The Lowdown
Right, grab a seat and let’s see what’s happening around here. I'm Rusty, and I’ve gotta tell you, this next stretch is looking pretty grim. There’s not a single decent wave on the cards for the full 16 days. We’re looking at a big fat zero on the surf front.
The only spot in the game is Tamaris, a reef break that’s pretty beginner-friendly. But honestly, it’s just not doing anything. The water is sitting at a very unusual 79°, which is 7° warmer than normal for this time of year – that’s some weirdly warm water.
We start off with a blank run. From Friday the 24th of July, right through to the end of the forecast on Saturday the 8th of August, it’s all “poor surf conditions.” We’re talking flat spells, tiny windswell, and messy cross-on winds. There’s a moment on Sunday the 26th of July where you get a bit of a 5 ft swell from the west, but it’s a 6-second period windswell with a cross-off shore wind, and the combined energy is a weak 193. That’s not surfable, that’s just bumpy water. Then again on Thursday the 6th of August, a 4 ft westerly swell pops up with a 6-second period and 77 energy, but it’s under a fresh cross-off shore breeze that’s blowing 25 mph. It’s more of a kitesurfing setup than anything you’d want to paddle into.
The rest of the time, you’re looking at swells under 2 ft, short periods, and mostly cross-on or onshore winds. For a break that’s “fairly consistent” and “fairly exposed” to swell from the south, this is a really poor run. It’s not often you see a stretch this dead, but it happens. Forecasts can change, so keep an eye on it, but for now, I’d say leave the board in the car and go find something else to do.
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.
