Tora Point Surf Forecast and Surf Report

G’day, Rusty here. Lookin’ at this 16-day window for Tora Point, and I gotta say, it starts off a bit rough with a whole lotta nothin’ before we get to the real good stuff. The first few days are just a write-off, with strong winds and messy conditions, so don’t even think about paddling out until we hit the second week.

The water temp is sittin’ at a healthy 54°, which is pretty much what you’d expect for this time of year – no surprises there.

Now, the first real standout is gonna be the morning of Friday the 11th. We’ve got a solid 10ft SSW groundswell pumping in, with a period of 10 seconds, and the combined energy is ripping at 1883 (moderate to strong). That’s a fair bit of juice. But the real story is the wind: glassy, mate. Dead flat. That swell’s gonna be groomed to perfection at this exposed point break. You’ll be lookin’ at big, clean walls, but at 10ft, this is strictly for experienced surfers. The direction is straight out of the SSE, which is smack-bang in the optimum zone for Tora Point, so the lines are gonna be long and delicious. This is the top pick of the whole period.

Then the next day, Saturday the 12th, the morning session is another beauty. Swell drops a bit to a still-chunky 6ft from the S, period 9 seconds, with combined energy of 651 (moderate). And again, glassy winds. It’s not as big as Friday, but it’ll be super clean and fun for a wider range of surfers, though the 6ft is still hefty for beginners. The afternoon cleans up well too, but a light cross-on breeze gets in the way a touch.

The end of the run on Tuesday the 15th afternoon is also worth a mention. 6ft S swell, 9 seconds, combined energy 575 (moderate). Calm winds, glassy. It’s another clean, punchy option to finish on a high note.

Don’t bother with the first week – it’s a total dud. The second week is where it’s at, with Friday the 11th morning being the absolute standout. Keep an eye on that long-range call; the glass-off is a gift.

Rusty.
