The Lowdown
G’day, I’m Rusty. Let’s talk Turimetta Beach – an exposed beach and reef setup that loves an ESE swell. The water temp is about normal for this time of year, and the early energy is moderate at 283.
First call is Sunday morning, August 30th. Turimetta Beach has a clean 3ft south swell, 9 second period, and dead flat glass – no wind. It’s not big, but it’s clean and the energy sits at 283. Perfect for a Sunday morning.
Monday morning the 31st is another good one – still 3ft from the south, 8 second period, glassy again. Energy is 267. Shorter period, but there’ll be fun ones before the wind switches onshore later.
Tuesday the 1st of September, the morning is tidy with 3ft south swell at 11 seconds, a nice long interval, and a light cross-off breeze keeping it clean. Energy is 258. The afternoon turns proper offshore out of the northwest at 9 mph, with 3ft and those long 11 second gaps. That’s a beautiful window.
Wednesday the 2nd stays clean with offshore wind all day, but the swell drops to 2ft and energy down to 153, so small but clean.
Thursday and Friday are tiny – 2ft to 2ft with energy under 100. Friday morning is glassy at 2ft from the south with an 11 second period, but it’s for longboarders only.
There’s a lull over the first weekend of September. Saturday the 5th is small with too much wind, even if it’s cross-off. Sunday the 6th shows a bit more south swell at 4ft but with onshore wind – messy.
Now the real standout: Thursday the 10th of September. Thursday morning is pumping – 8ft of south swell with 11 second period, and it’s glass calm. The combined energy is huge at 1386. This is serious, for experts only – the reef will be working hard. The afternoon drops to 7ft with cross-onshore, so the morning is your window.
Friday the 11th still has size – 5ft south swell in the morning with cross wind, energy at 490, but conditions are more marginal. The afternoon gets onshore.
The second week fades out with small NE windswell on Sunday the 14th – 4ft, glassy, but short period at 7 seconds and energy only 132. A weak finish.
So, Sunday August 30th morning and Thursday September 10th morning are your two best bets. The Sunday is clean and fun for everyone; the Thursday is a big, powerful swell for the experienced crew. The break can get a crowd sometimes, so be early on those days.
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.
