Redbill Beach Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright, Rusty here. Let’s talk about what’s shaping up for Redbill Beach.

To be honest, the next 16 days aren’t looking like a classic run for this place. There are a few windows where you could get wet, but nothing that’s going to fire for days on end. We’ve got a bit of a slow start mid-week, but the standout session is actually kicking things off.

The best bet by a long shot is Tuesday morning (August 11th) at Redbill Beach. We’ve got a clean 4ft swell pushing in from the northeast with a 10-second period, and the water is sitting at 57°, which is a touch warmer than usual for this time of year. The combined swell energy is solid at 679 (moderate wave energy), and with a gentle cross-offshore breeze, it’s going to be clean and lined up. That’s your window.

Tuesday afternoon holds up nicely too, with 4ft from the east-northeast and even more energy (816) with barely any wind. Definitely worth a session if you can sneak away.

Wednesday morning (August 12th) drops off a little; the swell dips to 4ft and the wind shifts, making it harder work for not much return. Wednesday afternoon actually cleans up with an offshore wind and 3ft from the east. It’s small but rideable.

Thursday through Sunday (August 13th to 16th) we are looking at small surf. Mornings are mostly clean, but the swell hovers around 2ft to 3ft. Saturday morning (August 15th) is glassy with 3ft from the south, which is about as good as it gets in this stretch, but still small.

From Monday the 17th through the end of the third week, it’s pretty grim. Swell drops to ankle-snappers and the wind is messy, with only a few glassy pockets in the mornings of the 19th and 20th. The 23rd and 25th see a bit more size (4ft to 6ft) but the wind is cross or choppy, and the period is short, so it’s not going to be pretty.

There’s a flicker of hope on the morning of Wednesday, August 26th. We get a clean 4ft from the north-northeast with an offshore wind, and the energy jumps to 265. That afternoon turns glassy with 5ft. That could be a decent end to the run, but remember, this far out (over a week away), treat it as a promising maybe, not a lock.

So, if you’re keen, hit Tuesday morning (August 11th). That’s the real standout. The rest is mostly small and ordinary, with a few clean but tiny windows.
