Right then, let's have a look at what's on offer for Tamaris.
Honestly, it's a rough patch ahead. We're looking at a solid 16 days of nothing much to write home about. The surf just isn't there for the foreseeable future. The first week and a half is a total write-off, with tiny, weak swells and not a single wave worth paddling for. You'll be waiting a long time.
The first flicker of anything that could be called a wave doesn't show up until Monday, July 20th. Even then, it's not great. On Monday morning, we get a 4ft swell from the west, with a period of 6 seconds. That's short-period windswell, so it's going to be a bit messy. The combined energy is moderate (209), but it's paired with a fresh 19 mph cross-offshore breeze from the northwest. It'll be clean, but it's not the kind of day you'd set an alarm for. The afternoon drops off. The following Tuesday, July 21st, there's a 4ft swell from the WSW, but it's another short-period (5 seconds) windswell, and the breeze is onshore, so it's a no-go.
The real kicker is that all the conditions are flagged as "poor surf conditions" across the entire 16 days. There's no standout session, no magic window. What we do have is a lot of glassy mornings, but with no swell to push through, that's just a flat, pretty lake. For a beginner-friendly reef break like Tamaris, you need a pulse of energy, and it's just not there.
Given the lack of significant swell and the periods of strong cross-offshore winds, this setup might be more interesting for a kite surfer than a paddle surfer, especially on the 19th and 20th.
So, in short: save the petrol and keep an eye on the charts. It tends not to stay this poor for long, so forecasts can change.

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.
