Western Australia Surf Forecast by Craig Brokensha (issued Wednesday 18th November)

Best Days: Later Saturday, Sunday morning, early Monday

Recap

Plenty of swell continued yesterday with a reinforcing pulse of large S/SW swell across the South West but with onshore SW winds, favouring protected locations.

The swell was expected to ease quickly today, but not so much overnight, with Margs this morning only offering surf in the 3-4ft range. Perth and Mandurah still offered 2ft sets for the morning surf.

This weekend and next week (Nov 21 - 27)

Tomorrow morning will be small to tiny, but clean, with the afternoon kick in SW groundswell still looking good for the South West.

We should see Margs kick late in the day to 5-6ft by dark, and winds tend S/SE and then SE on dark. This should provide some fun options.

Perth will see the swell Sunday to 1-2ft, but inconsistent, while the South West should ease from the 5-6ft range again. Conditions look great with E/NE offshores, tending more NE through the day, while Perth looks to see a W/NW onshore developing.

The surf will continue to ease into Monday and further Tuesday with light offshore winds on the former, and then unfavourable S/SE winds on the later.

As touched on last update, a blocking high will block any major swell producing systems from impacting us through the weekend and next week, with small to tiny waves due through most of next week along with strong SE winds. Not the best combo.

At this stage there's no end in sight, but we'll have a closer look at this on Monday. Have a great weekend!
