The Lowdown
Alright mate, let’s talk Tamaris in feet and miles. The next 16 days are a real bummer – hardly anything to get the heart pumping. This is a beginner reef break that’s fairly consistent, but the forecast is a long, flat sigh. Water temp is a weird 77°F, which is much warmer than usual for this time of year.
You’re looking at a big gap from the start – no real surf until Saturday, 18 July. That’s 5 days of nothing much. Saturday morning is clean with a cross-off breeze, but no swell height listed – it’s a zero. The afternoon brings a tiny pulse: 3ft from the west with a 6-second period and weak energy (53). It’s clean, but it’s a short-period windswell, pretty average.
That Saturday afternoon is the best of a bad bunch. The swell is 3ft from the west, period 6 seconds – short, so not much power. Wind is clean and cross-off, so the surface will be nice. It’s a beginner spot, so crowds are possible, but with waves this small, it won’t be packed. Honestly, this is more of a kite-surfing setup than a paddle session if the wind cooperates.
After that, it’s a long slog. Sunday the 19th through Tuesday the 22nd is mostly flat with glassy mornings but no swell. Wednesday morning the 22nd is glassy with 1ft from the west, period 3 seconds – barely a ripple. Thursday morning the 23rd is glassy with 0.3ft from the east, period 5 seconds – again, flat.
The rest of the outlook through Tuesday the 28th is a dry spell – tiny swells, onshore winds, or nothing. For Tamaris, a blank run like this is normal sometimes. Forecasts can change, but I’d leave the board at home for now.

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.
Tamaris is 7 km (4 miles) from Lavera. If you plan a holiday in Cote d'Azur, look for hotels and other accommodation in Lavera. Lavera has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
