Torquay Point Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's coming our way for Torquay Point.

Right now, we're in a bit of a flat spell, so don't bother paddling out just yet. The week starts rough with a big, raw 8ft SSW groundswell on Sunday morning, but the onshore wind is just ruining it. The water's at 58°F which is about average for this time of year, but the conditions are messy.

Monday morning, 6th of July, is where things start to turn around. That's your first real call. The swell drops back to a clean 4ft from the SSW, with a long 14-second period, and a light NNW cross-offshore breeze will have it looking tidy. The energy is moderate (769), but the quality is there. Monday afternoon gets even better with a glassy 4ft.

Tuesday the 7th is another standout. We're looking at a glassy 4ft from the SW with a long 17-second period. The combined energy is still in the moderate range (673), but with zero wind, it's going to be pristine. This is a classic Torquay Point day—long period groundswell wrapping around the point, clean as a whistle. For experienced surfers, this is the pick of the first week.

We get a push of energy on Wednesday the 8th with a 4ft SW swell that bumps the energy up to 1446 (strong). The morning has a light cross-shore, so it'll be a bit rippled, but still workable.

The run of clean, cross-off conditions continues through Thursday, Friday, and Saturday mornings, with swell around the 2ft to 4ft mark. The energy drops off into the weak-to-moderate range, and while the waves are small, they'll be clean and fun for a longboard or a fish. Friday afternoon, 10th of July, is another glassy one.

Then we hit a lull. From about the 12th of July through to the 16th, the energy gets weak and the winds turn messy, with some strong onshore days. There's a pulse of bigger swell on the afternoon of the 16th (10ft, energy 4876), but with a fresh cross-shore and lumpy conditions, it's a kite-surfing day, not a paddle day.

The next real window opens up on the 17th of July, Friday morning. A 4ft SSW swell with a moderate offshore wind from the WNW will have the point clean again. The energy is moderate (514), and it's a solid option for the second week, though we can't be as certain this far out.

Then on Sunday the 19th of July, we see another promising pulse. The morning session is looking good: 5ft SW swell, glassy with a light northerly breeze, and the energy is strong (1112). This is your long-range standout—big enough to get the heart rate up, but clean enough to enjoy. Just keep in mind, it's two weeks away, so don't plan your life around it yet.

Sunday afternoon and Monday the 20th see the swell building to 8ft, but onshore winds start to creep back in, so the quality drops off. By Monday afternoon, you're looking at 8ft with an onshore breeze—that's big and bumpy, one for the experts only.

Overall, the best bet is Tuesday the 7th for pure quality, and Sunday the 19th as the promising long-range option. Don't forget your wetsuit—the water's hanging steady at around 58°F.

Rusty.
