clean 6ft swell from the SW, with an 8-second period. The wind is light offshore from the NW, so it’s going to be smooth and lined up. The combined energy jumps to 362 (moderate energy), which is the best of the entire forecast. That’s our one and only standout, but it’s more than a week away, so treat it as a promising tip, not a sure thing.
The afternoon of the 18th pushes the swell to 7ft from the WSW, but the wind cranks onshore at 15 mph, making it choppy and unsurfable. Stick to the morning.
You’ve got a long flat stretch, and then just that one morning, July 18th, to target. Set a reminder and cross your fingers.
Rusty.

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