The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty again with the imperial version.
Straight up – Woodlands Beach is looking completely flat or junk for the next 16 days. No good surf at all, not a single session worth paddling out. The scores are all zero, and every wave comment says "poor surf conditions." That's the reality.
Woodlands Beach is a beginner spot that's inconsistent and rarely breaks, so a dead run like this is actually pretty typical for the area. Water temp is 82°F, right about average for this time of year. The wind is mostly a fresh easterly breeze blowing offshore or cross-offshore – it'd keep things clean if there was any swell, but there just isn't.
From Tuesday 14th through Friday 17th, we've got tiny waves of 0.3ft to 1.0ft from the north or north-northeast, with short periods around 8 to 10 seconds. The combined wave energy is weak – barely 12 on Tuesday morning. It's a dribble, not a surf.
There's a brief pulse on Saturday 24th afternoon – a 4ft swell from the east-northeast with an 8-second period and energy of 229 – that's moderate energy. But the wave comment still says "poor surf conditions" and the score is zero. The swell direction is east-northeast, while the optimum for Woodlands is north-northwest, so it's just not hitting right. That size is still okay for beginners, but the quality is missing.
On Wednesday 22nd morning there's a long-period 14-second groundswell from east-northeast, but only 1.0ft tall with weak energy (41). A long-period groundswell that small can't deliver, especially at a beach break where it would just close out.
The rest of the two weeks is either flat or tiny and messy. No standouts. If you've got the itch, wait for a proper swell with the right direction. As it is, leave the board on the rack.

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.
