Trespassers Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s take a look at what’s on the cards for your local stretch.

The next two weeks are a bit of a mixed bag. We’ve got some clean, workable conditions to kick things off, but then a long stretch of ordinary, messy wind and swell that will test your patience. The real highlight, if you’re willing to wait, is a massive pulse of energy arriving right at the end of the month.

The first real window is Saturday morning, July 18th. Trespassers is the spot. We’ve got a clean 3ft SW groundswell with a solid 14-second period, pushed by a light cross-off breeze from the NNE. The water temp is about average for this time of year, so nothing special there. The combined energy is moderate at 332. It’s not big, but it’s clean, lined up, and should be a nice, easy session. It’s a fairly exposed reef, so it’ll pick up that energy well. Expect to see a few others out, as crowds are sometimes a thing here.

After that, things get ugly. From Saturday afternoon all the way through to the end of July, the wind is a mess – mostly cross or cross-on, and the swell is either small or blown out. The surf quality is poor, and the guidance says it’s not worth your time. You’ll be looking at a long, dry spell of over a week.

Now, the standouts. The real action kicks off mid-week, Wednesday July 30th. This is the one to circle on your calendar. Trespassers is going to be absolutely pumping. The combined energy is massive, hitting 4,474 on Thursday morning, and climbing to a whopping 7,428 (strong to very strong) by the afternoon. We’re talking a solid 10ft of SW groundswell, with period around 14 seconds. Wind is a gentle cross-off from the SW, which will keep the face reasonably clean. This is a serious, expert-only swell. If you’re a beginner, stay well clear. For the experienced crew, this is a proper session. The crowd could be a factor given the size, but for a wave of this quality, it’s worth it.

The following morning, Thursday July 31st, still has good size, but the wind is a problem. The stand-out is hands-down the afternoon of July 30th. That’s the one.

So, to sum it up: enjoy the small, clean stuff on Saturday morning, July 18th, then bunker down for the wait. The reward is that massive, solid swell hitting on July 30th. It’s a long-range call, so keep an eye on it, but it looks like a proper belter.

Rusty.
