The Lowdown
Alright folks, it’s Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you – the outlook for the next 16 days at Tamaris is a real struggle. We’re looking at a long dry spell with barely a ripple worth paddling for. The first surfable bump doesn’t show up until Tuesday the 8th of September, and even then it’s a small one.
From now until the 8th, it’s pretty much a flat spell. We’ve got tiny 0.7ft to 1.0ft slop with periods of 3 to 4 seconds. The combined swell energy is a measly 1 to 3 (weak energy), and the wave comment keeps saying “poor surf conditions.” The winds are mostly cross-off or offshore, but there’s just no swell to work with. Sunday the 6th of September morning you’ll see glassy conditions and a 1.0ft SW swell, but it’s still too weak to get excited about.
Tuesday the 8th of September afternoon is where things finally get a little interesting. The swell bumps up to 3ft from the WSW with a 6-second period, and the combined energy hits 42 (moderate). The wind is cross-off from the WNW at 15 mph, keeping it clean. This is the best the whole window has to offer, but honestly, it’s nothing to write home about.
The rest of the forecast is a repeat of tiny junky waves, strong winds, and no real power. There’s a period from the 9th to the 11th of September with fresh to strong breezes from the NW and NNW, but the swell is either missing or just a pathetic 0.7ft to 2ft. The water temperature is a notable 76°F, which is 5°F warmer than normal for this time of year – that’s much warmer than usual, so you’ll be comfortable in boardshorts at least.
Overall, the only standout, if you can call it that, is Tamaris itself on Tuesday afternoon the 8th, with the 3ft WSW swell. It’s a reef break, fairly consistent, but it’s a beginner spot with crowds sometimes. The wind is clean, but the swell is tiny and short-period. This is a day for a longboard or a foamie, and only if you’re desperate for a paddle.
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.
