The Lowdown
Alright, let’s break it down in feet and miles per hour for the crew who think in imperial.
For Tuncurry-North Wall, it’s a long dry spell. From Wednesday the 2nd through to Monday the 14th, the surf is mostly tiny and weak. We’re lookin’ at wave heights from 1 foot to 2 feet, with almost no energy behind 'em. There’s a brief bump to about 4 feet on the afternoon of Saturday the 5th, but with short-period chop, it’s not worth the paddle. The local sandbanks will be starvin' for a proper set.
You gotta wait until Wednesday the 16th. That morning brings around 5 feet from the east-northeast, with glassy wind and combined energy of 324 (moderate wave energy). That’s the first real opportunity. The standout is that afternoon, though – the swell jumps to about 7 feet from the east-northeast, still glassy, with energy at 488 (strong wave energy). That’s proper, but at that size it’s gettin' a bit heavy for beginners.
Thursday the 17th morning carries it on with around 6 feet from the northeast, clean with a light cross-off breeze. The energy is 402 (strong wave energy). By the afternoon, the wind turns onshore, so get out early.
The best call is Tuncurry-North Wall on Wednesday the 16th, from the morning through that glassy afternoon session. That 7 foot east-northeast swell with no wind is the highlight. Just know that crowds are often around. Water temp is about 65°F, so average for the season.
Rusty.
