Alright, Rusty here. Let's have a look at the stretch ahead for Sebastian Inlet-First Peak.
Honestly, mate, I gotta level with ya. The next couple of weeks are looking pretty flat and uninspiring. We've got a long stretch of tiny, weak energy and messy wind that’s just not gonna give us much to work with. There’s a big gap of basically nothing on offer for over a week and a half. The first real sniff of anything surfable doesn't pop up until Saturday the 18th of July.
For the first week and a half, from Friday the 3rd through Friday the 17th of July, we’re looking at a real doldrums. Swell heights are stuck between 0.7ft and 3ft, and the combined wave energy barely breaks into double digits for most of that time, often sitting below 50 (weak energy). The wind is all over the place – morning glass-offs and light breezes get ruined by afternoon sea breezes that kick up the chop. It’s clean in the early hours, but the swell is just too small to push anything worthwhile. A few mornings like Sunday the 5th, Wednesday the 8th, and Saturday the 11th have offshore winds (SW), but on waves that tiny, you’re just looking at ankle-biters.
Then, finally, on the morning of Saturday the 18th of July, things perk up just a fraction. The swell picks up to about 3ft from the ESE, with a period of 8 seconds. The combined energy climbs to 75 (still moderate, but the best we've seen). More importantly, the wind goes cross-offshore from the S at 9 mph. The report says “surfable waves but very ordinary conditions.” It’s a 1 out of 10, but it’s a wave. It’s not going to be epic, but you could get a few weak, crumbly waves on the bank, and the clean conditions will make it feel better than it looks on paper. That’s the only window you’d even bother paddling out for in this whole 16-day outlook.
The rest of that final weekend and into the next week looks like more of the same small, choppy slop, so don't get your hopes up after that one morning.
Rusty.

Information about the Sebastian Inlet-First Peak Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Sebastian Inlet-First Peak provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Sebastian Inlet-First Peak can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu.

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 Sebastian Inlet-First Peak 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.
