Table - best surf conditions forecast for Wabasso over the next 16 days.
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on offer.
Well, I gotta be straight with you – this is a tough one. We’re looking at a solid 16-day window, and honestly, there’s nothing to get excited about for the whole stretch. The water temp is sitting at 84°F which is about average for this time of year, so at least the water’s nice, but the surf… mate, it’s just not happening.
The first sign of any real swell is a no-show. We’ve got a long gap from the start all the way through. The swell stays tiny, barely a ripple, with the combined energy sitting at a pathetic 52 (weak energy) right at the beginning and never really climbing above a moderate 51 (weak to moderate energy) at best. The swell direction is mostly from the east, not the optimum NNE direction that Wabasso needs, and the period is a short 8 seconds. That’s just windswell, not groundswell, and it’s not enough to surf.
Wabasso is a sandbar that rarely breaks, so this is a normal pattern for the area. The wind is often cross or cross-onshore, chopping it up, even when it’s clean. There’s a couple of glassy mornings around the 18th of July, but with only 1.0ft of swell, it’s a lake. The biggest swell we see is a tiny 2ft on the 15th of July, but the wind is cross-shore and the energy is still weak. It’s just not worth paddling out.
There are no standouts here. I’d say save your energy and wax for another day. The forecast can always change, but for now, it’s a flat spell. Stick the board in the garage and go for a swim.
Rusty.

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.
