The Lowdown
Hey, Rusty here. Let’s break down the next couple weeks at Temples.
Don’t expect much to start. We’ve got a steady offshore wind out of the ESE to SE the whole time, which means the ocean’s gonna look like glass. But the surf is mostly small, around 3 to 5ft for the first week, and the reports keep saying it’s “marginal.” The energy’s there—we’re seeing moderate to strong readings (between 894 and 1207 for the combined energy)—but the waves just aren’t coming together for a proper session. Water temp is about normal for the season.
Things finally wake up on Monday, July 20th. The swell jumps to 7ft out of the SSW, with a period of 17 seconds. That’s a deep ocean groundswell, and the energy reading hits 2678—that’s strong. This is a serious wave. The long period will make it stand up and suck hard, which is perfect for this reef and point, but it’s too big for anyone but experts. The wind is a moderate offshore breeze, so the face will be clean. Monday morning is your best shot of the whole forecast.
The next highlight is Saturday, July 25th in the afternoon. Swell drops to a friendlier 4ft from the SSW, still with a nice 15-second period. The combined energy is 1052—moderate—and you’ve got a moderate offshore wind. It’s rated excellent for experienced surfers, and the tides will be good. This one is clean and punchy, a real joy.
After that, the swell gets messy with short-period windswell from the SE around the 26th, so don’t get too excited. The last few days of July bring back longer period SW swell, but the size is inconsistent and the quality stays marginal.
Bottom line: Circle Monday, July 20th morning for the biggest, best groundswell—experts only. And don’t sleep on the afternoon of Saturday, July 25th for a solid, clean session. Expect some company at the lineup on those days, because everyone knows Temples goes off when it’s clean.
Rusty.

Information about the Temples Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Temples provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Temples can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Temples 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 (Temples) 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 Temples 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.
