Seven Mile Beach and Point Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright, this is Rusty. Let's get into it.

Look, I'm not gonna sugarcoat it. The next couple of weeks are looking pretty flat for the most part. We've got a long stretch of small, inconsistent surf with only a few brief windows where it gets a little interesting. The real standout here is Seven Mile Beach and Point, and here's why.

The water temp feels pretty standard for this time of year, nothing unusual to mention.

The best bet is Monday the 13th through Tuesday the 14th. That's your one true standout. We've got a long-period groundswell coming from the south, with periods hitting 19 seconds on Monday morning. That's a proper swell, with a combined energy of 347 (moderate) building to 515 (moderate) in the afternoon. The wave heights will be modest, around 2ft to 3ft, but that long period will give them some real shape and punch. It's a point break setup, and with an offshore wind from the WNW, things will be glassy and clean. The winds get lighter on Tuesday morning with a gentle offshore breeze, and the swell holds at 2ft with a 17-second period (combined energy 293). This is the pick of the bunch.

Now, a word on that long period. Swells over 15 seconds like this can sometimes be a bit tricky at a beach break, but at a point break like this, it'll wrap in nicely. The sets will be a bit spaced out, but that makes the paddle out easier, and the wave quality should be well above average for the size. Also, it's inconsistent here, so keep that in mind; the sets might not be non-stop, but when they come, they'll be worth it.

From Wednesday the 15th onwards, it drops right off. The combined energy falls into the double digits, and we're looking at wave heights barely cracking 2ft for days. There's a big gap of poor conditions from the 19th all the way through until the 24th of July where there's really nothing to recommend. The winds are mostly cross-off or messy, and the swell is just not there.

There is a brief flicker on the 24th and 25th of July. Thursday the 24th afternoon goes glassy with a 2ft south swell (19-second period, combined energy 204). It's still small, but glassy conditions are a huge plus. Saturday the 25th morning is also glassy with a 1ft south swell.

But honestly, the main event is Monday and Tuesday. After that, it's a long wait. Forecasts can change, and this spot can be consistent, so don't write off the whole run, but as it stands, get out early next week if you can.

Rusty.
