The Lowdown

Alright, Rusty here. Let’s get straight into it.

Look, I’ll be honest with you: the next week and a half is a proper write-off for St Tugen. You’re looking at a long stretch of nothing surfable from Tuesday the 28th of July right through to the 5th of August. That’s over a week of tiny, weak, and messy conditions. The swell is small, the period is short, and the winds are all over the place – mostly cross, onshore, or just enough to put a chop on it. The combined energy stays under the 100 mark for most of that, which is barely a ripple. Not worth paddling out for.

There’s a flicker of hope on Thursday the 6th of August. Swell bumps up to 6ft from the W, with a lousy 7-second period, but the wind swings NNW cross-off. That’s clean. The combined energy hits 354 (moderate). It’s still a bit of a mess though – the short period means it’ll be lumpy and won’t hold shape well. Might be worth a look if you’re desperate, but it’s not a standout.

Now, the real standout is Friday the 7th of August. That’s the one. Early morning, clear skies, a light 5 mi/h breeze from the ENE – that’s cross-off and glassy. The swell is solid at 6ft from the WNW, with a period of 8 seconds. The combined energy is strong at 408. This is the best it’s gonna get. Clean, decent size, and that light offshore wind will make it proper fun. St Tugen is a fairly consistent spot, exposed to the WSW, so this WNW swell should wrap in nicely. If you’ve got the morning free, that’s your session. After that, the wind goes onshore and the quality drops fast.

After the 7th, it gets messy again. Swell stays big through the weekend – 8ft and 7ft – but with strong onshore winds and lumpy conditions, it’s just a washing machine. That size is only for the experts, and even then, the wind will ruin it. By the 11th of August, there’s a chance of a clean cross-off again in the afternoon, with 4ft from the NW, but it’s marginal and the consistency is a question mark.

So, bottom line: the first week is a write-off. Friday the 7th of August is your window. It’s not huge, but it’s clean and fun. Make the most of it.

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.
