Table - best surf conditions forecast for Waverly over the next 16 days.
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s take a look at what we’ve got for Waverly over the next couple of weeks. I’ll be straight with you – it’s a tough run.
Looking at the whole 16-day window, we have zero recommendations coming through. That means no good surf options on the table at all. The waves are tiny, the energy is low, and the conditions just aren’t playing ball. It’s a long, blank stretch ahead.
Now, because there’s no surf to recommend, I’ll give you the context. For the immediate future, Tuesday afternoon the 7th of July, we’ve got a weak 3ft swell from the ENE with a short period of 6 seconds. The combined energy is a meager 62, and with a moderate cross-onshore wind at 16 mph, it’s just choppy and messy. Nothing to get excited about.
The whole first week looks much the same. Swell heights barely tick over 3ft, periods stay short under 8 seconds, and the energy readings are all below 100. We get a few cleaner moments, like Friday morning the 10th with a light cross-offshore breeze (62), but the waves are only 1ft. It’s clean but tiny. Saturday the 11th morning has a fresh cross-offshore wind at 19 mph, but the swell is a paltry 2ft from the ENE. Not worth paddling out for.
We move into the second week, and honestly, it’s more of the same. There are some glassy moments on Saturday the 18th and Sunday the 19th of July, with zero wind and clean conditions, but the swell is laughable. Saturday morning shows 0.7ft (energy 7) and Sunday morning has 3ft from the south (energy 45). It’s flat, but it’s pretty. For the rest of the period, winds will be mostly cross or cross-off, but the wave heights stay below 3ft, periods hang around 6-8 seconds, and energy never cracks triple digits.
With swell this small and poor quality, if you’re a kite surfer, those cross-off breezes on a few days might look more interesting than paddle surfing, because there’s just no push for a surfer.
Given this area isn’t showing any consistency in the forecast, it might be a normal blank run. Keep an eye on it though – forecasts can change. For now, save your energy.
Rusty.

Information about the Waverly Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Waverly provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Waverly can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Waverly surf forecast is unique since it includes wave energy (power) that defines the real feel of the surf rather than just the height or the period. If you surf the same spot (Waverly) regularly then make a mental note of the wave energy from the surf forecast table each time you go. Very soon you may start to choose your surf days based on the wave energy alone combined with our forecast of favourable offshore wind conditions. Our star ratings will help here and of course you will also find the usual wave height and period predictions on our surf forecasts as well as a full break down of the swell components under our advanced users option (to reveal that, click the little Einstein character under the tide times).
Further information to help with frequently asked questions about our surf forecast for Waverly may be found under the help tab on the top menu and also by moving your mouse over the question marks on the surf forecast table itself. Please always bear in mind that the forecast is for near-shore open water and local factors at each surf break influence the actual breaking wave height, such as the beach / reef profile, water depths offshore and shelter.
