The Lowdown
G’day, I’m Rusty. Let’s take a look at what’s coming up for Torquay Point.
Over the next 16 days it’s a mixed bag, but there are a few sessions that’ll fire. The best of the lot is Tuesday, 8 September in the morning – a clean 3ft SW swell with a 18-second period, light west wind blowing cross-offshore. The water is 57°, about average for the time of year. Combined swell energy is moderate (1070), and those long-period lines will wrap around the point perfectly. That’s a morning to call in sick.
Sunday, 13 September is another beauty. A clean 5ft SW swell with a 15-second period, light NE cross-offshore breeze. The energy is moderate (1088), and the conditions are glassy. A real treat.
There’s a rough patch from Monday 14 September through to Wednesday 16 September where the swell gets big but the wind turns onshore or cross-on, making it choppy and messy. For the brave, Wednesday 16 September has a 10ft SW swell with a 16-second period, but with a cross-on wind it’s gonna be a wrestle. The energy is strong (5823), so only for the experienced.
The second week looks up. Friday, 18 September is a double-header: 7ft and 6ft SW swells, both with 15-second periods and clean cross-offshore winds. Light breeze, glassy lines, combined energy of 2014 and 1659 – that’s a proper session.
Saturday, 19 September afternoon brings a 10ft SW swell with clean cross-offshore wind, combined energy of 3880 – that’s for the big-wave crew.
The standout sessions are Tuesday, 8 September morning, Sunday, 13 September morning, and Friday, 18 September. Don’t bother with the middle of the first week – it’s a washout.
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.
