G’day, Rusty here. Gotta be straight with you – this 16-day window is a tough one for Wooden Jetties. We’re looking at a real flat spell with hardly any rideable surf, and what little pops up is mostly messy.

The whole first week is pretty much a write-off. Swell is tiny and short-period, with most days seeing waves under 2 ft. The combined energy is low – down around 11 to 81 – just not enough push for a decent wave. Winds are almost constantly cross or cross-onshore, chopping up the surface. There’s a glimmer on Saturday afternoon, 4th July, with glassy conditions and a 1.0 ft SE swell, but it’s just too small to get excited about.

Heading into the second week, things don’t improve much. Swell stays marginal, mostly under 3 ft, with poor surf conditions flagged for every session. The only slight bright spot is Sunday afternoon, 11th July, when we finally get offshore winds (WNW at 6 mph) and a clean-looking 3 ft S swell. The combined energy nudges up to 80 – still weak, but with clean lines, there might be a knee-high roller to yourself. Crowds are only “sometimes” an issue here, and the break is fairly consistent for this area, so you could score a sneaky solo session.

Beyond that, the rest of the month looks flat and lumpy, with more cross-onshore winds and tiny waves. Given the overall weakness of the swell, the short periods, and the poor quality, there’s nothing here that’s really worth paddling out for. If you’re desperate, that Sunday 11th July afternoon is the only real chance for a clean wave, but don’t expect much.

Rusty.

Information about the Wooden Jetties Surf forecast

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

Wooden Jetties is 20 km (12 miles) from Atlantic City. If you plan a vacation in New Jersey, look for hotels and other accommodation in Atlantic City. Atlantic City has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
