Table - best surf conditions forecast for Trespassers over the next 16 days.
Alright, this is Rusty. Let's have a look at what's on offer for Trespassers over the next couple of weeks.
Alright, straight up, the next few days are a write-off. We’ve got a lot of swell, but it’s coming in with nasty winds. Friday and Saturday are a mess with strong onshore and cross-shore winds, and the swell is just too raw and chopped up to bother with. We’re looking at a solid gap of poor conditions all the way through to the middle of the following week.
The one real standout window is Wednesday, July 15th. The morning is looking like our best bet. The wind is light and offshore from the NE, swinging cross-offshore, and the swell is a clean 5 ft from the SW. The combined energy is moderate (1163), and with that light air, it’s going to be smooth. The afternoon holds similar, just a touch smaller at 5 ft, but still clean. This is the session to aim for.
Thursday the 16th is still okay, but the swell is dropping. Morning is clean with a 4 ft SW swell and light cross-offshore winds, but the energy is dropping (618). It’s a smaller, more marginal day, but still a lot better than what came before.
After that, the wind starts to get messy again. Friday the 17th has some cross-shore chop, and by Saturday the 18th, a strong breeze is going to ruin the surface. The following week looks like a repeat of onshore winds and poor conditions, with a few days of swell around 6 ft to 7 ft in size, but it's all blown out.
So, for the full 16 days, there’s only one real standout. Be ready for Wednesday, July 15th. That’s the one with the cleanest conditions and the best swell. The rest of the time, you’re better off doing something else.
Rusty.

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