The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s get into it. We’ve got a 16-day window that starts quiet, then builds into something truly special for the experienced crew. The main event is all about Surfers Point, a reef break that loves a good WSW groundswell.
The water is running a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, coming in at 67°, so you might be able to leave the 4/3 in the car for the early morning sessions.
The first few days are a bit of a slow burner. Tuesday the 21st is a write-off with 8ft of cross-shore chop and messy conditions. We see a real step up on Wednesday the 22nd. The swell pumps to 12ft from the SW with a solid 14-second period, combined energy hitting a strong 4735. The wind goes light offshore from the E, keeping it clean. This is big, powerful surf – definitely for advanced surfers only. The morning is the pick, but the afternoon holds up nicely too. Thursday the 23rd is still solid with 8ft SW groundswell and a clean cross-off wind, but the energy is a bit lower.
We hit a lull over the weekend. Friday the 24th is small and weak, and Saturday the 25th is average with a bumpy afternoon. Sunday the 26th is a complete write-off with a strong onshore flow and messy 10ft surf. That rough, onshore wind pattern sticks around through Monday the 28th, making it a poor stretch for paddle surfing.
Now, here’s where it gets interesting. A long-range groundswell shows up on Wednesday the 30th of July. It’s only 4ft, but the period is 16 seconds, and we get a clean, moderate offshore wind from the E. It’s small, but the quality is there for the experts to get some long, clean lines. That swell builds through Thursday the 31st, jumping to 12ft from the WSW with a 16-second period and a massive 5979 combined energy. The wind is a clean cross-off, but it’s a fresh breeze, so you’ll want to be on your game.
The absolute standout is Sunday the 2nd of August. This is the one to circle on the calendar. The forecast is calling for a 13ft to 16ft WSW groundswell with a 16 to 19-second period. The combined energy is monstrous, hitting 7605 and then a staggering 16730. The wind goes glassy, dead calm. This is a world-class, heavy reef break at its absolute peak. The afternoon session might be a touch too big, but the morning is shaping up to be exceptional for expert surfers. Expect it to be packed.
The run continues into Monday the 3rd of August with another 13ft swell and a clean offshore wind. The energy is still huge at 9480. After that, the onshore winds return on Tuesday the 4th, shutting it down again.
So, to keep it simple: if you’re a beginner, this whole period is a no-go. The swell is just too powerful. For the advanced crew, the standout is undoubtedly Sunday the 2nd of August at Surfers Point. The combination of that massive, long-period groundswell and glassy conditions is about as good as it gets. The Wednesday the 22nd and Monday the 3rd are also fantastic, heavy days.
Keep an eye on the wind for the 31st of July, as the size is there but the breeze is a bit strong.
Rusty.

Information about the Surfers Point Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Surfers Point provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Surfers Point can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Surfers Point 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 (Surfers Point) 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 Surfers Point 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.
Surfers Point is 93 km (58 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.
