Alright folks, Rusty here again, lookin' at Spot X. Water's sitting at 19°, about normal for this time of year.
The whole 16-day window is a story of plenty of swell, but the wind is the villain. We start Sunday the 12th with a solid 10ft SW groundswell (4762 energy), but that 12 mph SSW breeze is gonna chop it up. The afternoon settles a bit, wave faces around 12ft, lighter wind.
Monday the 13th is more lumpiness with 12ft SW swells and cross-onshore wind. The energy is there, but it’s not pretty.
Now for the highlight. Tuesday the 14th is the day. We’ve got a clean 10ft SW groundswell with a long 15-second period (3565 energy), and a light 6 mph offshore wind from the NE. That means smooth, lined-up waves. This reef is very consistent and exposed to the WSW direction that’s bringing the swell. At 10ft this is for experienced surfers only, so be smart. Expect a few others in the water, but the quality will be top-notch.
Wednesday the 15th is a battle. Swell drops to 6-8ft, but that 25 mph cross-offshore wind will keep it clean but wild.
Then the wind goes nuts. From Thursday the 16th through the weekend, it’s cross-shore, onshore, and gusty. The swell hits 13ft on Friday the 17th but with a short 9-second period and onshore wind – just messy. Honestly, from the 16th onward through the weekend, this looks more like a kiteboarding zone than a paddle surf spot.
Sunday the 19th we get a 13ft groundswell with lighter wind. Monday the 20th, 8ft swell but storms and strong cross-offshore winds.
The biggest day is Saturday the 18th with a massive 20ft WSW swell and 22,072 energy, but onshore winds and that size is too big for the break.
The second week is a mix. Some 5ft to 7ft SW swells from the 21st, but the wind is onshore or choppy. A big 16ft spike hits Thursday the 23rd, but again, onshore and messy.
Bottom line: the whole 16 days only has one true gem – Tuesday the 14th. That offshore wind with a long-period SW groundswell is your golden window. The rest is a wind-swell mess with only brief moments of hope.
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.
