The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s break it down.
We’ve got a pretty average run for a while, with a lot of small, ordinary days and some clean windows. The best bet is further out, but there’s a definite peak to aim for.
The water temperature’s at 63°F at Turimetta Beach, which is just a touch cooler than the long-term average for this time of year.
For the first week, nothing’s getting the heart rate up. Thursday the 6th through to Sunday the 10th are all pretty flat or poor. We have small waves, mostly under 3ft, and a lot of messy wind. The combined energy is weak, mostly between 76 and 182, which tells you it’s not really working. Monday the 10th morning has some stronger offshore breezes at 25 mph and a bit more size at 5ft with 395 combined energy, but that’s going to be super hard to paddle into—a real fight.
Tuesday the 11th morning is better. We’ve got a clean 4ft swell from the S (combined energy 283) with light offshore wind from the WNW. That’s the first decent window, but it’s still fairly average in size.
Then it flattens out again from the 12th to the 13th with tiny, poor conditions.
Now, the real standout. Saturday the 15th morning is your date. The combined swell energy jumps to 659. That’s solid, moderate energy. Swell is 6ft from the S (period 10 seconds), and there’s a light SW cross-offshore breeze. That’s clean, there’s push, and it’s the best-looking setup in the entire 16-day window. This one is worth waking up for. Break is Turimetta Beach, a beach and reef setup that’s fairly consistent. The swell direction is more S than the ideal ESE, but the quality of the swell and the wind should make it fun. Keep an eye on the crowds, because this spot can get busy when it’s good.
After that, the 16th and 17th are messy again with rain and strong cross-shore winds. The 20th and 21st mornings show a return to cleaner conditions with lighter wind (W and WSW), but the swell is smaller and the energy is lower—209 and 339 respectively, so more of a cruisy end to the run.
No big groundswell events, so no worries about long period waves breaking straight. The S swell is a short to moderate period, which will work fine on this exposed beach setup.
Alright, that’s the picture. Get ready for the 15th.

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.
