The Goat’s Surf Forecast
Surf forecast issued Thursday 11 December 2025: Seven day outlook for Sydney
Ker-ikey it’s hard to keep up with this weather…31 one day … 23 the next. TG is having a terrible time picking out his clothes for each day, which is particularly strange as he’s a goat!
The weather outlook is for more changes this week.
It would be boring if the weather were constantly the same. You know… sunny, pleasantly warm, light offshore breeze .. Hmm
And the surf will be somewhat changeable too … Smaller to medium scale when it’s nice, and larger when it’s not.
Friday: in the 1-2 metre range with onshore winds
Saturday: similar
Sunday: around 1ish metres or so from North East
Monday: an overnight southerly change will start to push it up at places open to dead South swell – maybe 1-2, 2-2+ metres dead South with wind behind it
Tuesday: dittoish South East
Wednesday: in the 1-2 metre range dead South
Thursday: going down in the 1-2 metre range dead South
Stay flexible, adaptable, optimistic, and seize the moment when you see the opportunity….while TG is trying to work out if he should wear shorts and a T shirt with thongs, or jeans and a T shirt with shoes and socks. Keeps him busy for hours.
Keep smiling.
TG.
