The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let's chew the fat on what's coming up.
Honestly, mate, it's a rough start. We're looking at a long, dry spell with nothing to get excited about. From now through to the end of July, the swell is just a ghost. Thursday the 23rd through to at least Wednesday the 30th of July are all showing poor surf conditions with barely a ripple. The wind is a solid offshore from the east, but without any swell to work with, it's just a tease. You’ll be staring at a flat ocean. There's a gap of about a week here with no real surf to recommend.
The only break on the cards is Woodlands Beach. It's an inconsistent beginner spot, and when it does work, it's exposed to a NNW swell. The water temp is about average for the time of year, nothing to write home about.
We finally see a tiny pulse of life on Saturday the 26th of July, with the morning showing a 4ft swell from the ENE and a period of 8 seconds. The combined energy is moderate (151), and with offshore winds, it would be clean. But the forecast still calls it poor surf, and with a risk of thunderstorms, it's not worth the gamble. The afternoon cleans up but the swell drops out.
The next real chance, and I'm calling it the only standout of the whole period, is on Saturday the 25th of July. The morning shows a 5ft swell from the ENE, with a period of 8 seconds and moderate energy (273). The wind is cross-offshore, so it won't be perfect, but it's the biggest bump we see. The afternoon is a bit cleaner with offshore wind and a 5ft swell. For a beginner spot like Woodlands, 5ft is pushing the limit, but it's the best we've got. It's a shame the consistency is so poor, because if it was a reliable bank, that Saturday would be a fun little session.
After that, we're back to tiny, weak pulses right through to the 7th of August. Swells are barely 1ft, periods are short, and the energy is weak (20). The winds stay offshore though, so if you're desperate for a flat-water paddle, it's glassy. But for surfing? Forget it. It's a long, blank run for this area, and it's the kind of quiet spell that's more normal than not.
Stay patient, and keep an eye on the forecasts. These quiet runs never last forever.
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.
