The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you – this 16-day window is a total bust. I’m looking at the charts and there’s just nothing doing. The forecast shows zero swell energy for the entire period, with the combined energy sitting at a flat zero (0) across every single session. What we’ve got is a long stretch of clear skies and wind, but without any waves to push around, it’s all just a tease.
The first week starts off with a solid northerly breeze, mostly cross-off, but the ocean is flat as a pancake. We’re talking Wednesday the 29th of July right through to Sunday the 2nd of August – no surf. Then we roll into the next week, Monday the 3rd, and it’s still dead. The wind does go glassy and offshore at times, especially on the Monday afternoon and again on Wednesday the 5th of August, but there’s nothing to ride. Thursday the 6th brings a fresher breeze, still no waves. The pattern just keeps repeating: offshore winds, clean conditions, and absolutely no swell. This goes right through to Thursday the 13th of August.
There are no recommendations to be found. The only break on the list is Vari, but it’s rated as beginner, inconsistent, and it just doesn’t fire in this setup. It’s a tough run, but in this area, a blank spell like this isn’t unheard of. The good news? It rarely stays this poor for long. Forecasts can change, and we could see something pop up in the next update. For now, leave the boards in the shed and maybe clean the wax off.
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.
