Alright folks, Rusty here. Let me level with you—this stretch ahead is a tough one. Over the next sixteen days, there's barely a whisper of proper surf to get excited about. We're looking at a long, flat run with only the tiniest pulses of energy. There's a gap of several days right from the start with nothing worth paddling out for, and honestly, that pattern continues right through.
The only spot on the radar is Woodlands Beach. It's an inconsistent break, and this outlook shows why. From Sunday the 5th right through to Monday the 20th of July, it's just one poor surf condition after another. The swell heights are tiny, maxing out at a meagre 1.0ft on the morning of Thursday the 9th, pushing from the NE with an 11-second period. The combined wave energy that day is weak, only 18. It's clean with a fresh offshore breeze from the east, but that swell is just too small to get excited about. Periods do climb into the 11–12 second range on a few days like Wednesday the 8th and Monday the 13th, which suggests some groundswell character, but the size is absent.
There's no standout here. The biggest swell rumble is that 1.0ft on the 9th, but even that is only for experts in patience. The winds are consistently cross-off or offshore, so if you're desperate for afloat, you'll find clean, glassy conditions but nothing to push you in. For the occasional 0.6–0.7ft bump with clean offshore wind, like on Tuesday the 14th or Sunday the 12th, it might be worth a stretch if you're a longboarder who loves a challenge. But honestly, this setup looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing on most days, with the strong breezes and tiny waves.
Water temps are about average for the time of year, so no shock there. The whole run is a flat spell. Forecasts can change, but as it stands, don't hold your breath.
Stay patient,
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.
