The Lowdown

Alright, let's talk surf.

Truth be told, we're in for a long, flat grind at Tamaris for the bulk of this forecast. From the 16th all the way through the 28th, it is pretty much a desert out there. We’ll have some mornings with clean, offshore winds, but with no swell to speak of, it’s all just a pretty, calm ocean. A few tiny, weak bumps will show up, but nothing with any power or shape. It's going to be a period for checking your fins and doing everything else that isn't surfing. The only interesting thing is that the wind is frequently offshore, so when something does show up, it should have some clean face on it.

Now, if you're willing to wait, there's a light at the end of the tunnel. Starting on Saturday the 29th, things finally get moving. The morning has a small pulse of swell from the SSW at around 3ft, but the afternoon picks up a touch to 5ft from the SSE. It’s got a bit of energy behind it, but the period is short, so I'd expect it to be a bit lumpy and disorganized. It's enough to get wet, but don't expect any classic waves. The real glimmer of hope is Sunday afternoon the 30th. We see a big jump in all that energy, a strong 388 units, with swell coming from the SE at 6ft. That's the most size we've seen in this whole run. But, like the day before, the period is still on the short side at 8 seconds, so it could be a bit bumpy with the light cross-shore wind. That size is going to be too much for anyone just starting out, but for the average surfer, it’s a go. And then, on Monday morning, the 31st, we could be in for a treat. That SE swell is still showing a solid 5ft and, crucially, the wind goes clean and offshore. That might be the best bet of the whole window. But remember, we're over a week away, so keep those expectations in check.

Plain and simple: don't hold your breath until the last couple of days of August. The first half of this outlook is a wash. If you’re keen, keep an eye on Sunday the 30th and the morning of the 31st. There’s finally some size and the chance of a clean wave or two.

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.
