Table - best surf conditions forecast for Wabasso over the next 16 days.
Alright folks, let’s be straight with you – this is a tough one. Wabasso’s sandbar is the only break on the radar, and honestly, it’s looking like a long, flat spell ahead. The setup is a rarely-breaking spot that needs a very specific window to work, and this 16-day run just doesn’t have the juice.
We’ve got a gap of poor surf conditions stretching from the start of the forecast right through to the end of the period. From Saturday the 11th of July all the way to Sunday the 26th of July, everything is marked as “poor surf conditions.” The combined swell energy is weak, often sitting in the single digits or low teens, with the highest reading hitting just 72 on the 23rd of July afternoon – still a low, weak energy reading. The swell heights are tiny, bouncing between 0.3 ft and 2 ft, with short periods mostly around 7 to 8 seconds, so there’s no real push or shape.
The water temperature is 84°F, which is about normal for the time of year, so at least a dip will feel like bathwater.
Because the swell is so small and the wind is often cross or cross-off, this looks more like a kite-surfing setup than a paddle-surfing one. The bigger afternoons with a moderate breeze and a bit of cross-chop will be skippable for surfers.
There are no standouts here. No days to circle. The break is inconsistent, and the forecasts show nothing changing. It’s one of those blank runs that’s just normal for this area. Keep your gear ready, because forecasts can shift, but right now, there’s nothing to ride.

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