The Lowdown
Alright mate, let’s talk in feet and miles per hour now.
The first week and a half is mostly a non-event at Velzyland, a reef break that holds its own when conditions line up. Water temp’s about 74°, nothing special for the time of year.
Tuesday the 11th and Wednesday the 12th – just forget it. Cross winds and sloppy 3 ft swell aren’t your friend. You’re paddling for nothing.
Thursday the 13th morning is the first real look. Swell is 3 ft from the SE, 13 seconds, and the wind is a light 9 mph offshore from the north. Clean conditions (energy 302) – it’s a low-key session but it works.
Friday the 14th morning is your clear winner. Swell holds at 3 ft from the SSE, 14 seconds, and the wind is glassy at just 3 mph from the NNE. That’s the kind of morning that reminds you why you surf. Moderate energy (294) but the clean, lined-up reef waves make up for it.
Saturday the 15th morning is another cracker: swell builds to 3 ft from the SSE, still a meaty 14 seconds, and the wind is offshore from the north at 3 mph. Energy jumps to strong (513). Not too big for most, but packing punch. Second best in the run.
Then Sunday the 16th through to Thursday the 21st? Dreadful. Onshore junk, short period slop, and by the 21st the swell is flat – 0.3 ft. Stay home.
Saturday the 22nd morning might be a desperation call – glassy again but just 3 ft from the east with a sad 7-second period and weak energy (122). It’s surfable the way day-old bread is edible.
The 26th Wednesday morning shows a long-period spike: 4 ft SSE swell, 17 seconds, energy strong at 692. But it’s a marginal call with tricky conditions and strong north offshore winds. Only for the experienced crew on a reef.
So here’s the bottom line: Friday 14th and Saturday 15th mornings are your gold. Everything else is either flat, messy, or a long shot. If you’ve got a flexible schedule, chase those two windows.
Rusty.

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