Table - best surf conditions forecast for Tamaris over the next 16 days.
G'day, Rusty here. Look, I've had a good look at the charts for Tamaris, and to be honest, it's a pretty grim outlook for the next 16 days. We're looking at a long stretch of near-flat conditions with no real standouts at all. The first real sign of anything surfable doesn't show up until Saturday the 18th of July, and even then, it's a bit of a stretch.
For the first week, from Friday the 10th through to Friday the 17th, it's basically a write-off. We're talking tiny waves, mostly under 1ft, with poor to no surf quality. The combined wave energy is almost non-existent, often just 1 or 2, which is weak. The wind is all over the shop, mostly onshore or cross-onshore, so the water will be messy. Saturday morning the 11th and Sunday morning the 12th have a bit of clean, light offshore wind, but with only 1ft and near-flat swell respectively, it's barely a ripple. Tuesday morning the 14th is glassy, but again, zero swell. There's a solid 10-day gap here with nothing to recommend.
Things get a little more interesting on Saturday the 18th of July. The afternoon sees a jump in the swell to 3ft from the west, with a period of 6 seconds. The combined energy bumps up to 62 (moderate). The wind is a cross-offshore breeze from the west at 22 mph, which will clean up the face. It's a bit raw with that wind, but it's the only chance for a wave all week. Keep in mind the swell direction is west, and the optimum for Tamaris is from the south, so it's not the best angle.
After that, the following week slips back into the doldrums. Sunday the 19th has clean wind but no swell. Monday the 20th has a bit of swell, 1ft to 2ft from the west, but the wind is howling at 31 mph from the north-northwest. That's a near gale, so it'll be blown out and more suited to a kite than a surfboard. The energy is only 11-12, which is weak. The rest of the week is more of the same: tiny swell, clean but strong winds, and no real quality.
The water temperature at the start of the outlook was 74°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year.
So, the honest truth is, for the next 16 days, there's nothing here that gets me excited. You'd be better off waiting for a change in the forecast. It's a tough run for Tamaris.
Rusty.

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.
