The Lowdown
G'day, Rusty here, and I've got the goods on what's coming up for our local patch. There's a bit of a slow start, but we've got some real gems hiding in this 16-day window if you're patient.
The first few days are a write-off, honestly. Thursday afternoon kicks off with a tiny 2ft south swell, and the wind is all wrong. It's not worth paddling out for. But hold tight, because the real story starts on Friday morning.
Get your best board ready for Friday, 4th September, early. Turimetta Beach is going to be firing. We've got a clean 5ft south swell, with glassy, offshore conditions from the WNW. The water’s sitting at 64°, which is pretty much bang on average for this time of year. The combined energy is moderate (518), and the swell direction is a perfect match for what this spot loves. It's a solid, fun wave for an intermediate, and the consistent nature of the break means you'll get plenty of waves. Keep in mind, it can get a bit busy here sometimes.
Saturday and Sunday are small and messy, with winds that just won't play ball. The swell drops right off, and the energy is weak. Not worth your time.
Things start to look up again on Monday morning, 7th September. We're looking at a 4ft south swell with a light cross-off breeze from the NNW keeping things clean. The combined energy is moderate (240). It's a decent option if you're keen, but it's not the standout.
Now, here's the big one that's got me a little excited. Friday morning, 11th September. This is the pick of the whole forecast. Turimetta Beach is looking at a 7ft south swell, with a light cross-off breeze from the SW. The combined energy is strong (1146), and that swell period is a solid 11 seconds, which is proper groundswell. This is a wave for experienced surfers only—it'll be powerful and punching. The wind is light, so conditions will be clean. This is the session to circle on the calendar.
The weekend after that drops back down, with the swell fading and the wind turning onshore. There's a brief moment on the 14th with a clean 2ft south swell, but the energy is low.
The tail end of the forecast has a couple of interesting bits. Thursday morning, 17th September, there's a 6ft swell from the SSE with a fresh offshore wind, but the period is short at 6 seconds, so it'll be a bit lumpy. And then Thursday afternoon, 17th September, we get a wildcard: a 2ft swell from the south with a very long period of 17 seconds. That's some serious energy (409) for a small wave, and it'll be clean with a fresh offshore. This is a long-range call, so don't book your flights yet, but it's a promising note to end on.
So, to sum it up: Friday morning, 4th September, is your best bet for clean, fun waves. And Friday morning, 11th September, is the big dog for the experienced crew. The rest is mostly small or windy.
Stay salty,
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 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.
