The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's get real about the next couple of weeks at Tamaris. Straight up, it's a tough stretch. We're looking at a long, dry spell for any kind of decent surf. The energy is just not there.
Right from the jump on Friday the 31st of July, it's a struggle. Tiny 1ft swell from the SW with a short, weak 4-second period, combined energy is a measly (3). The wind is cross-on, and it's just not doing anything. Saturday the 1st of August is even smaller, with a 0.7ft swell and wind ripping at 12 mph. Sunday the 2nd has a moment of glassy conditions in the morning on a 1ft swell, but it’s still poor. Then we hit a real dead zone – from Monday the 3rd right through to Thursday the 6th of August, there’s barely a wave to be found. Total flatness for days.
We get a slight pulse on Friday the 7th of August. The morning shows 2ft from the SW with a period of 5 seconds and the combined energy creeps up to (13). The wind is glassy early, making it clean, but the swell is just too weak to get excited about. It’s the best we’ve seen, but that’s a low bar.
After that, it’s another long gap of junk. The wind is howling - 25 mph from the NNW on Saturday the 8th, 22 mph on Sunday. The swell is almost non-existent. This is more of a kitesurfing setup for the beach than a paddle session. The rest of the week is a blur of tiny, weak swells and mostly cross-off or onshore wind. The water temp here is about average for the time of year.
So, the brutal truth: there is no standout session in this 16-day window. The best chance to get wet without hating life would be the glassy Friday morning, July 7th, for some tiny, clean ankle-biters. Everything else is a write-off.

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.
