Alright, Rusty here again. Let’s call it how it is – Shooting Gallery is in a rough patch. Over the next 16 days, there’s no real green light. It’s a persistent run of poor conditions with that cross-onshore wind jamming things up.
The first few days – Monday the 6th through to Sunday the 12th – are flat and choppy. Swell is tiny, mostly under 3 ft, with short periods and weak energy (17 to 117). The wind is cross or cross-onshore from the north, keeping the surface bumpy. The swell direction is from the north or NNW, which is ideal for the reef, but the wind won’t cooperate. No reason to paddle out.
From Monday the 13th, the swell starts building – 4 ft from the NNW, moderate energy (215). But the wind picks up to a fresh 19 mph cross-onshore. Same story, messy surf. That pattern holds right through to the end. By the 17th, swell hits 5 ft, and energy gets strong (342 and 379), but every session has that north cross-onshore wind at 16 to 19 mph. The surf stays rated "poor."
In the second week – from July 13th onward – the swell is there, but it’s all wind-affected. No offshore windows, no glassy moments. The period hangs around 8-9 seconds on the bigger days, but it’s lumpy. By the 17th, at 5 ft, it’s over 5 ft, so beginners should stay clear, and the wind chop makes it expert-only if you’re desperate. Honestly, with that steady cross-onshore wind and decent wave height, this is more of a kite-surfing setup than a paddle-surfing one.
No standouts. No clean days. Sit this one out.

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