Table - best surf conditions forecast for Tuncurry-North Wall over the next 16 days.
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s see what this next stretch has in store for us at Tuncurry-North Wall.
Right off the bat, we’ve got a pretty quiet start. The first few days are looking flat and not worth the drive. Sunday the 12th has a tiny 3ft swell, but it's messy, and Monday and Tuesday are basically flat with no energy to speak of. You’re looking at a real dry spell through to Wednesday and Thursday morning as well. The action doesn't start to stir until Thursday afternoon when a 5ft swell turns up, but conditions are only marginal.
Now, here's where it gets interesting. Friday the 17th is the first real standout. We've got a solid 8ft swell grinding in from the SE with a 9-second period. The combined energy is reading a strong 890 (moderate to strong), and with a light offshore wind forecast for the afternoon, it’s going to be clean. This is proper surf.
The real gem, though, is Saturday the 18th. This is the pick of the bunch. The swell holds at a thumping 8ft from the ESE, and the period stretches to 10-11 seconds. The combined energy jumps to a very strong 1365 to 1630. This is big, powerful stuff – definitely for experienced surfers only. The wind is light, keeping the surface clean. This is the one to circle on the calendar.
Looking further ahead, the good news keeps rolling. Monday the 20th brings a slightly smaller 7ft swell, but the wind goes glassy in the afternoon. That’ll be smooth as silk. Then Tuesday the 21st looks like another expert-level day, with the swell back up to 8ft and a long 12-second period, with clean offshore winds. The energy is very strong at 1711.
After that, things ease off gradually. Wednesday and Thursday the 23rd still have clean, surfable waves around the 4ft to 6ft mark, but the quality drops off towards the end of the period. By the second weekend, we're back to tiny, weak waves again.
So, to sum it up: get through the first flat few days, and then from Thursday onwards it’s game on. The standout sessions are Saturday the 18th and Tuesday the 21st for the experienced crew, with Friday the 17th and Monday the 20th offering excellent conditions for a wider range of surfers.
Stay salty,
Rusty
