The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s coming down the pipe for the next couple of weeks.
Alright, we’re kicking off with a solid run of surf at Quatro-Once (411). This is a point break, consistent, and good for beginners. The water is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, running at 86°. The combined swell energy is reading moderate (515) on Saturday afternoon, so there’s plenty of push.
Early on, Saturday afternoon we’ve got a 4ft SSW swell at 13 seconds, with glassy conditions and light rain. That’s a proper clean start. Sunday morning is even better: 3ft SSW, completely calm, glassy. The swell is a little smaller, but the quality will be there. The best of this first wave is Saturday afternoon and Sunday morning – clean, lined up, and easy to paddle.
Monday morning (20th July) is another glassy one with 3ft SSW at 12 seconds. The combined energy is climbing (562), so it’s got good shape. The wind is dead calm. This is a standout window for the first week.
The following week, things get bigger. By the 28th of July, the swell jumps to 5ft SW with a 17 to 18 second period. That’s a proper groundswell. The combined energy is strong (1689), and the wind is cross-off or glassy. This is for experienced surfers only – 5ft is pushing into the too-big-for-beginners zone. The long period (over 15 seconds) means it’s going to wrap nicely around the point, but it might close out the beach sections. The 28th Tuesday morning and afternoon, plus the 29th Wednesday, are the absolute standouts of the whole run. Perfect, clean, powerful.
Toward the end, the swell drops back to 4ft to 3ft, with clean conditions on the 31st Friday morning and the 1st August Saturday. The confidence is high for the first week, but the bigger stuff in the second week is a bit more of a long-range promise – still looks tasty.
Overall, the best on offer is the big swell window from 28th to 30th July, especially Tuesday and Wednesday mornings. For the smaller, cleaner waves, the 18th Saturday and 20th Monday mornings are the pick. Crowds are sometimes a factor here, so get out early.
Rusty.

A general guide to surfing at Quatro-Once (411) can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu.

Further information to help with frequently asked questions about our surf forecast for Quatro-Once (411) 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.
