The Lowdown
Hey folks, Rusty here. Let's be real, this 16-day forecast is a tough one to write. The ocean is basically asleep for the vast majority of it.
We're looking at a massive gap with no surf. From Thursday, July 16th, all the way through the next week, the wave energy is a big fat zero (0) and conditions are just "poor." It’s a long, quiet stretch of flat water.
The only break that even gets a mention is Vari. It's a beginner spot, but it’s inconsistent and rarely breaks, so the fact it pops up is worth noting. It's exposed to the south.
The first real chance of a wave is on the morning of Saturday, July 25th. A tiny swell, 1ft from the south, with a 5-second period, will show up. The combined energy is a weak 9. The wind is light offshore from the north, so it should be clean. That’s the best we’ve got. The water is 79°F, which is a notable 4°F warmer than average for this time of year – feels like a warm bath.
It’s a bummer, but it is what it is. The swell is just too small and weak to get any real excitement going. For a total beginner, that Saturday morning might be a fun little paddle, but for everyone else, it’s a flat spell to wait out.
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.
