The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s break down what’s coming for the next couple weeks.
The main show is at Torquay Point, and it’s a bit of a rollercoaster. The water temp is a little warmer than normal for this time of year, nothin’ crazy.
First chance to paddle out is Saturday morning, 25 July. We’re looking at a solid 12ft SW groundswell with a 12-second period, and the combined energy is a massive 4740—that’s strong. The wind is a cross-off from the WSW at 12 mph, so it’s clean but heavy. That’s well over 8ft, so it’s for experts only. Not the day for a learner.
Sunday, 26 July, the swell drops to 4ft in the morning, then the afternoon sees 4ft with a WNW offshore breeze at 6 mph. That’s light and clean, with an 11-second period. Much more friendly size for intermediates. A decent option, but not the best.
The real standout is Saturday, 1 August. The afternoon brings a 5ft SW groundswell with a 16-second period—long period, proper energy. The combined energy is 1388, moderate-strong. The wind is light from the W at 6 mph, cross-off, so it’s glassy clean. The report says excellent for experienced surfers. That’s your pick—good size, clean, and that long period will shape up nicely on the point.
Then Sunday morning, 2 August, is another beauty: 6ft SW swell with an 18-second period—very long period. Combined energy is 2199, strong. The wind is 9 mph from the W, cross-off, and clean. Again, excellent for experienced surfers. That’s a serious session.
After that, it gets a bit rough. From 3 August to 6 August, the swell hangs between 4ft and 8ft, but the wind is often cross-off or cross, and the period shortens. The 6 August has a 8ft SE swell with a short 8-second period—wind swell, not great. The 7 August has a 8ft SE swell, again short period, with a strong 25 mph N wind. That’s a mess, more for kite-surfing than paddling.
The last day on 9 August is tiny: 2ft SW groundswell with a 14-second period, light NW offshore at 6 mph. Clean, but tiny. Fine for a log.
So, the standout is Saturday afternoon, 1 August, and Sunday morning, 2 August at Torquay Point. That’s where it’s at.
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.
