Alright folks, Rusty here with a look at what’s on the cards for Torquay Point over the next couple of weeks.
First up, let’s talk about the water temp. It’s sitting at 58°, which is pretty much what you’d expect for this time of year – nothing unusual there.
The opening days of July are looking a bit average, to be honest. There’s a bit of swell, but the conditions are a mixed bag. The real highlight of the whole window is shaping up for Monday the 13th of July. That morning, Torquay Point is forecast to see a massive 18 ft swell from the southwest, with a very long period of 15 seconds. The combined energy is astronomical (18,181), and with a cross-offshore WNW breeze, it’ll be clean. But listen – this is a full-on, expert-only situation. This size is way too big for anyone who isn’t seriously experienced. The wind is strong at 15 mph too, so it’s going to be a wild one.
Before that big event, there are a few decent windows. Tuesday morning the 7th is a standout for a completely different reason. The swell is a modest 4 ft, but it’s a long-period SW groundswell (17 seconds) with glassy conditions – zero wind. That’s about as clean as it gets. The energy is solid (677), making it a beautiful, clean day for an intermediate surfer.
Thursday morning the 16th also looks promising. Expect a clean 5 ft SSW swell with a 14-second period. The early light offshore wind from the NW should keep the surface smooth. Combined energy is over 1,000 (1,008), so there’s some punch. This is another good call for the capable surfer.
Keep in mind, Torquay Point can get crowded, especially when it’s good. You’ll likely be sharing the peak with a few other locals.
The rest of the forecast is a bit stop-start. There’s a stretch from the 11th through the 12th with strong offshore winds that make paddling tough, and then after the big Monday swell, things drop off. From the 17th onwards, it’s mostly small, messy, or blown out with those strong northerly winds. The period from the 18th to the 19th looks particularly poor, with strong, onshore winds creating bad conditions.
So, to sum it up: the best quality, cleanest surf is on Tuesday the 7th for a classic point session, but the most powerful, challenging day is Monday the 13th for experts only. Pick your window wisely.
