The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on the menu for the next couple of weeks.
Right off the bat, we’ve got a bit of a slow start. The early part of the week is looking pretty ordinary, with only small, average waves and a cross-off breeze making things messy. The water’s at a fairly normal 57°F for this time of year, nothing to write home about.
Things start to get interesting on Thursday, August 7th. The wind swings light and variable, and on Friday, August 8th, we even get a glassy spell with zero wind. That’s a big positive. The swell is still modest, around 3ft to 4ft from the SW, but with those clean conditions, it’s your best bet for a fun session early on. The energy is moderate (511 and 523), so it’s not a powerhouse, but it’ll be rideable.
Now, the real standouts are the Monday and Tuesday of the following week. August 10th and 11th are looking like the pick of the bunch. On Monday, we’ve got a solid 7ft to 8ft SW groundswell with a very long period of 16 to 17 seconds. That’s a lot of energy heading our way (2531 and 3403). The wind is glassy or light northerly, meaning clean, lined-up waves. This is serious, expert-level stuff. This is good for experienced surfers only. Tuesday is still solid at 6ft, but the wind is a bit stronger, so Monday is the clear winner.
The second week, from around August 12th, sees a lot of energy, but the wind turns onshore or cross-shore more often, making it messy. There’s a big push of swell on August 14th and 15th, with 16ft and 12ft, but the wind is all over the place. It’s big, powerful, and likely pretty chopped up - more of a spectacle than a great surf.
The best bet for the average surfer? Stick with the clean, glassy day on Friday, August 7th. For the experienced crew, the absolute standout is Monday, August 10th, with that powerful, glassy SW groundswell.
Rusty, signing off.

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