The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you – this is a pretty quiet stretch for Woodlands Beach.
We’re looking at a long, drawn-out gap with no real surf on offer to start. From now, right through the rest of July and into the first few days of August, there’s nothing worth paddling out for. The energy is either flat or just tiny dribbles, and the wind is hammering from the east at 18 to 22 mph, making a mess of anything that tries to show up. There’s a little bit of activity on the 24th and 25th – swell around 4 ft to 5 ft from the ENE, but with that stiff cross-off breeze, it’s just poor conditions. Not worth the wax.
The first real, albeit tiny, sign of life shows up on Sunday afternoon, 26 July. We get a 3 ft ENE swell, period a short 8 seconds, and the wind finally swings offshore from the ESE at 15 mph. The combined energy is weak (127), so it’s small and a bit messy, but it’s surfable if you’re desperate. After that, it’s back to near-zero for days.
We get a window of clean, offshore easterly winds on the 28th morning, but the swell is effectively zero. Then on the 31st of July, Friday afternoon, there’s a spike: 5 ft from the ENE, period 8 seconds, energy climbing to moderate (300). But the wind is cross-off, and the surf report still calls it poor. Frustrating.
The last week of the forecast is a total dud. Tiny 0.3 ft to 1 ft pulses from the north and northeast, mostly with periods under 12 seconds, and the combined energy never cracks 50. The wind is mostly offshore or cross-off, but with nothing to push, it’s a glassy flat spell. Water temperature is sitting at a warm 84°, about 1° above the norm for this time of year – nice for a swim, not for a wave.
There’s just no standout in this 16-day window. The only break on the cards is Woodlands Beach, and it’s an inconsistent, exposed beach break that needs a solid NNW swell to fire. We’re getting the opposite direction and not enough grunt. This kind of blank run happens here. Don’t hold your breath.

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