Table - best surf conditions forecast for Woodlands Beach over the next 16 days.
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s get straight into it. The forecast window for our region has a real quiet start and a pretty long flat spell overall. We’re looking at 16 days of tiny, un-rideable conditions, so if you’re a paddle surfer, lock up your board for a bit.
The first glimmer of anything surfable doesn’t turn up until the morning of the 21st of July, and even then it’s barely a whisper. For the first 12 days, from now through the 20th, we’re staring at a big fat zero. The combined energy of all swells directed here stays pitifully weak, often just a few single-digit numbers (like 2 or 5). We get a tiny lift on the 21st: a bit of swell from the NE at 1.0 ft, with a period of 9 seconds and a combined energy of 14 (weak). The wind is offshore from the E at 19 mph, which is a fresh breeze, so the surface will be clean. But honestly, at that size, it’s barely a ripple. The afternoon of the 21st sees a similar bump, 1 ft from the NE with a 9-second period and combined energy of 31 (still weak). Again, cross-off wind keeps it tidy, but there’s just no power.
Now, the only break on the cards is Woodlands Beach. It’s an exposed beach break that’s inconsistent and rarely breaks properly. It’s a beginner setup, but with the swell maxing at 1 ft, even a learner would struggle to get a slide. The water temperature is about average for the time of year, nothing special there.
We get a few more mornings with offshore winds here and there, but the swell never shows up. By the 24th of July, we’re back to 0.3 ft and a combined energy of 1. Just dead. If you’re into kite surfing, this stretch might get you going, but for a paddle surfer, this is a solid 16-day gap with no real recommendations. It’s a normal blank run for this area, unfortunately. Stay patient, and check back in a week or two—forecasts can change.
Rusty.

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.
