The Lowdown
Second text using imperial units:
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let me lay it down straight – as we look ahead over the next couple of weeks, the picks are slim, and I mean real slim. There are days and days of nothing happening. We've got a stretch from today, the 14th, all the way through the 19th of July where it’s basically a flat lake out there. Don't bother checking the cam.
The first whisper of life shows up on Monday the 20th of July morning. We’re looking at a tiny 0.7ft S swell, but with a period of 4 seconds it’s just pure chop, no push. Wave energy is weak at (1). The wind is glassy though, so if you’re desperate for a splash, maybe. By the afternoon, the onshore kills it entirely. The day after, Tuesday the 21st, there’s another 0.7ft S swell, with a period of 5 seconds, energy still a paltry (2). Again, the glassy afternoon conditions are a tease but with zero wave height to work with.
After that, we fall off a cliff again. From Wednesday the 22nd right through until the end of the period on Wednesday the 29th of July, the forecast shows no surfable swell whatsoever. It’s a solid blank run for the region. The wind picks up often, mostly cross-off or offshore, but without any swell to groom, it doesn’t matter. If the ocean ever decides to wake up, the conditions are likely to be clean, but that’s a long way off.
So what’s the verdict? There are no standouts here, folks. None. It’s a tough one to swallow, but this is one of those times where a blank run is pretty normal for the area. The glassy and offshore windows we see are promising for when the swell finally shows up, but for now, leave the boards in the car and maybe find something else to do.
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.
