Tivives Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s coming down the line for Tivives.

The next couple of days are gonna be pretty small but clean. We’ve got a bit of a wait for anything to really get going, but there is some fun, glassy surf on the way. The water is sitting at a warm 86°F, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year – feels like a bath out there.

Saturday 25th July kicks off with a tiny 2ft swell from the SSW, but it’s glassy in the morning. The energy is moderate (402), but honestly, it’s small. By afternoon, the wind swings onshore and it gets messy. Not worth paddling out for then.

Sunday 26th looks similar – a small 2ft morning, clean with a light cross-off breeze. The afternoon gets a bit stormy though. Keep it to the early session.

Now, Monday 27th July is where it starts to get interesting. The morning is glassy with 3ft of SSW groundswell (period of 19 seconds). The energy is ramping up to moderate-strong (729). That longer period will make for some nice lines, but at a beach break it can stand up a bit straight – it’ll be better on the sets that push through.

Tuesday 28th July is a real standout. Morning glass-off, dead calm, and the swell bumps up to 3ft from the SSW (energy 674). It’s not huge, but it’s clean, consistent, and the conditions are perfect. This is your session for the week. Just watch the afternoon storms that kick in.

Wednesday 29th July still has some morning glass with 3ft of swell, but the energy starts to drop (425). Another decent early paddle before the sea breeze messes it up.

After that, from Thursday 30th July all the way through to Friday 7th August, it’s a real lull. We’re looking at a long stretch of mornings with tiny 1ft to 2ft waves, mostly glassy but just not enough push. Energy drops into the weak zone (down to 54 at times). The afternoons are consistently blown out. Unless you’re on a foamie or a longboard with a lot of patience, it’s pretty quiet.

Then we get a glimmer. Saturday 8th August picks back up with a solid 3ft S swell, glassy in the morning and the afternoon stays clean too. Energy is back into the moderate range (322-331). Afternoon sees some risk of storms, but the wind stays light. That morning session is worth a look.

Finally, Sunday 9th August has a glassy morning with 2ft of very long period S swell (17 seconds). Energy is moderate (414). That’s a grunty little swell for the size – real power behind it. Again, that long period is great for the point, but at the river mouth or beach it might be a bit straight.

So, the standout by far is Tuesday morning 28th July – that’s the one to circle. After that, Saturday 8th August morning is the next best call.

Stay frothy,
Rusty
