The Lowdown
Alright, this is Rusty talkin’. Let's get straight into it.
Well, folks, I gotta be honest with you – the next couple of weeks are lookin' pretty flat and quiet for The Wedge (Allenhurst). The surf forecast is a bit of a desert, with a lot of days offering nothing but small, weak waves and poor conditions. The combined wave energy is mostly in the low double digits, sometimes even single digits, which tells you it's just not happening. There's a long stretch of flatness from the start all the way through to the end of July, with only a tiny flicker of something on the 30th.
That tiny flicker comes on Thursday, the 30th of July. The morning is still tiny, but the afternoon sees a pulse of 5ft swell from the south, with a period of 6 seconds. This pumps the combined energy up to 158 – finally something to work with. The wind is a light SSW breeze, which is cross-offshore, so the waves will be clean. But that swell period is short, so it's gonna be a bit crumbly and disorganised, and for a beginner that 5ft swell might be a bit much. It's not a standout, but it's the only game in town.
That's really it for the whole 16-day window. After that, it's back to tiny, weak waves with a mix of onshore and cross-off winds right through the first week of August. The water temperature is about 74°, which is pretty normal for this time of year, so the water's not gonna be a shock. Honestly, this setup looks more interesting for a kite surfer than a paddle surfer, if there's any wind.
Better luck next time, folks. The forecasts can change, but right now, it's a tough stretch.
