Updates in hr min s Forecast update imminent
Alright, Rusty here again. Let’s cut through it – the surf is pretty flat and ordinary for a long stretch around here. The first real day worth paddling out is Wednesday, July 8th, so there’s a gap before anything good shows.
Water temp is about 57°F, which is right around normal for this time of year.
The only break we’re looking at is Redbill Beach. It’s an exposed beach break and it’s inconsistent, so you can’t just show up and expect waves. The pick of the whole 16 days is Wednesday morning, July 8th. We’ve got waves around 3ft from the ESE with an 11-second period, and the wind is glassy – totally calm. That means clean, lined-up surf, with moderate energy (277). The water temp is about average.
Wednesday afternoon holds up too – 4ft from the SE at 10 seconds, still glassy, and energy bumps up to 417. That’s your window.
Then it drops off. Thursday the 9th morning has a weak 2ft swell. Friday has a long-period (15-second) SSE swell but it’s only 1ft – hardly breaking. Saturday and Sunday are messy with small surf and stronger winds.
Next potential window is Tuesday, July 14th morning – 3ft from the south at 8 seconds, clean with light cross-off winds, energy at 231. Not big but rideable.
The biggest swell of the whole forecast is Wednesday, July 15th morning – 8ft from the south at 11 seconds, with a massive energy reading of 1267. That’s strong stuff. Wind is a fresh 30 km/h cross-off, so the surface will be clean, but at that size on a beach break, it’s for experts only. It’ll be powerful and heavy.
Thursday the 16th morning looks solid too – 5ft from the SSE with glassy winds and 447 energy – that’s a clean session for experienced surfers. Friday and Saturday the 17th and 18th have fun 4ft to 5ft waves, but the period is short (5 to 6 seconds), so don’t expect much shape or push.
All in all, Wednesday July 8th morning is your gold – waist-to-chest high, glassy, clean. If you’re an expert, Wednesday July 15th morning is the biggest and most powerful, but you’d better be ready for it.
Rusty.

Information about the Redbill Beach Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Redbill Beach provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Redbill Beach can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Redbill 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 (Redbill 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 Redbill 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.
Redbill Beach is 106 km (66 miles) from Launceston. If you plan a holiday in East Coast of Tasmania, look for hotels and other accommodation in Launceston. Launceston has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
