The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what Turimetta Beach has in store for us over the next couple of weeks.
First up, the water temp's sitting about average for this time of year, so don't expect any surprises when you hit the water.
Honestly, the next week or so is a bit of a struggle. We've got a run of small, choppy days that aren't really offering much. Tuesday the 18th is a write-off with poor, onshore junk. Wednesday the 19th morning shows a brief window of hope with a glassy 3ft ESE swell, but the energy's weak, and it's not exactly going to blow your mind. After that, it's back to tiny waves and onshore crud until the end of the week.
The real standout, the one that gets the blood pumping, is Monday the 31st of August in the morning. Turimetta Beach (beach and reef) is looking at a solid 6ft south swell, and with a period of 11 seconds, it's got some proper energy behind it. The wind is set to be glassy – dead calm. That's the ticket for clean, lined-up waves. This is a solid size for intermediates, and it's the best chance at something memorable. Later that morning the wind swings onshore and the quality drops, so be an early bird.
There's a blip on the 28th of August afternoon that shows a massive 10ft south swell, but it's howling cross-onshore at 15 mph. That's going to be a messy, blown-out wall. That size and wind combo is more interesting for the kite crew than a paddle surfer.
So, to sum it up: don't get your hopes up for the next week and a half. The clear winner is the early session at Turimetta on Monday the 31st of August. Get in, get wet, and get it before the wind ruins it. Long range, that one's a promise worth keeping an eye on.
Rusty.

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