Alright, Rusty here. Look, I'm gonna be straight with you – this 16-day window for Whitesand Bay is pretty bleak. The finder shows no proper surf on offer, and that's unusual for a spot that's usually fairly consistent. Water temp is sitting at 60.6°F, which is about 1.8°F above normal for this time of year – nothing crazy but worth knowing if you're finicky about warmth.
Starting off Monday 6th July, it's cross-on SW wind at 16 mph with a tiny 2.3 ft swell from WSW – poor surf, choppy. That sets the tone. Tuesday 7th brings even smaller waves, 1.0 ft, with light cross-on wind – still poor. Wednesday 8th morning goes glassy but only 1.0 ft, so flat really. Thursday 9th glassy again, 0.7 ft – not a ripple worth paddling for. The swell energy is weak throughout, usually in the teens or twenties.
There's a stretch of clean conditions from Friday 10th to Monday 13th, but the swell stays pathetic – 1.3 ft max, mostly 0.3-1.0 ft. The wind is cross-off from NNE, which would be nice if there was any wave. Periods are short except for a few long-period small ones (17-21s) but with no height they're useless.
Thursday 16th July morning has a gentle offshore from ENE, but again only 0.7
Short Range ForecastMostly dry. Warm (max 20°C on Tue night, min 15°C on Mon night). Wind will be generally light. | Days 5-7 Weather SummaryMostly dry.

Information about the Whitesand Bay Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Whitesand Bay provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Whitesand Bay can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Whitesand Bay 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 (Whitesand Bay) 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 Whitesand Bay 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.
