Alright, Rusty here. Let's take a look at what's on the menu.

Honestly, the next couple of weeks are looking pretty grim. We’ve got a solid run of cross-shore and cross-onshore winds that are just going to mess up any chance of clean waves at Shooting Gallery. The water temp is sitting at 71.2°, which is about normal for this time of year, so no surprises there. But the wind… it’s a constant problem. For the first few days, from Saturday the 4th right through to Tuesday the 8th, we're looking at small, weak waves with cross winds. The swell energy is low, barely breaking 273 (combined energy) for that first Saturday morning, and then it drops right off. It’s just not worth paddling out for those crumbly 1.3ft to 3.6ft waves with a cross-chop.

From Wednesday the 9th through to the end of the forecast on Sunday the 19th, the swell does pick up a bit, but the wind stays nasty. We see the swell height creeping up, even hitting 5.2ft on Tuesday the 14th, Wednesday the 15th, and again on Saturday the 18th, with the combined energy climbing as high as 324 on the 15th. That sounds promising, but the problem is the wind. It’s almost always a cross-onshore breeze, often a fresh breeze at 18.6 mph, chopping up the surface. Even though the swell is from the north and northwest, the optimum direction for Shooting Gallery is NNW, so there's some alignment, but the wind just ruins it. The period is short too – mostly 5 to 8 seconds – so it’s not going to have any power or shape.

Because of the persistent onshore wind and moderate wave heights, this setup actually looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing. You’ll get a consistent breeze and some lumpy waves to play on, but for a clean, surfable wave, you’re going to be disappointed. There are no standout sessions here. The entire 16-day window is a write-off for a good surf. Sometimes that’s just how it goes – the conditions don’t line up.

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.
