The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on offer at Walton Rocks (Power Plant). I’m going to be straight with you – this is a tough one. We’ve got a 16-day window ahead, and it’s mostly a long, flat stretch of nothing special.
The first day worth mentioning is Thursday, July 16th, but don’t get your hopes up. We’re looking at a tiny 1.0ft swell from the ENE, with a short period of 6 seconds. The combined energy is just a weak 9. Plus, a cross-on wind from the ESE is going to mess up what little there is. It’s basically a write-off.
For the next week and a half, it’s a real grind. The swell is constantly small, rarely cracking 3ft, and the period is short. We keep seeing a bit of cross-off or offshore wind in the mornings, which keeps things clean, but there’s just no wave energy behind it. The afternoons are routinely blown out by onshore or cross-shore winds. You’ll be sitting on a glassy, flat ocean most mornings.
The one glimmer of hope comes right at the tail end of the period. On the morning of July 30th, we see a slight uptick. The wind goes light offshore from the SSW, and the swell bumps up to 3ft from the E with a period of 8 seconds. The combined energy reaches a moderate 92. It’s not pumping, but it’s clean and surfable. The water temperature is a touch warmer than normal at 86°.
Then on Friday, July 31st, the morning sticks with an offshore wind from the SW, with a 2ft easterly swell. The energy is 71, and the winds are a gentle offshore, keeping it clean. That’s your best bet of the whole run.
Even then, the surf is pretty ordinary. For a spot that’s very consistent and exposed to the NE, it’s a frustrating wait. The swell direction never really matches the optimum NE direction we’d want to see here. It’s a beach and reef set-up, so when the swell is that small, it’s a real struggle for any decent shape.
Overall, this is a long, lean period. The standout is that Thursday morning, July 30th, and the Friday morning, July 31st, with the clean offshore winds and the biggest, most organised swell we’ll see. But it’s still only a 1 out of 10 scenario. Don’t plan a trip around it.
Rusty.
