G’day, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on offer for Tamarin Bay over the next couple of weeks.

Straight up, the first week is a bit of a mixed bag. We’ve got a long-period, south-southwest groundswell arriving, but the wind is a thorn in our side for most of it. The wave energy is moderate early on, around 370, but it’s not doing us any favours with a cross-shore breeze and poor surf. Friday the 10th and Saturday the 11th are pretty average, with the swell building from 2 ft to 6 ft but the cross-shore winds keeping things choppy and messy. The energy jumps up to moderate-to-strong (1155 to 1222), but it’s just not clean.

Sunday the 12th sees the swell push over 8 ft, but the wind turns cross-onshore and it’s choppy. Not the day to get excited. The energy is strong (2563), but the quality is poor.

Then, Monday the 13th – that’s where things start to look up. We get a clean window with light cross-offshore winds, the swell is 7 ft from the SSW, period 14 seconds, and the energy is moderate-strong (1667). This is the first real standout for experienced surfers. The water temperature is about average for this time of year, so no need to stress about a wetsuit. Conditions are clean, and it’s a reef break that loves a long-period groundswell like this. The crowd factor is listed as “often,” so expect company, but it’ll be worth it.

Tuesday the 14th offers a smaller 6 ft swell, still clean but with stronger winds, so it’s not as good as Monday. Wednesday through Friday the 16th is a write-off – winds pick up, swell drops, and the energy falls away. Friday the 17th shows a tiny bump of 2 ft with offshore wind, but it’s barely surfable.

Now, the real highlight is Sunday the 19th of July, over a week away. The forecast shows a solid 10 ft S swell with a 16-second period, light cross-offshore winds, and clean conditions. The energy is very strong (4411). This is a big one, but it’s also only for experts – over 8 ft, it’s a heavy day out. The swells are long-period, so at a reef break like Tamarin Bay, it could be epic, but it’ll be powerful. Keep an eye on this one, though it’s a long-range call so less certain.

The week after that (July 20-25) sees the swell drop back down, with clean conditions but diminishing size, from 7 ft down to 2 ft by the end. Energy fades from moderate (2647) to weak (58). Nothing to paddle out for after the 20th.

So, the standout is Monday the 13th for a solid, clean session, and the one to watch is Sunday the 19th for a big, expert-only swell. The rest of the period is a lot of waiting.

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.
