Warner Beach Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on offer at Warner Beach over the next couple of weeks.

First up, we’ve got a bit of a slow start. The surf is there, but it’s a bit of a mixed bag with the wind. The water temp is sitting about average for this time of year, so no surprises there.

The best action on the table is the window from the morning of Saturday the 1st of August and the Monday morning of the 3rd of August. That Saturday morning, the swell is a solid 7 ft from the SSW, with a period of 13 seconds. That’s a nice, powerful groundswell. The combined energy is a beastly 2308 (very strong), and with a clean, glassy-offshore wind from the NNE, this is going to be absolutely pumping. This is for experienced surfers only at that size, but the waves will be well-shaped and powerful. The paddle out will be easier with the longer gaps between sets.

The other standout is the Monday morning of the 3rd of August. It’s an 18-second, 6 ft south swell with a massive 2240 combined energy. The wind is glassy, coming from the south at just 3 mph. This is going to be clean, long-period groundswell that will wrap in beautifully. Again, this is one for the more experienced crew, as it’s a solid 6 ft and those long-period swells can be a handful.

Now, before that, there’s a promising blip on the morning of Friday the 31st of July. A 6 ft south swell with a 16-second period and clean cross-offshore winds. The combined energy is a whopping 3647, which is very strong, but the 4/10 score suggests it’s slightly marginal. Could be a good session if you’re selective.

The early part of the week from Sunday the 19th to Thursday the 23rd is mostly a write-off due to poor wind directions and choppy conditions. The surf is there, but it’s not clean. The Tuesday morning of the 21st shows a brief window of clean 5 ft surf with a cross-offshore breeze, but it’s not a standout.

The weekend of the 26th and 27th is a real dud – small, messy, and blown out. Don’t bother.

The long-range Saturday the 1st of August morning is the pick of the bunch, but as always, keep an eye on the forecast as it gets closer. The Monday the 3rd of August morning is a real tip for the patient surfer.

For the big swell days on the 31st and 1st, if the wind turns onshore, it’ll be a beast, but it’ll be a choppy mess. The setup at Warner Beach is exposed, so it can handle the size, but it needs the right wind.

Stay safe, keep your eyes on the horizon, and I’ll catch you in the lineup.
