Hey mates, Rusty here. Let's talk about what's coming down the pipe.
Honestly, it’s a pretty quiet outlook for the whole 16 days. We're seeing consistently small waves and a lot of "poor surf conditions" in the data. The combined swell energy never gets over triple digits (the best is only 78), so don't hold out for any power. For the first week, from Sunday the 5th through Saturday the 11th, it’s all tiny 0.7ft to 2ft waves out of the east or southeast, with short periods between 4 and 9 seconds. It’s not what we’re after. There are some clean, glassy windows, like Sunday afternoon the 5th when the wind goes glassy from the northeast, and Wednesday morning the 8th with a glassy SSW breeze. But the waves are just too small to really ride.
The most notable moment is on the 20th of July, Monday morning. The swell bumps up a touch to 2ft from the southeast, but the period is still a short 4 seconds, so it'll be a bit messy. The wind is light and cross-shore, so the surface will be clean, but the energy is weak at 33. For a standout, I’d look at those glassy windows at Walton Rocks (Power Plant). It's a beach and reef setup, very consistent in the sense it always has something, but it's exposed to the northeast, and these swells are just too small. Crowds can show up sometimes, so that's something to factor in.
Since this is a beach and reef spot and the surf quality is so poor with these weak, short-period swells, it might be a better setup for kiting than surfing on the windier days.
So, we’re looking at a big flat spell. It's a long stretch of days with no real recommendations, from the 5th all the way through to the 20th. It's a dry run, but for this area, that's pretty normal. Forecasts can change, so keep your ears open, but for right now, the stick is staying in the rack.
Rusty.
