Point Addis Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's on offer.

We've got Point Addis as our main event for this stretch. It's an exposed reef break that needs a good SW swell, and right now we're looking at a bit of a waiting game. The first real chance to paddle out won't come until Tuesday, July 7th. Before that, things are flat or just too messy to bother with.

Tuesday morning the 7th is where we start. The water temp is sitting around 58°, which is pretty much what you'd expect for this time of year. We've got a clean 4ft SW groundswell rolling in with a very long 17-second period, and it's glassy – dead calm wind. That's the kind of session you wait for. The energy is solid, so you'll feel the power, but those long gaps between sets will make getting out the back a bit easier. It's a standout for sure, especially for a reef like this.

The next proper highlight looks like Thursday morning, July 16th. A solid 5ft SSW swell, period at 14 seconds, with light offshore wind from the NW. Conditions are clean. This one's got excellent written all over it for experienced surfers. The afternoon on the 16th will still have size – about 6ft – but that wind swings onshore, so the morning window is the one to lock in.

Now, there's a big spike in size on Monday, July 13th. We're talking 16ft to 18ft of SW swell. The combined wave energy is massive. But honestly, that's way too much for this break – it's an expert-only situation, and even then, it's likely too big for a good time. The wind and tide are favorable, but when it's that size, it's just a show.

The first week has a few smaller, cleaner windows – like Friday morning the 10th with a 3ft SW swell and cross-offshore winds – but nothing that grabs you by the collar like the 7th or the 16th.

Into the second week, things get smaller and windier. There's a pulse on Sunday the 19th with a 4ft SW swell, but we've got a strong breeze from the north at 28 mph. It'll be bumpy. The 20th looks better again, with light offshore NW wind and a clean 4ft SW swell. That's a solid morning session.

If you're picking the best of the whole run, it's Tuesday morning, July 7th, for that glassy, long-period SW groundswell, and Thursday morning, July 16th, for the bigger, clean SSW swell. Mark 'em on the calendar.

Rusty.
