The Lowdown
Alright, grab a seat and let’s have a look at what’s on the table for the next couple of weeks. The forecast is a bit of a slow burn, but there’s a shot of proper surf coming if you’re patient.
Right now, the water is sitting at 72°, which is a touch warmer than what we’d normally expect for this time of year – a nice little bonus for the early sessions.
The first few days are a write-off, to be honest. Small, weak waves and poor conditions. Not a single decent option until around Friday the 21st. That’s a long stretch of flat and messy.
Friday morning the 21st, things start to turn. We’ve got a 4ft NW swell rolling in with a 10-second period, and the wind is a light cross-off from the WSW. That’s clean. The combined energy is moderate (457), so there’s a bit of grunt behind it. Rodiles - Main Beach is picking it up. It’s not a world-beater, but it’s the first proper surfable wave in the window.
The standout moment, no question, comes on Thursday the 27th. That morning, a 7ft NW swell arrives with a 9-second period, and the wind is a clean cross-off from the WSW at 15 mph. The combined energy is strong (795). This is solid, punchy surf. It’s pushing into the intermediate zone, so it’s not for grommets, but it’s clean and has some push. The crowds are often around here, so expect company.
Friday the 28th morning is another good one, with a 5ft NW swell, 10-second period, and light cross-off winds. Combined energy is strong (515). Clean, consistent, and a bit more manageable than the day before.
After that, the swell fades quickly. The last week of the forecast is pretty quiet, with small, weak waves and glassy mornings but nothing to get excited about. The best of the bunch is on Monday the 31st morning, with a 3ft NW swell and glassy conditions, but it’s just a little fun wave, not a standout.
So, bottom line: the first week is a dud, then Friday the 21st gets things going. The absolute best is Thursday the 27th morning with that 7ft NW swell and clean cross-off. Friday the 28th morning is a solid backup. After that, it’s back to small stuff.
