The Lowdown
G’day, I’m Rusty, and here’s the surf outlook for Westport-The Groins.
Friday morning gets things goin’ with a clean offshore breeze from the SSW at 15 km/h, groomin’ a 2ft west swell with a long 16-second period. The water’s sittin’ at 58°, which is about average for this time of year. The combined energy’s moderate at 459, and it’s a solid session for beginners at this sheltered beach/jetty spot. Friday afternoon stays mostly clean with a cross-off wind, same swell size, but the energy drops to 427.
Saturday morning turns cross-shore—WNW 10 km/h, still 2ft of west swell, but only marginal. Saturday afternoon gets messy: NW wind ramps to 16 mph cross-onshore, kickin’ up a choppy 4ft swell with short 9-second period. Not worth paddlin’ out. Sunday’s a write-off too—cross-onshore wind all day, with a 4ft swell on Sunday afternoon that’s short-period and blown out.
Monday morning’s got a weak 2ft south-west swell with offshore wind, but it’s marginal—tide might mess with it. The rest of the week stays poor: choppy, cross-onshore winds, swell sizes from 2ft to 4ft, all short-period. Thursday 23rd July morning shows a bit of life with a 4ft west-northwest swell and clean offshore wind, but the period’s only 8 seconds, so it’s ordinary at best.
The standout is Friday 24th July morning: a tiny 2ft south-west swell but with a super-long 26-second period, clean offshore wind from the south, and the combined energy still moderate at 558. That’s a groundswell glass-off for the early crew—long lulls, but the waves will be smooth and lined up. Best on offer for the whole run. The following Saturday 25th July morning is similar—2ft south-west swell, 23-second period, clean cross-off breeze—another beauty.
From Sunday 26th July onward, it’s a dry spell: cross-onshore winds, chop, and poor conditions right through to the end of the 16 days. The swell builds a bit toward the end of July, but the wind never plays ball. Nothing for the second week worth gettin’ excited about—just a long stretch of blown-out, messy surf.
If you’re after a wave, aim for the 24th and 25th July mornings. The rest? Save your energy.
Rusty.
