Alright crew, Rusty here with the look ahead for our patch. We’ve got a solid run of surf kicking off, but it winds down to a long quiet spell, so make your moves early.
We start with Wednesday morning, July 8th—not massive, but the conditions are sweet. Tuncurry-North Wall has a clean 3ft of swell out of the ESE with a solid 14-second period. The wind is light and offshore from the SSW, meaning the surface will be clean. The wave energy is moderate (347), and for a beginner-friendly spot, this is a good, honest option. The water temp is about average for this time of year.
The real standout, though, is Thursday morning, July 9th. We get a jump to a meaty 8ft of SE swell with a 10-second period. The combined energy is strong (1020), and the wind is a light offshore. This is excellent surf, but at 8ft it’s getting into that expert territory—not for the faint-hearted. You’ll want your wits about you.
The rest of that week holds decent, clean waves. Friday keeps a solid 6ft to 6ft SE swell with light cross-off winds, very good conditions. Saturday morning has some 4ft surf but with cross-shore wind making it a bit of a mess. Saturday afternoon cleans up again with 3ft and offshore wind.
After Sunday the 12th, the swell drops away fast. From Sunday morning through to the 20th of July, we have a long stretch of weak, small surf—mostly under 3ft and often less than 2ft. Not much to get excited about, with poor conditions and very low wave energy. Around the 18th and 19th, we see a little bump of 3ft to 3ft from the ESE, but the period is short and the conditions are ordinary. This looks more like a blank run for the area.
There is a flicker of hope late in the period. Tuesday morning, July 21st, brings glassy conditions with 3ft from the NE. And Wednesday morning, July 22nd, shows a 5ft NE swell with offshore wind, but the period is short at 6 seconds. That one could be a bit bumpy. Thursday the 23rd holds a cleaner 4ft NE swell with strong offshore wind. These are promising but still a ways out, so treat ‘em as a maybe.
For the week ahead, Thursday morning is the one to circle. After that, the sandbags come out.
Rusty.
