Westfalia Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Righto, Rusty here with a look at what Westfalia's got cookin' over the next couple of weeks. We're lookin' at a stretch that starts off a bit so-so, but there's a sneaky window of proper fun on the horizon if you're patient.

The water temp is sittin' right around average for this time of year, nothin' wild there.

Sunday the 6th kicks things off with a small 4ft ENE windswell, period a short 8 seconds. The morning has glassy conditions, which means the surface is clean, but the energy is pretty weak (207). It's surfable but don't expect much push. By the afternoon, the wind swings onshore and it gets messy.

Monday the 7th is more of the same; small 4ft swell, and the wind is cross-off in the morning keepin' it tidy, but it's not gonna set the world on fire.

We drag through Tuesday the 8th, still small. The afternoon goes glassy again with that 4ft swell, but it's just ordinary.

Now, things start to get interestin' from Wednesday the 9th. The swell bumps up to 6ft in the morning and 6ft by the afternoon, but the wind is rubbish – onshore – and the energy is moderate (402-565). It's a pass.

Thursday the 10th is where it's at. The mornin' brings a clean 7ft swell (849) from the ENE with a 10-second period. The wind is light offshore from the SSW, makin' for some clean faces. This is the standout session of the whole run. It's pushin' into that bigger range, so it's more for the experienced crew. The afternoon holds up nicely too with 6ft and glassy conditions.

Friday the 11th mornin' still has some juice with 6ft and clean conditions from a cross-off breeze. A solid second option. The afternoon gets chopped by a cross-on wind, so bail out before lunch.

After that, the swell slowly drops and the wind patterns get mixed. Saturday the 12th and Sunday the 13th are messy with cross and cross-on winds makin' it hard to find a good bank.

Then we get a real treat on Monday the 14th mornin' – flat calm, zero wind, and a solid 6ft of swell. Glassy perfection. If the banks are right, this will be a gem.

From Tuesday the 15th onwards, it's a slow fade. The swell drops back to the 4ft to 4ft range and the wind is mostly cross or cross-on. The mornin' of Saturday the 19th might offer a clean-ish window, but it's small. By Monday the 21st, we're left with small, glassy 4ft surf – a nice way to end the run but nothin' to get amped about.

So, the takeaway: If you've got a free mornin', Thursday the 10th is your best bet for some proper, clean waves. Monday the 14th mornin' is the other absolute standout with pure glass. The rest is mostly small and average, with a few clean windows mixed in.
