Alright, Rusty here, breaking it down for you in feet, miles per hour, and Fahrenheit.
Sunset Beach Geraldron (beach and reef) is where we’re at.
Monday morning, July 6th, we’ve got a SW groundswell already hitting at 6ft with a 15-second period. The water is 68° — a bit cooler than usual. Combined energy is (1472), that’s moderate power. A light ENE cross-off breeze has the surface glassy. This is excellent for experienced surfers. By afternoon, the swell builds to 7ft, period stretches to 16 seconds, energy jumps to (2262), and wind stays light.
Tuesday morning, July 7th, is a real standout. Swell hits 8ft from the SW, period is 16 seconds, and energy is pumping at (3090). With a clean offshore breeze from the ESE, this is expert territory. Afternoon gets a bit cross-off, still clean but not as sharp.
Wednesday the 8th, the wind goes cross and the surface gets a bit lumpy. Swell holds around 6ft to 7ft.
We hit a quiet patch from Thursday through Saturday. Thursday has onshore wind, Friday is clean but small, Saturday morning is just 4ft.
Sunday, July 12th, is the one to circle. That morning brings 8ft of SW swell with a massive 19-second period. Combined energy is (5505) — very strong. Offshore wind from the east keeps it clean as a whistle. This is exceptional, expert-level surf. The long period will give the waves serious punch, but at a beach-and-reef break, expect them to stand up fast. Afternoon stays clean with a gentle offshore and 8ft.
Monday the 13th is still clean with a 6ft morning.
Mid-week settles down to smaller, cleaner surf before another solid pulse on July 21st, Tuesday morning, with a 7ft SW swell, 17-second period, and clean offshore wind. Energy at (2327). Good for the experienced crew to finish the run.
Best bet? July 12th. That’s the one.
Rusty.

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

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 Sunset Beach Geraldron 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.
