Alright folks, Rusty here, and I won't lie to you – the next couple of weeks at Topaz Street are looking more like a lake than an ocean. The forecast runs from now through the 25th of July, and the first week is a washout. Tiny waves and junk wind.
The water temp is about 69°F, which is way warmer than usual for this time, so at least a swim feels good.
Your first real chance to get wet doesn't come until Saturday the 18th of July. Saturday morning we see a tiny 2ft pulse from the SW, but with a very long 18-second period. That’s a groundswell, but for a jetty break like Topaz Street (Topaz-Street), that long period can make the waves run together and close out. The wind is a light cross-shore, so the surface will be okay. The energy is moderate, hitting 307.
The one morning I’d circle on your calendar is Monday the 20th of July. Same tiny 2ft SW swell, decent 16-second period, but the wind is the hero here. A light cross-offshore breeze from the SSE will groom the waves into clean, peeling lines. No chop, just smooth. The energy is still solid at 264. It’s not huge, but for a clean beach break, that’s about as good as it gets right now.
Tuesday the 21st bumps up to about 2ft from the SSW, but the wind gets messy. Then Wednesday the 22nd morning is another clean window with a light offshore breeze and 2ft swell, so that’s your second chance.
Don’t even bother in the afternoons. The onshore wind comes up and turns everything to chop. For beginners, the size never gets dangerous (always under 5ft), but the quality just isn’t there. Morning sessions only. The standout is that Monday the 20th – go then or spend a lot of time sitting on the sand.
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.
