The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you: this is a tough one. We’re looking at a 16-day window for Tamaris, and honestly, it’s a lean stretch. The surf is tiny, the swells are weak, and the whole period is marked by "poor surf conditions" across the board. There’s a gap of no real surf from now until the morning of Sunday the 26th of July, and then again after the 28th, the energy just peters out.
The only blip of interest comes around Sunday the 26th of July. The morning shows a glassy, clean surface with a little 2ft swell from the SW, but the period is a short 4 seconds – that’s windswell, not groundswell, so it’ll be weak and choppy. The combined energy is a measly (9), so don’t expect much push. The standout moment, such as it is, falls on Monday the 27th of July. The afternoon sees the biggest swell of the window: 6ft from the SE with a period of 6 seconds, giving a moderate combined energy of (185). The wind is cross-off from the WNW, keeping it clean. That’s the best you’ll get, but it’s still a short-period swell, so it’ll be a bit lumpy. At 6ft, it’s borderline for beginners, but an experienced surfer might find a few grovelly lines.
The water temperature is a whopping 80°F, which is a massive 9°F warmer than usual for the time of year – that’s very unusual, so you’ll be sweating in your wettie. The wind for the 27th is a moderate breeze, so it’s not perfect, but it’s the cleanest of the small windows.
After a couple of days with a little more size on the 27th and 28th, it drops right back to knee-high dribble. The rest of the window into August is flat, with swells barely hitting 1ft. For the second week, it’s a long, quiet stretch with no energy to speak of. This is a spot that’s inconsistent, and this run is proving it. Forecasts can change, but right now, it’s a waiting game.
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.
