The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here, but in feet and miles for you.
Let’s be real: the next 16 days are a total bust. There’s a big gap of nothing until around the 14th of August, and even then it’s a stretch to call it surf.
The water is 83°F, which is about average, so no weirdness there.
The only break in the game is Woodlands Beach. It’s an exposed beach break that needs a NNW swell, but we’re getting nothing like that. It’s inconsistent anyway, and this is a proper dry spell. Most of the time the swell is barely 0.7ft to 1ft, and when it does bump up to around 4ft on the 7th and 8th of August, the period is short—only 6 to 7 seconds—and the wind is a cross-offshore breeze around 18-19 mph, which just ruins it. The combined energy on those days is weak, at 152 (Friday morning) and 134 (Saturday afternoon), so not worth it.
The only tiny glimmer is the morning of the 14th of August. There’s a 0.7ft swell from the NNE, but the period is 12 seconds, which is a long period groundswell. The wind is howling offshore from the east at 28 mph, so it’ll be clean but paddling out will be a nightmare. The combined energy is only 20, so it’s weak. For an expert on a longboard or a kite surfer, maybe, but not for a regular surf.
With the swell so small and the wind so strong, this setup looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing.
A blank run like this is pretty normal for this inconsistent spot. Forecasts can change, so don’t lose all hope.
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.
