Right, let’s have a look at what’s cookin’ for Saint-Tugen over the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, the first week is a bit of a struggle. We've got small swell hanging around, mostly under 3 ft, and the wind just won't play ball for clean surf. The water is sitting at 65°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year – not a bad thing for those early morning sessions.
The real standout in this whole 16-day window pops up on Thursday the 16th of July. Now, it's not going to be perfect, but there's some proper size on the table. Swell jumps to 5 ft to 7 ft from the SW, with moderate cross-shore wind from the NW. The energy is strong, hitting 258 to 422 (moderate to very strong), so there's plenty of push. That size is getting up there, probably best left to the experienced crew. It’s a beach-and-reef setup, so with that swell and wind, the place might actually be more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing – it’ll be a bit of a battle.
Looking into the second week, Sunday the 19th of July morning shows a glimmer of hope. Clean 3 ft swell from the WSW with a moderate offshore from the NNE – that’s the best wind we’ll see all forecast. The energy is moderate (146). It’s a small window, but if you can time it right, it could offer the cleanest waves of the whole run.
Basically, there’s no classic day on offer. The best bet is to keep an eye on that Thursday the 16th for a more powerful, albeit messy, session, and the Sunday morning for a clean but small one. The rest is mostly poor surf conditions and cross-chop.

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