Tip Beach Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright, Rusty here. Let's get into the outlook for Tip Beach.

We've got a bit of a mixed bag, with some decent windows but nothing that's going to have you clearing your calendar for weeks. The first real chance for a surf isn't until Monday the 10th.

Look, Monday morning the 10th looks like the standout of the whole run. We've got a clean 6.2 ft NE groundswell rolling in with a solid 10-second period, and the wind is a light cross-off. The combined energy is pumping at 690 (moderate), and with the water temp sitting at a pretty normal 58.6°, it's all set. That morning session looks like the best on offer.

Tuesday the 11th morning has a bigger push of swell, 8.2 ft from the SW with a 9-second period and clean cross-off winds. The combined energy is a strong 1065, but that size starts pushing into expert territory. It's a bit of a beast, so if you're not solid, give it a miss.

Things start to drop off from Wednesday the 12th onward. We get a brief window Wednesday morning with a tiny 2 ft ENE swell and proper offshore wind, but it's weak. After that, it's mostly small, crummy, and cross-off until about the 14th, with combined energy dropping below 200 (weak).

From the 16th onward, it gets pretty flat with a lot of poor surf conditions and cross-onshore winds. There's a bit of a pulse around the 22nd and 23rd, with a 6.2 ft NE swell on the Saturday afternoon, but the wind is cross-shore and the conditions are rated poor. The 24th Monday afternoon shows a 6.6 ft SW swell with good cross-off wind and a combined energy of 706 (moderate), but that's a long way out and less certain.

So to wrap it up, Monday the 10th morning is your pick. Get on it early, because after that, we're looking at a lot of waiting around. The second week looks pretty average overall.
