Table - best surf conditions forecast for Vari over the next 16 days.
G’day, Rusty here, and I’ve gotta be straight with ya – this outlook for Vari is a tough one. We’re lookin’ at a long, dry spell with barely a ripple for most of the next 16 days. The first proper surf recommendation doesn’t pop up until Wednesday, July 22nd, and even then it’s pretty weak. Before that, from Friday, July 10th right through to Tuesday, July 21st, it’s all flat with zero wave energy – just clean, glassy mornings and a bit of wind, but nothin’ to paddle out for. That’s a solid 12 days of nothin’.
The only real sniff of a wave comes on the mornin’ of Wednesday, July 22nd at Vari. It’s a south-southwest swell, tiny at 1 ft, with a short period of 5 seconds – so it’s all windswell, no real grunt. The combined energy is a measly 9 (weak), so it’s barely a ripple. Wind is light offshore from the NNW, glassy, so the surface will be pretty clean, but the wave size is so small it’s only worth a look for absolute beginners on a foamie. The water temp is about average for this time of year, nothin’ unusual. The break itself is inconsistent and a beginner-friendly spot, but with this lackin’ swell, don’t expect much more than ankle-biters. The afternoon of the 22nd goes onshore and even smaller, so forget it.
Honestly, if you’re desperate for a paddle, that Wednesday mornin’ is your only window, but it’s not worth writin’ home about. The rest of the forecast through to July 25th stays flat with no swell energy. The winds are often offshore or cross-offshore, keepin’ things clean, but there’s just no ocean movement. For kite surfers, this setup is a total dud too – no wind strength to speak of.
So, in short: nothin’ doin’ for the next two weeks except a whisper of a wave on July 22nd mornin’. Keep an eye on the charts, but for now, maybe wax the longboard and wait.
Rusty.

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