The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here again. Let’s break it down in feet and miles. The next 16 days are a dry spell for the most part. No real surf until Saturday, July 25th, and even that’s a small deal. For a full week before that, it’s dead flat with waves under 1ft and weak energy.
The one window to watch is Saturday morning, July 25th, at Wabasso. This sandbar rarely breaks, but it’ll see a tiny pulse of east swell, about 2-3ft, with a 10-second period. The combined energy hits a moderate 123, which is a real change from the nothing we’ve had. The wind is light from the south, leaving the surface clean. Water temp is about 84°, which is pretty average for this time of year. Since it’s an inconsistent spot, you’ll be waiting for sets, and the east swell isn’t the ideal direction for this break, but it’s all we’ve got.
The rest of the 16 days? Forget it. Saturday afternoon the wind goes cross-shore and the quality vanishes. There’s a clean morning on August 1st, but the waves are under 1ft. Not worth a second look.
If you’re keen, the 25th morning is your one shot, but it’s a long shot. For a break that rarely shows, this is a whisper, not a roar.
Stay safe.

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.
