Table - best surf conditions forecast for Spot x over the next 16 days.
Alright, Rusty here with the scoop for Spot X. We’ve got some serious swell headed our way, but the wind is the wildcard. It’s gonna make or break the sessions.
The top pick of the whole run is Tuesday morning, July 14th. The swell is a meaty 10 feet out of the SW with a long 15-second period, packing a combined energy of 3813. The wind is clean and glassy offshore from the NE at 9 mph, grooming the reef for perfection. The water is 66°, which is normal for the season. For the experienced surfer, this is a dream session. Just know the spot gets crowded sometimes, but for a morning like that, it’s worth the company.
The other standout is Friday, July 24th. The morning brings 12 feet of SW swell with a 14-second period, and a combined energy of 4249. The wind is a clean cross-offshore from the NNE at 12 mph, keeping things tidy. The afternoon holds up with 10 feet of swell and a lighter breeze. This is a solid, powerful two-day window for the experts.
The rest of the forecast is a bit of a battle. The swell is there, but the wind is all over the place. Monday afternoon the 13th starts with 12 feet, but the cross-on wind makes it lumpy. Wednesday the 15th is blown out with 25-31 mph winds. Then we get a massive pulse on the 18th – 18 feet of SW swell with a 16-second period – but the wind is screaming onshore at 19 mph, turning it into a total mess. That’s more for the kiteboarders. The following week is a mix of onshore and cleaner days, with the swell bouncing around. The end of the month, from the 26th to the 28th, is mostly shot with strong onshore winds.
So, the golden tickets are Tuesday the 14th and Friday the 24th. The rest of the month is a gamble. Keep an eye on the charts, and grab those windows when they open.
Catch you later, Rusty.

Information about the Spot x Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Spot x provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Spot x can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Spot x 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 (Spot x) 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 Spot x 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.
Spot x is 75 km (47 miles) from the city of Bunbury. If you plan a holiday in Margaret River, look for hotels and other accommodation in Bunbury. Bunbury has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
