Redbill Beach Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright, let's look at the next stretch. It's going to take a little patience. For the next few days, the surf is going to be pretty uninspiring, so don't be in a hurry to grab your wetsuit.

The surf opens on the 9th with some 6ft waves, but it's short-period and a little jumbled. The energy is moderate, but it's not going to be a classic. It might be worth a look if you're desperate, but it won't be pretty.

Thursday the 10th is your best early bet. The wind goes glassy overnight, and we'll see 5ft of south swell with a longer period. The surface is going to be smooth as a lake, and that's going to make it clean and fun. It's not the biggest, but it's your best chance of a decent session in the first week.

After that, it backs right off. The weekend looks weak and messy, so don't expect anything. There's a small bump on Sunday the 13th with some clean conditions, but it's only around 3ft. Not really worth paddling out for unless you're on a longboard.

The second week’s proper story starts Friday the 18th. That's when the ocean wakes up. We've got a solid 8ft of south swell, short period, but it's hitting with strength. The energy really builds, and with offshore wind predicted, it's going to be heavy and hollow. This is the standout. That's the day to make time for.

There's another promising window on the 19th with glassy conditions and 5ft of swell, making it another good option. And the 20th looks fun – 6ft of swell and glassy – but the direction is not great for this break, so take that with a grain of salt.

A quiet spell follows, and it gets fairly small and mushy. The far end of the forecast shows another pulse of size, but it's so far out, we'll call it a glimmer, not a guarantee.

Keep in mind the water temp is about 56° on the 9th, which is a bit warmer than usual, so it's not going to be too cold.

Plan for Thursday morning if you want some clean waves, but the real big dog of the period is Friday the 18th. Lock it in.

Rusty.
