The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s coming down the line for Turimetta Beach.
We’ve got a bit of a slow start to be honest. The surf is tiny and ordinary for the first few days, with nothing worth paddling out for until Friday the 4th of September. That’s when things start to look interesting.
The standout session for the whole outlook is Friday morning, the 4th of September. The swell is 4 ft from the S with a period of 10 seconds, and the wind is glassy – flat calm. That’s a rare treat. The water is sitting at 64°, which is bang on average for this time of year. The combined energy is moderate (394), so there’s enough push to get a few good ones. Turimetta (Sydney) is a beach and reef setup, exposed to the ESE, and the swell is coming from the S, so it’s catching it nicely. It’s fairly consistent, and crowds are possible, so get in early. This is the pick of the bunch.
Monday morning the 7th of September is another decent option. Swell is 4 ft from the S, period 10 seconds, with a cross-off wind from the N at 3 mph. Clean conditions and moderate energy (238). Not as good as Friday, but a solid backup.
Tuesday the 8th of September morning sees a bigger pulse – 8 ft from the S, but the period drops to 9 seconds, and the wind is cross-shore at 9 mph. That’s getting into expert territory size-wise, and the conditions are a bit chopped. The energy is strong (1008), but the quality is marginal. This is one for the experienced crew only.
Thursday the 10th of September afternoon has a very long period groundswell – 8 ft from the SSE at 14 seconds. The energy is very strong (2789), but the wind is cross-onshore from the SSE, making it choppy. Long period groundswells like this tend to be better at points and reefs, not so much at a beach setup. Expect it to be dumping and difficult.
Friday the 11th of September morning is the other real standout. Swell is 7 ft from the S, period 12 seconds, with a light cross-off wind from the WSW at 3 mph. Clean, powerful, and the energy is strong (1103). This is another excellent window for experienced surfers. The 7 ft is a fair step up, so beginners would be out of their depth.
After that, the swell drops away quickly. From Saturday the 12th of September through to the end of the outlook, it’s mostly small, weak, and often choppy. There’s a little bump on Friday the 18th of September, with 2 ft to 2 ft from the S, period 18 seconds, and clean winds. That’s very long period, but tiny. The energy is moderate (251-472). It’s surfable, but nothing to write home about.
Overall, the best on offer is Friday morning the 4th of September for the glassy conditions, and Friday morning the 11th of September for the bigger, clean groundswell. Don’t bother with the rest unless you’re desperate for a paddle.
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.

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.
