The Lowdown
Alright, I’m looking at the full 16-day picture for Walton Rocks (Power Plant). To be honest, the news is pretty flat. We’re looking at a long stretch of small, weak, east-southeast swell that just doesn’t have any push. The combined wave energy never gets out of the two-digit range; it’s sitting at a measly 22 on the first day and barely climbs above 60 at the best of times. It’s a tough outlook, no sugar-coating it.
The whole period starts with a bit of a dud. Thursday morning (23 July) we’ve got a tiny 1 ft east swell, but it’s cross-onshore and choppy with a combined energy of only 22. That’s barely a ripple. Friday (24 July) is a little better, with swell height creeping up to 2 ft, but it’s still cross-onshore and the energy is only 64. It’s messy. Saturday (25 July) sees the wind swing a bit more cross-shore, but the swell is still small, around 2-2 ft, and the energy is low. It’s not rideable in any meaningful way.
The real standout, if you can call it that, comes on Sunday (26 July) and Monday (27 July). The wind turns cross-offshore and the water goes clean, even glassy for a moment on Monday afternoon. The waves are tiny, 1 ft, with an 8-second period, but the conditions are clean. The combined energy is a weak 21-22. It’s a longboard or a funboard wave, if you’re desperate. For a surfer, it’s the best of a bad lot, but it’s only for the patient.
After that, the pattern holds: small 0.7-1 ft east swell, with mostly offshore or cross-offshore winds through the end of July and into August. It’s clean, but the energy is pathetic. The 30th of July through the 1st of August has some glassy or clean conditions, but the swell is gone. The 3rd of August sees a slight bump to 1 ft, but it’s with a moderate breeze. By the 6th and 7th of August, the swell is down to 0.7 ft and the period drops to 7 seconds. The energy is in single digits.
Honestly, there’s no surfable swell here. The whole 16 days is a write-off. The break is a beach and reef, exposed to the east, so it needs a proper groundswell to work. With this tiny, short-period windswell, it’s just not happening. For the first week, the best you’ll find is a clean, knee-high ripple on Sunday and Monday. The second week is even worse. If you’re a kite surfer, the moderate offshore winds on the 4th and 5th of August might be interesting, but for paddle surfing, leave the board at home.
