Alright, this is Rusty. Let’s have a look at what’s cooking for the next couple of weeks.
Overall, it’s a pretty quiet run for Westport-The Cove. We’ve got a few windows that might be worth a paddle, but there’s a lot of chop and cross-on wind to work around. The first real chance to get wet comes on Saturday the 11th of July in the morning. That’s the standout of the whole forecast, so don’t sleep on it.
Saturday morning the 11th of July is where it’s at. We’ve got a 3.6ft swell from the WNW, period around 10 seconds, and the wind goes glassy – dead calm, no ripples on the water. It doesn’t get much cleaner than that. The combined wave energy is moderate at 466. For a beginner-friendly beach/jetty break, this is about as good as it gets. It’s fairly consistent and the crowds are only sometimes around, so you should have some room. The water temp is about average for the time of year, nothing crazy.
After that, it gets rougher. Saturday afternoon and Sunday the 12th have cross-on breezes picking up, making it choppy. Sunday morning might be worth a look with 3ft from the WNW and a light cross-on wind, but it’s marginal and the score reflects that. From Monday the 13th through to the end of the first week, it’s mostly poor with moderate breezes and messy conditions. Swells between 1.3ft and 3.3ft, but all with onshore chop.
The second week is mostly more of the same: persistent cross-on winds, mostly from the NW, and swell sizes hovering between 3.3ft and 5.2ft. There are a couple of mornings around the 18th and 19th of July where the wind goes light cross-shore and the swell bumps up to 4.6ft–5.2ft from the WNW, but the period drops to 8 seconds, so it’s a bit short and bumpy. The wave energy is moderate to strong (552 to 591), but the conditions are only marginal. By the 21st of July, we see 5.2ft from the WNW with light cross-shore wind again, but it’s still just a "maybe." After that, the trend is smaller, weaker, and choppier through to the 25th.
Honestly, if you want clean waves without fighting the wind, you’ve got one solid window: Saturday morning the 11th of July. After that, it’s a waiting game.

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 Westport-The Cove 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.
