Alright, let’s look at what’s cookin’ around Saint-Tugen.
First up, don't get too excited. This stretch is pretty flat for a while. Your first real shot is Saturday morning, July 4th, at St Tugen. The swell is small, coming in around 4 ft from the west with a decent 10-second period, and the wave energy is moderate (245). The wind is light from the north, cross-offshore, and the sky’s clear so the waves will be clean and workable for an intermediate surfer. This is by far the best window we get, so don’t sleep on it.
By Saturday afternoon, wind picks up to 18 mph from the north-northwest and the swell drops to about 3 ft, energy fading quickly to 181. Not great. Sunday the 5th morning sees the swell shrink further to 2 ft from the west, with a north-northeast offshore breeze, but it’s weak – energy down to 130. You might get a tiny clean wave but it’s honestly not worth paddling out.
Through the rest of the first week and into the second, we hit a dry spell. From Tuesday the 7th through Saturday the 11th, the swell is tiny and the wind just ruins it – either too strong or onshore. That’s a gap of several days with no real recommendation. Not unusual around these parts.
On Sunday morning the 12th, a little pulse of swell at 3 ft from the west, energy moderate at 257, but the wind is onshore from the southwest with cloudy skies and rain – poor quality. Then Wednesday morning the 15th offers a bit of hope: 3 ft from the west-northwest, 145 energy, and a cross-offshore breeze from the north-northwest, keeping conditions clean. Still small, but that’s your best bet in the second week.
The standout? That’s Saturday morning, July 4th, at St Tugen. The 4 ft west swell with the clean cross-offshore wind is the only real session on the cards. It’s not big, but it’s the cleanest we’ll get. And because it’s the only game in town, you might find the crowd shows up *sometimes* – don’t be surprised if it gets a little busy.
Water temp is about normal for this time of year. Nothing strange going on.
Keep your chin up. It’ll turn around.

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.
