The Lowdown

Alright, Rusty here, let’s talk about what’s coming down the line for this stretch.

Honestly, the first week or so is a bit of a mixed bag. We’ve got a lot of small, weak, or messy days to get through before anything proper shows up. The first real chance of decent surf is Tuesday the 25th, so you’re looking at a few days of flat or poor conditions before that.

Let’s start with the early stuff. Wednesday the 19th kicks off with a small 4ft swell from the ESE, but it’s got a NE cross-on wind blowing at 16 mph, making for poor surf. Water temp is 63°, which is about average for this time of year. Thursday the 20th morning has tiny 2ft waves, but with light cross-off wind, it’s clean – still, not much to get excited about. Friday the 21st morning shows a bit of hope with a light 3ft ENE swell and an offshore NW breeze, keeping it clean, but again, it's weak. From Saturday the 22nd right through to Monday the 24th, we’re in a lull with very small surf – expect a couple of days with barely anything rideable.

Now, the first real standout comes on Tuesday the 25th. The morning brings a 5ft NE swell (moderate energy – 229) with glassy conditions and zero wind. Turimetta Beach will be clean and offering the best surf of the early period. The afternoon holds up too, with 4ft from the ENE and light glassy conditions. This is your best bet for a solid session in the first week. Keep in mind, crowds are possible here, so get in early.

Wednesday the 26th gets blown out by strong 25 mph winds, so don’t bother. Thursday the 27th morning has a cleaner 4ft S swell, but by the afternoon a cross-on breeze spoils it. Friday the 28th morning brings another tidy window with a 3ft S swell and light offshore wind – decent, but not as good as Tuesday.

Looking further ahead, things get big but messy. Sunday the 30th afternoon sees a 10ft S swell (very strong energy – 1885) but with a cross-on wind, it’s going to be choppy. By Monday the 31st, we’re looking at a massive 16ft S swell with a 14-second period – that's a long-period groundswell with very strong energy (15476). But with a consistent 13 mph cross-on wind, it’s going to be a washing machine. The swell is way too big for this break, really only for experts, and even then, the conditions are not ideal.

Into the first days of September, the size drops slowly. Tuesday the 1st still sees 15ft+ swell, still with cross-on wind – not a paddle session. Wednesday the 2nd has 12ft swell, but still messy. By Thursday the 3rd it’s down to 7ft, but the wind is still onshore. Honestly, that last week is more about watching from the beach than getting out there unless you’re a big-wave specialist.

Overall, the clear winner is Tuesday the 25th – get on it. The rest of the window is either too small, too windy, or too big and messy.

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.
