G’day, Rusty here. I’ve got to be straight with you – the outlook for the next 16 days is a tough one to write. We’ve got swell, but the wind is the story, and it’s not a good one.

Let’s start with Walkers. It’s picking up a consistent run of ENE swell, but it’s getting hammered by a persistent easterly breeze that’s blowing cross-onshore. The combined swell energy is moderate, hitting between 300 and 900 at times, but the wave state is consistently described as "poor surf conditions" – lumpy, messy, or choppy. We’re talking cross-onshore winds from the E and ENE, mostly in the 15 to 28 mph range, with a few days up into "strong breeze" territory. That means the surface is going to be a mess.

Right from Tuesday July 7th, the swell is there – 7 ft of 8-second ENE swell (energy 461) – but it’s crossed up by a fresh E wind. That same pattern holds through Wednesday and Thursday, with the swell building to 8 ft (energy pushing 900), but still with that strong cross-onshore wind. The periods are short, under 8 seconds, so it’s windswell, not groundswell – no real shape to the waves. The break is consistent and exposed, but with the wind in this direction, it’s like trying to surf in a washing machine.

This setup is more suited to kite surfing than paddle surfing – if that’s your thing, the consistent wind and swell will be more interesting for you. For the rest of us, we’re in for a blank run. The conditions don’t improve through the second week; it’s more of the same right up to Wednesday July 22nd. There is no standout day, no window where the wind backs off or goes offshore. Everything is cross-on or directly onshore.

It’s a rough run, but this area often has these extended spells of onshore wind. Forecasts can change, but for now, I’d give the boards a rest and wait for an improvement.

Rusty.

Information about the Walkers Surf forecast

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