The Lowdown
Right now, there is barely any surf to talk about. The whole 16-day window is a tough stretch for Torre Bank. The first few days from Tuesday the 18th onwards have next to nothing — flat clean conditions with tiny 0.3ft to 1.0ft waves and weak combined energy (1 to 4), so you might as well leave the board in the car. The water temperature is sitting at 85°, which is much warmer than normal for this time of year, so at least a dip in the sea feels tropical, but that’s about the only positive.
By Thursday the 20th, a little bump shows up — swell heights around 3ft from the SSW with period of 6 seconds, combined energy hitting 64 (still weak). But the wind is cross-onshore from the WSW at 12 mph, making it choppy and pretty ugly. Not worth paddling out for.
Friday morning the 21st is the closest thing to a highlight here. Offshore cross-off wind from the NNW at just 3 mph, 3ft swell from the SSW, period 6 seconds, combined energy 88 (weak). It’s clean and surfable, but still very ordinary. The wave period is short, so the shape won’t have much push. Crowds are sometimes an issue here (Torre Bank, Torre-Bank), so you might have company, but honestly, this is the best you’ll get in the entire forecast.
After Friday, it drops off hard. Saturday the 22nd through to Monday the 31st is a mix of tiny 0.7ft to 3ft swells with poor winds and low energy readings — most days are under 50 for combined energy. A few glassy mornings pop up, like Sunday afternoon the 23rd with 2ft and glassy wind, but the energy is only 14 — barely a ripple.
The only other moment worth noting is Thursday afternoon the 27th — swell height hits 4ft from the east, period 6 seconds, combined energy jumps to 226 (moderate). But wind is onshore from the south at 9 mph, so it’ll be messy and hard to enjoy. That’s still not a strong recommendation for paddle surfing.
The final few days from September 1st have clean conditions but tiny swell — 1.0ft to 1ft — and strong offshore winds (28 mph on the 1st) that will groom the surface but leave nothing to ride. Honestly, for an exposed sandbar like Torre Bank, the setup looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing during these windy stretches.
Bottom line: slim pickings. Friday morning the 21st is the standout, but that’s a low bar. If you’re desperate, go then. Otherwise, give it a miss.

Information about the Torre Bank Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Torre Bank provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Torre Bank can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Torre Bank 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 (Torre Bank) 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 Torre Bank 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.
