Alright, mate. Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s coming down the line for the next couple of weeks.
We’ve got a long period of waiting ahead for the good stuff. The first recommendation for a surf doesn’t kick in until Thursday the 8th of July, and even that is a bit of a tease. So, there’s a gap of quiet until then.
Alright, the standout window is the morning of Tuesday the 14th of July at Torquay Point. That’s the big one. Swell is pumping at a solid 8 ft from the SW, with a very long period of 16 seconds. That’s groundswell, and it’s packing some serious punch. The combined energy is a massive 3638 (strong), so you’ll feel it. On top of that, we’ve got fresh offshore winds from the NW. That’s about as good as it gets for clean, lined-up waves. The water temp is sitting at 58°, which is about average for the time of year here. This is for experienced surfers only, mate – that size is too big for beginners.
Leading up to that, we’ve got a few okay sessions, but nothing to write home about. Thursday the 9th of July morning offers some clean 3 ft SW swell with a 16-second period and light cross-offshore winds from the North. Moderate energy (471), but clean. Friday the 10th has similar clean 3 ft surf on the morning session, again with light offshore winds. Sunday the 12th shows a jump in size to 6 ft from the SW, with a 13-second period and strong offshore winds – that will be a fun, clean session, though the combined energy is moderate (903). Monday the 14th is looking large but messy with 7 ft SW swell and fresh cross-offshore winds, so the quality is a bit suspect.
The back half of the outlook is quieter. The main bright spot is the afternoon of Sunday the 19th of July. We get a clean 4 ft swell from the SW with a very long 19-second period. That’s a dreamy period, and with light cross-offshore winds, it will be glassy perfection at the point. The wave energy is moderate (795), but the quality should be high. It’s a promising call, but it’s a long way out, so keep an eye on it.
The last few days, from the 20th, are mostly poor with small waves and strong winds, though the 22nd of July afternoon shows a glimmer of hope with 4 ft SW swell and clean offshore winds.
So, to sum it up: the big winner is the morning of the 14th. The late Sunday session on the 19th is a solid second choice. The rest is mostly waiting or average conditions. Stay tuned, the forecasts can always sharpen up.
Stay stoked,
Rusty.

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.
