Injidup Carpark - surf spot statistics

Injidup Carpark in Western Australia is a consistent year-round surf spot with a strong dominance of ground swell, making it highly reliable for wave riders. The best months for surfing here are typically from April to September, when swell size peaks and conditions are most favorable. During this period, the mean swell size ranges from 2.7m to 3.7m, with the largest waves occurring in July (3.7m). However, wind conditions are less favorable in these months, with only 16-28% of days having good winds, meaning offshore or light winds are relatively rare. The trade-off is bigger, cleaner ground swells with more challenging wind conditions. The summer months (December to March) offer smaller swells (2.2m-2.4m) and slightly improved wind conditions (17-23% good wind days), but the swell quality remains high due to the overwhelming presence of ground swell (92-97%). Overall, intermediate to advanced surfers will find the winter period ideal for powerful waves, while summer provides more manageable conditions with occasional clean offshore days. For the best balance of swell size and wind conditions, April and May stand out, offering solid swell (2.7m-3.0m) with marginally better wind odds (24-28% good wind days).

March at Injidup Carpark delivers solid surf conditions with a dominant swell from the southwest, offering consistent wave energy. The average swell height is 2.3m with a strong 13.1s period, providing powerful, well-formed waves ideal for experienced surfers. The swell direction is primarily SW (53.3% of waves over 1.5m), ensuring good shape and size, while smaller contributions from S and SSW add variety. Wind conditions are less favorable, with only 23% of days offering ideal offshore or light winds—typically from the east to southeast—which can groom the swell into cleaner waves. However, the majority of winds come from the south to southwest, often blowing onshore at moderate speeds (10-30kph), which can create choppier conditions. Expect sizable surf with a strong SW influence, but be prepared to time sessions around wind shifts for optimal performance. The spot handles bigger days well, with 21.2% of SW swells in the 2-2.5m range and a notable 1.9% exceeding 2.5m, making March a reliable month for quality waves if you navigate the wind wisely.
