Alright, let’s get into it. Rusty here, lookin’ at the charts for the next couple of weeks around St Tugen.
Honestly, I’ve gotta be straight with you – the outlook is a bit of a bummer for the most part, but we’ve got a couple of fleeting moments to get excited about.
The next ten days are looking pretty flat and wind-battered. There’s a big gap of no real surf to get excited about right through Tuesday the 8th. The first real chance to get wet comes on Thursday the 9th of July. The swell bumps up a touch to 3ft from the WNW, with a 10-second period. The energy is moderate at 132. The real treat that morning is the NE offshore wind at 9 mph, keeping things clean. It’s the best the whole run has to offer, but it’s still just surfable, not pumping. The water is sitting at 64°, so about a degree warmer than average for the time of year – nothing wild, but pleasant enough.
Friday the 10th also has a similar window in the morning – again 3ft from the WNW, with glassy conditions from a light NE breeze. The energy is a touch stronger at 139. It’s still a small wave, best for a longboard or a funboard. After that, the wind swings around and gets nasty, and the swell drops off a cliff.
From Saturday the 11th onwards, the swell just fades away. Even though you’ll see clean offshore winds from the NE on the 11th, the swell is tiny (3ft) and the period is dropping. By Sunday the 12th, it’s ankle-biters. The combined energy dips to just 26 (weak) and then 14 (very weak). The waves are gone for the next week, with only a minor bump in height on the 16th, but the period is a shocking 4 seconds – that’s just wind-chop.
The only other standout on the horizon is Wednesday the 22nd of July. In the afternoon, the swell jumps up to 4ft from the WSW, but it’s a short period of 6 seconds. The energy is moderate at 175, but the wind is onshore from the SSW at 16 mph. That’s going to be a messy, blown-out shoredump. For a spot like St Tugen, which is an exposed beach break, this setup looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing. The waves will be too lumpy and onshore for a clean ride.
So, in short: mark your calendar for Thursday the 9th and Friday the 10th in the morning. That’s your window. The rest is a long, flat spell.
Rusty.

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.
