Schnappers Point Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's talk about what's coming up at our one and only spot on the radar.

The next week and a half is a real mixed bag, with mostly flat or poor conditions stretching out for the first week. We've got a dry spell, basically, from today all the way through until the end of the first week of July. It's gonna be a frustrating wait for any kind of decent wave.

The only place to look at is Schnappers Point. It's a point break that's fairly consistent, but the crowds can be an issue here often, so keep that in mind.

Now, the first sign of life doesn't show up until the 14th of July. Tuesday afternoon brings a bit of a pulse: a 2 ft swell from the North with a period of 7 seconds. The wind will be glassy, which is a huge positive. The energy is moderate at 340, and the wave comment says to expect good surf conditions. This is a solid little window to wet a line, but it's not a standout.

The real standout, the one to truly circle on your calendar, is the 15th of July. Wednesday morning is looking absolutely prime. We've got a solid 8 ft North swell, but listen up: at that size, this is for experienced surfers only. It's too big for beginners. The period is a solid 10 seconds, and offshore winds from the South at 10 km/h will keep it super clean. The combined energy is pumping at 1282, which is strong. The water temperature is about average for the time of year at 56°, so it'll feel normal. This is the pick of the whole outlook. The afternoon on the 15th will still be very good with a 7 ft North swell and clean offshore wind, but morning is the winner.

After that, it drops off again. The 16th offers a small 2 ft wave, and things go quiet from there.

So, to sum it up: don't bother with the first week. The real action, and the only true highlight, is Wednesday morning, the 15th of July at Schnappers Point for experienced surfers. It's a long way off, but it's looking promising. Stay patient.

Rusty.
