The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here again, giving you the same rundown in feet and miles per hour.
Right now, the surf at Shooting Gallery is a complete bust. From Friday the 24th of July through the end of the month, it’s a mess. You’ve got a fresh breeze blowing cross-onshore, and the swell is mostly from the north, running 4 to 6 feet, but with short, weak periods of 6 to 8 seconds, making it lumpy and choppy. The combined energy is moderate (305 to 442), but with that wind, the wave quality is just poor. Don’t bother.
The first sign of life doesn’t come until Saturday the 1st of August. The wind dies right down to a slight air, almost glassy, and the swell turns a bit more north-northeast. It’s small, around 5 feet, with a short 7-second period, and combined energy is moderate (287). It’s marginal, but the glassy conditions make it worth a look if you’re desperate.
Sunday the 2nd of August changes things up. The swell drops to 2 feet, but it’s a north-northwest direction with a longer 11-second period, giving it a bit more groundswell character. The wind is light and cross-shore, and combined energy is moderate (279). It’s small, but the longer period means better shape. Good for a fun board.
The real standout is Monday the 3rd of August. The morning is clean. The swell is 3 feet from the NNW with a 10-second period, and the wind is light and cross-offshore. The water is glassy, combined energy is moderate (340), and the wave quality is genuinely good. The afternoon picks up to 4 feet with a 12-second period, but the wind picks up a bit, still staying clean. This is the session to target.
After that, Tuesday the 4th of August holds around 4 feet from the north with a 12-second period, but the wind is stronger and more cross-shore, so it’s less clean. The swell fades through the rest of the week, with small, choppy waves right to the end of the 16-day window.
So, bottom line: a long, dry spell from the 24th of July through the end of the month. Saturday the 1st of August is a minor hope, but Monday the 3rd of August is the pick. Hit that morning, and you’ll get the best of the bunch.
Rusty, out.

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.
