The Lowdown
G’day, Rusty here. Let’s talk about the only spot in the mix for the next 16 days. Yo Yo’s-The Wedge is a reef break, exposed and built for a long-period SSW groundswell. This is for the advanced crew only – not a beginner’s wave. The water is 80°F, which is pretty average for this time of year.
It kicks off on Saturday, 1st August, with a clean 5ft SSW swell running at 16 seconds. That’s a nice, long period groundswell, giving the waves some real shape. The morning is light and cross, but the afternoon cleans up with a cross-off breeze. The wave energy is moderate at 1415, so there’s enough push. Sunday, 2nd August, bumps up to 7ft, still from the SSW at 16 seconds. The mornings are a bit cross, but the afternoons stay clean. Solid weekend.
Monday, 3rd August, to Wednesday, 5th August, the swell settles to 5-6ft, with the period dropping to 14-15 seconds. The wind is mostly cross-off, keeping it clean, but the energy dips a bit (around 1200-1500). Still surfable.
From Thursday, 6th August, things ramp up. The swell builds to 7-7ft, and the period goes back to 17 seconds. The energy hits 2400-2500, so more power. The cross-off breeze holds. By Friday, 7th August, we’re at 8ft with a 17-second period, and the energy is pushing 3660-3771. That’s serious water moving. The wind is a fresh 19 mph cross-off, which is clean but strong. This is experts only.
Saturday, 8th August, and Sunday, 9th August, hold the swell at 7-8ft, with energy in the 2000-3000 range. The wind stays cross-off, but it’s a fresh breeze.
Now, the standout. Monday, 10th August, the swell jumps to 12ft from the SSW, with a period of 20 seconds. That’s a very long period groundswell, and the energy reads 8863 – that’s strong to very strong. The wind is a moderate 12 mph cross-shore, so it’s a bit lumpy, but for a reef break, the long period will make the waves stand up tall and hollow. This is the best on offer. It’s pure power.
Tuesday, 11th August, the swell drops to 10ft, still with a 17-second period and energy at 5582. The afternoon cleans up with a cross-off wind. Still a very good day.
From Wednesday, 12th August, through to Sunday, 16th August, the swell slowly drops. Wednesday sees 8ft, and by Friday, 14th August, we’re down to 4ft, but with a 21-second period – that’s a very long, rolling groundswell. The energy is still decent at 2540, but the size is smaller. The final weekend, 15th and 16th August, brings back 7ft swell with 16-18 second periods and energy around 2000-2700. The wind is cross-off, so it’s clean, but the crowds are likely.
This spot is very consistent. The real highlight is Monday, 10th August, with that 12ft, 20-second groundswell. That’s a day for the books. For the rest, it’s all about the clean cross-off winds and the reliable SSW swell. Respect the reef.
Rusty.

Information about the Yo Yo's-The Wedge Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Yo Yo's-The Wedge provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Yo Yo's-The Wedge can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Yo Yo's-The Wedge 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 (Yo Yo's-The Wedge) 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 Yo Yo's-The Wedge 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.
