Alright, this is Rusty. Let’s have a look at Sandy Mouth.
To be straight up with you, the next two weeks are a pretty tough stretch for waves here. There's a gap of nearly two weeks from the start of the forecast period before we see anything worth getting excited about, and even then, it’s not a classic. The first *real* chance of something rideable doesn’t roll in until Monday the 21st of July. Up until then, it’s mostly tiny, weak, or blown-out conditions, not worth wetting a wetsuit for.
The best option on offer, and really the only standout, is on the morning of Monday the 21st of July. We see a solid little spike of energy—combined swell energy hits moderate at 253—pushing in from the northwest. The swell size jumps to 6ft with a short period of 7 seconds. That’s a bit of a lumpy, wind-affected westerly swell, but the wind is a gentle cross-shore from the north. That’s going to keep it clean enough to have a crack. It won’t be perfect, but it’s the biggest and most energetic surf in the entire outlook, and the light wind will make it surfable. For the morning session, it’s your best bet.
For the rest of the run, it’s a lean period. From Monday the 6th all the way through to Sunday the 20th, the waves just don’t have any size or grunt, and when there’s a bit of shape, the wind is often messy. You get a few glassy mornings on Wednesday the 8th and again on Thursday the 16th and Friday the 17th, but the swell is so small—around 1ft to 2ft—it’s barely enough to push a log along.
That morning of the 21st is the real call. The water temperature at the start of the period was noted at 63°F with a 3°F anomaly, so a touch warmer than normal for the time of year at Sandy Mouth. Come the 21st, the energy is there, the wind is okay, and it’s the only day worth planning for.
Rusty.

Information about the Sandy Mouth Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Sandy Mouth provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Sandy Mouth can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Sandy Mouth 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 (Sandy Mouth) 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 Sandy Mouth 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.
