Toquay Reef Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright, Rusty here, and I've got the goods for our local stretch. Let’s talk about what’s coming.

Alright, listen up, crew. The next few weeks are all about one spot: Toquay Reef. This isn't a week for roaming around; it's a week for knowing where you're sitting. Consistency is high here, which is a real blessing. The water temp feels pretty much what you'd expect for this time of year, nothing weird going on there.

Now, don't get too excited for the first few days. Friday morning, July 10th, will see a tidy 3ft SW groundswell with a long 15-second period. The energy is moderate (421) and with a light northerly breeze keeping it clean, it's a nice little warm-up. But the afternoon drops off quick, and Saturday is a complete write-off with strong winds.

Then things get interesting. Sunday morning, July 12th, the swell picks up to 5ft from the SW, pushed by a strong offshore wind. The energy is ramping up (753). But wait for Sunday afternoon – that’s when it gets heavy. We’re looking at a massive 15ft SW swell with huge energy (8185). This is an expert-only situation. The wind is favorable, but this reef is going to be shutting down with that much power. It's too big for almost everyone.

Monday the 13th is still big and powerful, with a 6ft to 7ft SW groundswell and fresh offshore winds. The energy is strong (over 2000). This is muscular, experienced surfer territory.

Alright, here’s the standout. The absolute gem of the window, in my opinion, is Wednesday, July 15th. We get a solid 6ft SSW groundswell with a 15-second period. Combined energy is pumped (1565), but the real magic is the light, clean offshore wind from the WNW. This will set the reef up beautifully. Morning and afternoon both look firing. This is the day to point your car at Toquay Reef.

Thursday the 16th offers a real treat for the soul – a glassy morning and afternoon with a 4ft to 4ft SW swell. It won’t be the biggest, but the conditions will be dreamy.

We get another good pulse on Friday the 17th with more 5ft SW groundswell before it slowly winds down over the weekend into small, weak surf. There's a real lull from late in the week until the following Wednesday.

Looking way ahead to July 23rd, we’ve got another promising day with 5ft SW groundswell and clean offshore winds – solid all day.

But keep an eye on Thursday, July 24th. There’s a massive 13ft SW swell forecast. That’s a lot of water moving around (7597 energy). The morning might be messy, but the afternoon sees a moderate offshore wind, dropping it to a still-chunky 5ft. For the absolute best of the best right now, lock in Wednesday, July 15th. That’s the day your instincts have been waiting for.

Stay safe out there.
