The Lowdown
Alright, let me tell you how it’s looking for Walton Rocks (Power Plant).
Honestly, mate, it’s a tough stretch ahead. We’ve got a long, flat run to start. From Wednesday, July 29th, right through to Friday, August 7th, the swell is barely a whisper – we’re looking at waves struggling to reach 0.7ft to 2ft, with a combined energy that’s barely registering (8 to 28). That’s not surf, that’s a lake. There’s nothing to get excited about for a solid week and a half.
The one and only standout in the whole 16-day window is Saturday morning, August 8th. That’s when things finally wake up. We’re going to see a jump to 4ft of easterly groundswell, with a period of 10 seconds – that’s enough to push some energy through. The combined swell energy will be strong (257), so you’ll feel the push. The real beauty is the wind: light and variable from the SSW, giving us clean, glassy conditions. With an offshore breeze from the SW and the break exposed to the NE, this is your best window. Keep in mind though, this spot can get busy, so you won’t be alone. After that morning window, the wind shifts and the quality drops off again.
Small pulses roll through the second week. There’s a bit of ENE swell around the 10th to the 13th of August, with waves around 2ft to 3ft and a longer period of 11 seconds. That longer period means better shaped waves, but there’s a catch – a beach and reef set-up like this can sometimes turn that long-period swell a bit straight. The winds are mostly offshore or cross-off from the SW and W, keeping it clean, but the energy is only moderate (104 to 156). It’s surfable, but nothing compared to that Saturday morning.
The water temp is a balmy 84°, which is pretty average for this time of year, so no worries there.
Bottom line: if you can only paddle out once in the next two weeks, make it Saturday, August 8th, first light. The rest is a flat spell with a few average days chasing it.
