Alright, Rusty here again. Bottom line: from now, Sunday July 5, right through to Monday July 20, Damp has absolutely nothing worth surfing. There are a couple of tiny bumps on July 10 (0.3 feet, N, 4 sec), July 19 (0.3 ft, N, 4 sec), and July 20 (0.4 ft, ESE, 4 sec) — but those are barely ripple height, with energy so weak you could count it on one hand. The rest is flat.
Damp (sandbar, beginner, inconsistent) is the only break, and it’s often packed when there’s surf — which there isn’t. Winds are mostly cross‑offshore or offshore, so clean conditions go to waste. A long dry spell like this is pretty normal for this spot — it’s an inconsistent stretch of sand. But don’t write it off completely; weather patterns change, and the blank runs never last forever.
If you’re desperate for any action, the gusty cross‑offshore days (like July 7 with 20‑25 mph winds) might be better for kite surfing than paddle surfing.
Rusty.

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