The Lowdown
Howdy folks, Rusty here. Let's chew the fat on the next couple of weeks for the Gold Coast.
It's a two-act play: a whole heap of solid, long-period SW groundswell, but the wind is the director. The first few days are a total bust with strong onshores, but then it cleans up into some killer, powerful surf for the big dogs. There's a flat spot in the middle before another big, sloppy pulse, and the final act is just plain dangerous.
The water is sitting at 67°, which is slightly warmer than usual for this time of year.
First up, we gotta be patient. Saturday the 25th is a dud. There's a 4ft SW swell with crappy cross-on wind, and the energy is weak. Sunday the 26th gets angry: 16ft to 18ft of SW swell with a strong cross-on wind. The energy is pumping, but it's just a mess. No go.
Monday the 27th is the turning point. Surfers Point (Gold Coast) is the spot. The big SW swell drops to a still-serious 12ft, but the wind swings clean cross-off. The morning is iffy, but Monday afternoon is the standout of the first week. We're talking 12ft of SW groundswell with a 13-second period, and a gentle cross-off wind. The combined energy is a solid 4106, so there's a ton of water moving. The swell direction is perfect for this break, and the long period means it'll reel off. This is serious, expert territory only. If you can handle it, this is the one to circle.
Tuesday the 28th keeps the goodness rolling. The 10ft SW swell hangs in there with a 14-second period. Morning has a light offshore, and then the afternoon goes glassy. Glassy. 10ft of long-period groundswell with zero wind. That's as clean as it gets. The energy is still high at 3858. This is the prettiest surf of the whole forecast. Wednesday the 29th stays clean with smaller, but still punchy, 8ft to 6ft waves.
We hit a shoulder on Thursday the 30th. The swell drops to 6ft, the period stays long, but the quality drops off. Friday the 31st gets ugly again with onshore winds. Another day off.
Saturday the 1st of August brings a new pulse. A 13ft SW swell arrives with a cross-off wind. The combined energy is a massive 7444. It's still a bit raw, but for the hardened charger on a big gun, there will be serious, clean lines to be had. This runs through Sunday the 2nd with 10ft sets and eases into Monday the 3rd with clean 8ft waves and light winds.
The forecast gets wild for the second week. Tuesday the 4th is a full storm event: a 13ft W/SW swell with an insane 19-second period, but smashed by a fresh cross-on wind. Just too lumpy. Wednesday the 5th is even worse. Thursday the 6th is a possible go, with 13ft swells and a clean cross-off wind in the afternoon, but it's still raw.
The real promise for the second week is Friday the 7th of August. The morning looks exceptional for experts: an 12ft WSW groundswell with a 15-second period and a light offshore wind. The energy is high (5745), and the combo of direction, period, and clean wind is about as good as a distant forecast gets. It's a long-range standout, so keep an eye on it.
We see a shift to a NW windswell on the 8th, which is big but messy. Finally, on Sunday the 9th of August, the forecast loses its mind. A massive 26ft to 28ft W groundswell is predicted, with a 16-second period and gale-force onshore winds. The combined energy for that afternoon is a staggering 36810. That's catastrophic. The file says it's too big for this break, and I'm telling you to stay the hell away from the water.
To wrap it up: The standouts are Monday the 27th of July afternoon for the first big, clean pulse for experts only. And Tuesday the 28th of July afternoon for the dreamy, glassy, 10ft groundswell.
Rusty out.

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.
