Tropical sea temperatures peak in the range 26 to 28°C (79 to 82°F) on around the 26th of February and are at their minimum on about the 13th of August, in the range 22 to 24°C (72 to 75°F). Year round warm sea temperatures at Tropical climb to their highest in the fourth week of February. Even then a rash vest and board shorts should be fine for surfing at any time of year. Tropical sea temperatures are always warm but dip to their minimum in the third week of August. You'll need a 2mm neoprene top or a shorty at dawn/dusk or if it's windy.
Actual sea surface water temperatures close to shore at Tropical can vary by several degrees compared with these open water averages. This is especially true after heavy rain, close to river mouths or after long periods of strong offshore winds. Offshore winds cause colder deep water to replace surface water that has been warmed by the sun. Air temperature, wind-chill and sunshine should also be considered before deciding on the kind of wetsuit needed to stay warm when surfing at Tropical.
