Alright, Rusty here again. Let’s talk about this stretch in feet and the stuff you can feel.
We’re looking at a single spot and it’s just not happening for the whole 16 days. The story repeats: small swell, bad wind. Nothing changes.
Kicking off Friday the 10th of July, you’ve got a 2-3ft north swell but a 25 km/h cross-on wind tearing it up. Absolutely messy. Water’s around 72°F, normal for this time of year. Swell energy is weak (56). Saturday and Sunday the 11th and 12th are tiny—1ft to 2ft from the northwest, period around 8 seconds. Winds are light to moderate but still cross-shore or cross-on. Sunday the 12th sees a bump to 4ft NW swell with some morning offshore wind, but the reports still call it poor. Monday and Tuesday, the 13th and 14th, hang around 3 to 3ft with variable onshore and cross-on winds. Wednesday the 15th and Thursday the 16th get a little bigger, 4 to 5ft, but the wind picks up to a fresh 30 km/h in the afternoons. That’s a kite-surfing breeze, not a paddle session.
Through the second week, from the 17th onward, the swell builds. Saturday the 18th of July pushes into 5ft, but the wind is a problem—30 to 35 km/h and cross-on. The energy climbs to moderate (289–385). The best size hits around the 19th and 20th with 6ft swell from the north, period up to 9 seconds, and energy peaking at 637. The wind direction on the 20th and 21st mornings might be more onshore, offering a lull, but the surf quality is still marked poor.
Honestly, it’s a blank run. No decent surf to recommend at all. You might see a cleaner window here and there, but the quality never comes together. This is just one of those spells where you wait.
Rusty.

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.
