The Lowdown
Alright, let’s cut to the chase. Tamaris is looking dead flat for the next couple of weeks. There’s no surf to speak of, just a whole lot of nothing.
The first glimmer comes on Saturday, July 18th, but it’s a sad little 2ft swell from the west, with a weak 6-second period and only 32 (moderate wave energy) behind it. The wind is clean, cross-offshore, but it’s just too small. The water is 77°F, which is *much warmer than normal* for this time of year—over 7° warmer.
The rest of the run is a total dud. There’s a tiny 2ft swell from the SSE on Friday, July 24th, with a 7-second period and 45 (moderate wave energy), but it’s blown out by an onshore wind. Then on Sunday, July 26th, there’s a 2ft swell from the west with a 3-second period—that’s just full-on junk.
This reef break just isn’t working. It’s a classic blank run for this spot. Don’t bother waxing up. Things can change, but right now, you’re better off finding something else to do.

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