Alright, Rusty here again, but in feet and knots for you. Let's break down this Slip Point forecast.

Honestly, it's looking like a tough run for the next couple of weeks. There's a huge stretch of flat or just plain ugly surf ahead, and the first real opportunity doesn't show up until Wednesday, July 22nd. That's a long, slow wait.

For the first week and a half, it's just not happening. Starting Sunday the 12th, we've got tiny waves, barely 2-3ft on a short period of 8 to 9 seconds, and every bit of it is spoiled by onshore or cross-onshore winds. The energy is barely there. Monday the 13th through to the 21st is mostly flat or junk. There's a little 1-2ft bump on Tuesday the 14th morning, and a few scattered readings, but the wind is never your friend. It's a big dry spell.

Now, here's the one to keep an eye on. Wednesday morning, July 22nd, Slip Point might finally get its act together. We've got a 4-5ft swell out of the W, coming in at 9 seconds between waves. That's enough power to get a proper wave face, with combined energy hitting 304 – a moderate kick of juice. But the real beauty is the wind: a glassy, light cross-offshore breeze from the ENE at only 3 mph. That's clean conditions, my friends. The break works best on a WNW swell, and we're coming from the W, so it's close enough to draw some nice lines off the point. Because it's over a week out, treat this as a promising weather window rather than a dead cert. That is the one morning to be in the water if you can.

That 4-5ft swell may be pushing it for total beginners on the sets, but with clean glass it's a good one for a solid intermediate. The rest of that day and the days after drop straight back to flat and onshore junk.

When you're looking at a forecast this quiet, that one bright spot is all you've got. Save your energy for the 22nd and hope the ocean plays ball.

Rusty.
