Alright, Rusty here. Let’s break down what’s cookin’ at Topaz Street.
First thing – the water is a warm 68° right now, which is 4° above normal for July. Feels like summer came early.
The next two weeks are a bit of a tease. The first real chance to paddle out won’t be until Thursday the 9th. From Sunday the 5th through Wednesday the 8th, the swell is tiny and the wind is mostly onshore or cross-onshore, making for poor surf. The combined energy is moderate, between 251 and 513, but the wind just kills it.
Thursday morning the 9th is your first real window. The swell is 3 ft from the SSW with a long 16-second period, so it’s proper groundswell. The wind is a light cross-offshore from the SSE, which should keep the surface clean. Combined energy is 373. This is a good call for a beginner-friendly spot, but the long period can make it a bit straight at a beach/jetty setup. Still, it’s the best on offer for the first week.
Friday the 10th and Saturday the 11th mornings also look tidy. The swell drops to 2 ft from the SSW, period 15 seconds, with light cross-offshore winds. Combined energy is around 213 to 241. Clean conditions, but the swell is small. Expect crowds – it’s often busy, so get there early.
After Saturday the 11th, the surf goes flat. From Sunday the 12th through Saturday the 18th, the swell barely reaches 2 ft, and the wind is mostly onshore or cross-onshore. Combined energy drops to the 130s and 160s. It’s a real quiet spell, and the surf is poor.
Then there’s a glimmer on Sunday the 19th. The morning shows 2 ft from the SW with a 16-second period and light cross-offshore winds from the SSE. Combined energy is 204. It’s clean, but the swell is small. That’s a long-range call, so it’s promising but not certain.
The standouts are Thursday the 9th morning and Friday the 10th morning. Both have clean conditions, light offshore winds, and a touch of groundswell. Not big, but for Topaz Street, that’s as good as it gets in this window.
Rusty.

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