Alright, Rusty here, let's have a look at what's on offer for the next couple of weeks. We’ve only got one spot on the radar, so all eyes are on Torquay Point.

The pattern is patchy. The first real sniff of surf comes Friday morning, 10 July, with a nice pulse of long-period groundswell. That 3ft swell from the SW with 15-second intervals and light north breeze has the place looking clean. The combined energy is moderate at 421, enough to get you into a few. That water temp is sitting about average for this time of year, no surprises there.

That Friday morning window is really just a fleeting taste though. Afternoon goes a bit limp, and Saturday the 11th is a write-off with fresh northerly winds and the swell dropping right out. You'll be staring at a flat churn for most of the weekend.

Sunday the 12th morning picks up with a 5ft swell, but that WSW wind is screaming at 25 mph. It’s offshore, so the face will be clean, but paddling into that will be a fight. That's kite-surfing energy, not really paddle-surfing fun, with 753 in the combined energy. Sunday afternoon gets a jump to 15ft from the WSW, but again, that wind is still stiff. The energy is massive at 8185 – big power, but it's a handful.

Monday the 13th is still pumping with a 6ft to 7ft SSW swell and fresh offshore NW winds, so the lines will be clean, but the energy is strong (up to 2961). That's a bit too much size and power for the average punter. Keep it for the experts.

The clear standout of the whole forecast is Tuesday morning, 14 July. We’ve got a solid 15ft SW groundswell with a 15-second period and moderate W winds. The combined energy is a massive 12553, so you’re looking at powerful, clean sets peeling down the point. Crowds are often there, and you can bet they’ll be out for this one. That is the session to aim for if you’ve got the skills.

Wednesday the 15th and Thursday the 16th settle a bit with 6ft to 4ft SSW swells. Thursday morning is particularly nice with glassy conditions and 4ft of clean swell. The 17th keeps it going with a 5ft SW groundswell at 16 seconds, excellent conditions.

After the 17th, the whole thing fades fast. From the 18th of July right through to the 22nd, it’s a real flat spell. Tiny swell, messy winds, hardly any energy (down to 75 on the 19th). A week-long gap where you’re better off waxing the longboard and hoping.

We do see a flicker of life again on the 23rd with clean, 5ft SW groundswell and great light offshore winds. Then the 24th Friday morning shows a big 13ft SW pulse with moderate wind, but it’s a bit of a beast again.

In short: Torquay Point has one real standout morning on Tuesday the 14th. Big, clean, powerful. If you miss that, the Friday the 10th morning is a nice warm-up, and the 23rd looks promising too, but nothing matches that big Tuesday.

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.
