The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here with a look at what’s coming up.

Right off the bat, we’ve got a proper pulse of long-period groundswell hitting Tamarin Bay. We’re talking 8ft of swell from the SW with a 16-second period – that’s a real deep-ocean energy. The combined energy is a strong 2866, so there’s plenty of grunt in the water. This is a reef break, and with that long period, it’s going to be rifling down the line. The water temp is sitting pretty average for this time of year, nothing weird going on.

Monday morning, July 27th, is the standout. The wind is glassy, absolutely dead calm, and it’s clear skies. The waves are a solid 8ft from the SW. This is epic, but it’s strictly for advanced crew. Anything over 8ft is expert territory, and we are right on the edge, so respect the size. The afternoon stays clean with a light offshore breeze. This whole day is your window.

Tuesday, July 28th, sees the swell drop a touch to 6ft, but the wind goes cross-shore. The period is still a meaty 14 seconds, but the cross-breeze will chop it up a bit. The morning and afternoon are both marginal due to that wind, so it’s a step down.

Wednesday, July 29th, is another good look. The swell is back up to 7ft from the SSW with that same long 14-second period, and the wind is a clean cross-offshore. The energy is still high at 1983. It’s not the glassy perfection of Monday, but it’s still very, very surfable for the experienced crowd. It stays clean through the afternoon as well.

Thursday, July 30th, things get tricky. The swell drops to 5ft, and the wind swings onshore and picks up to 12 mph. The quality falls away, and the afternoon gets rain showers and a lumpy cross-chop. Not one for the quiver.

Friday, July 31st, is a bit of a mixed bag. The morning is still a bit lumpy with the cross-wind, but the afternoon cleans right up. The swell hangs around 6ft from the SSW with a 16-second period, and the wind turns cross-offshore with light airs. The energy is a solid 1460. That afternoon session is a nice, clean option.

Saturday, August 1st, is a write-off. The wind goes strong at 19 mph in the afternoon with a fresh cross-shore chop. The morning is cleaner but still windy. The swell is 7ft, but the wind ruins the party. The combined energy of 2295 is solid, but the quality is gone.

From Sunday, August 2nd, onwards, the wind locks in from the east at 16 mph cross-shore, or stronger. This makes the surf lumpy and choppy. The swell holds around 5ft to 6ft for a few days, but the conditions are poor. The energy drops from 1886 on Sunday down to 509 by Tuesday, August 4th. There’s a long dry spell here, and then a smaller pulse around August 5th to 6th with 5ft swell, but the cross-wind remains, keeping it marginal at best.

Later in the outlook, around August 7th, the swell fades right down to 3ft. The wind finally goes cross-offshore in the afternoon, giving small, clean waves. Then from August 8th onward, we see tiny waves with strong onshore winds. The last week is a bust for any decent ride.

To sum it up, your absolute best bet is Monday, July 27th. It’s the cleanest, glassiest surf of the whole run, with powerful, long-period SW groundswell. It’s heavy, it’s hollow, and it’s for experts only. Wednesday, July 29th, is the next best call. After that, it’s a long wait for anything worthwhile.

Rusty.

Information about the Tamarin Bay Surf forecast

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

Tamarin Bay is 12 km (7 miles) from the city of Vacoas. If you plan a holiday in Mauritius, look for hotels and other accommodation in Vacoas. Vacoas has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
