Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s coming down the line for us.
The surf window opens up Monday the 13th, but honestly, it’s a bit of a slow burn. There’s a big, clean 8ft SW groundswell running with a very long 16-second period, but the wind is howling at 22 mph. The combined energy is massive at (2481), but it’s blown out by the fresh breeze. Monday afternoon is much the same, just a bit bigger. Hold off.
The real standout of the whole forecast hits us on Tuesday the 14th afternoon. Torquay Point is going to be absolutely pumping. We’re looking at a solid 13ft of SW swell, with a period of 15 seconds. The combined energy rockets up to a massive (9993). This is big, powerful groundswell and it’s going to be a freight train at the Point. The wind is a moderate 12 mph cross-off, keeping it clean. This is for the experienced crew only – over 8ft is expert territory. The water temp is about average for mid-July, so a 4/3mm steamer is the call.
The next few days settle down. Wednesday the 15th sees a drop to 6ft with a lighter breeze, but it’s a cross-off and the quality is only marginal. The following morning, Thursday the 16th, is a solid little runner with a 6ft SSW swell and a 15-second period, so there’s good energy (1368). The morning is a light breeze and clean, but the wind swings onshore in the afternoon, so get on it early.
Friday the 17th is another good morning session. A 5ft SW groundswell with a 16-second period, combined energy of (1346), and a light cross-off breeze. Clean lines on offer. By the weekend, we’re winding down. Saturday the 18th morning is a fun 3ft, but by Sunday it’s small and weak.
There’s a bit of a flat spell early next week, but keep an eye on the 21st of July. Tuesday morning we get a 4ft SW swell, but the real story is the glassy conditions. Dead calm, zero wind, and a clean 4ft. It’s not huge, but it’ll be a beautiful, relaxing session. The following Saturday the 25th is also looking promising again with a 4ft SW swell, offshore NW wind, and clean conditions. The afternoon of the 25th even goes glassy again. Those are two nice little windows to pencil in.
After that, the energy fades out towards the end of the window. The 27th and 28th are small with onshore winds, so the kite surfers might get a look in, but it’s not much for a paddle board.
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.

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.
