Alright groms, Rusty here with a look at the next couple of weeks at Tip Beach.
We’re gonna have a bit of a slow start, but once the swell shows up, there’s some proper waves on the menu. The energy is gonna be all over the place, but a couple of days really stand out.
On Wednesday the 8th, we get a solid 6 ft southeast swell with a combined energy reading of 666. The wind is a messy cross-off though, so it’s not gonna be perfect. The real standout is Sunday afternoon the 12th. A clean 7 ft southwest swell rolls in with a decent period and an energy of 567. The wind goes offshore, glassy clean – that’s the session to circle on your calendar for the first week. Perfect for an intermediate surfer to have a ball.
It goes flat mid-week, but Wednesday the 15th morning is a monster. A 8 ft southwest swell slams in with a massive 1086 energy reading. That’s serious, powerful surf, but the wind is a stiff 30 km/h cross-off, making it heavy and raw – experts only, this ain’t a beginner’s wave. After that, the second week falls off a cliff into tiny, weak waves from the 18th onward. There’s a small window on Friday the 17th morning with a 4 ft glassy south swell (11-second period) giving a few clean lines, but energy is low at 336.
So, bottom line: don’t miss that Sunday the 12th afternoon for the best mix of size and clean breeze. If you’re a hard charger, the 15th morning is your challenge. Otherwise, the second week is a write-off.
Rusty out.

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