The Lowdown
Alright, crew, Rusty here again. Let’s break down State Line in feet and miles.
We’re starting off slow. Tuesday morning has a little 2ft SSW swell with a 13-second period, but the wind is cross and the water is about 57°, which is normal for this time of year. The energy is moderate at 485, but it’s only marginal. Tuesday afternoon is even worse.
Wednesday morning picks up a bit with a 4ft NW swell, but it’s a short 10-second period and cross winds. The energy is a bit better at 660, but still not clean. The rest of the week through Friday morning is pretty flat and messy.
Then, Friday afternoon on the 17th of July, a solid 10ft NW swell hits with a 7-second period. The energy is strong at 1264, but that short period means it’s going to be bumpy and jumbled. The wind is cross, and the wave comment says it might be too big for this break. That’s expert-only.
The real standout is Monday the 20th of July. That afternoon, we’ve got a 2ft SW groundswell with a long 16-second period, and the wind goes glassy. It’s clean, smooth, and the energy is moderate at 581. That’s the best call of the whole forecast—small but perfect, and crowds are possible, but it’ll be worth it.
Looking further ahead, the 25th of July brings a huge 10ft NW swell on Saturday afternoon with a very short 7-second period, and strong cross-offshore winds at 25 mph. The energy is massive at 1763, and it’s clean, but only for the experts. The 27th of July has another 10ft NW swell, same story.
Between those, there are a few small 3ft to 3ft SW swells with longer periods, but the wind is often cross or light onshore. Nothing special, but you’ll get wet.
So, the best bet? Monday 20th July afternoon for that glassy, clean 2ft SW groundswell. Second pick is Friday 25th July afternoon for the big, clean, expert-only conditions. The rest is mostly small and marginal, with a few big, chunky days for the brave.
Rusty, out.

Information about the State Line Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for State Line provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at State Line can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our State Line 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 (State Line) 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 State Line 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.
