The Lowdown
G'day, Rusty here. Let's talk about what's heading for Torquay Point over the next couple of weeks.
It's a slow start, so don't bother paddling out on Monday the 7th September. You're looking at a messy 2ft SSW windswell with a 25 km/h cross-on wind. The water temp is about average for this time of year at 57°F, so nothing wild there.
Tuesday the 8th is the day to get keen. The morning brings a clean 3ft SW groundswell with a long 18-second period, and a light 15 km/h cross-off wind from the west. The energy is strong at 1070. It's going to be a ripper. The afternoon gets a bit lumpy with a cross-shore breeze, so make sure you're in the water early.
Wednesday the 9th and Thursday the 10th see the swell jumping to 8ft and 10ft, but the wind swings cross-shore at 30 km/h, making it a lumpy, powerful mess. The energy is huge (4832 and 5942), but the conditions are marginal. This is for the experts only, and it's not going to be pretty.
The next real standout is Saturday the 12th September. A clean 5ft SW groundswell (15-second period) with a light 10 km/h offshore wind from the northwest in the morning. The energy is a solid 1201. The afternoon stays clean with a slight cross-off breeze. This is a classic Torquay morning, and it's going to be good.
Sunday the 13th is smaller at 4ft, but still clean. A fun day for the longboard.
The following week is quiet until Thursday the 17th. The morning offers a clean 6ft SSW groundswell with a 15 km/h cross-off breeze from the north. The energy is a strong 1749, and it looks promising for a mid-week session.
The big one is way out on Saturday the 19th. The afternoon delivers a massive 12ft SW groundswell with a 15-second period, and the wind is a clean 15 km/h cross-off from the WNW. The combined energy is an incredible 6721. This is a huge, clean, powerful set-up, but strictly for the experienced crew. It's a long way off, so keep an eye on it.
Monday the 21st September also looks solid, with a morning of 7ft SW groundswell (16 seconds) and a light offshore wind. The energy is 2670, and it's rated excellent for experienced surfers. The afternoon pumps up to 10ft, but the wind goes light cross-on, so stick to the morning.
Torquay Point is a consistent point break that handles a good SW swell, but the crowds can be a problem on the good days. The real standouts are Tuesday the 8th morning and Saturday the 12th, with the massive Saturday the 19th afternoon being the long-range keeper.

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.
