The Lowdown

Alright, Rusty here. Let’s talk surf for the next couple of weeks at Tuncurry North Wall.

We’re starting off flat or near-flat. From Sunday the 26th of July through to Saturday the 1st of August, it’s mostly tiny swell under 0.5ft. The water temp on Sunday morning is 66°, which is about normal for this time of year. Some clean, glassy mornings, but with nothing to ride, it’s just a nice day for a walk on the beach.

Then on Saturday afternoon the 1st of August, we see a 3ft SE groundswell with a 14-second period and moderate energy (250). The wind is cross-off from the south, keeping the faces clean. It’s not big but it’s well shaped and good for beginners. The break is fairly consistent and exposed, so you’ll get a few.

The best of the first week comes on Monday the 3rd of August morning: 4ft of SE swell, 9-second period, glassy with light WNW breeze. Energy reading is 284 – moderate but solid. Clean, fun, and lined up.

Tuesday the 4th of August morning is also good: 3ft from the ESE, 10-second period, offshore wind from the SW. Energy at 226. Nice and clean for a longboard session.

Then there’s a dry spell until Monday the 10th of August morning. That’s the big one: 7ft from the ESE, 12-second period, glassy with a light NNW breeze. The energy reading jumps to 1186 – strong, powerful groundswell. This is excellent but only for experienced surfers. The afternoon hits 12ft with onshore wind and huge energy (2257). That’s too big and messy for this spot. Stick to the morning if you’ve got the skills.

To sum it up: the first week is mostly flat. The best windows are on the 1st of August afternoon, the 3rd and 4th of August mornings, and the standout is the 10th of August morning – but that one’s for the experienced crew.

Rusty out.

Information about the Tuncurry-North Wall Surf forecast

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