The Lowdown
G’day, Rusty here. Look, I’ll be straight with you – the next week or so is pretty quiet for Turimetta Beach. We’ve got a long stretch of small, weak surf and mostly ordinary conditions before a proper pulse of energy shows up around the second week. Hang tight, because there’s a couple of standouts worth circling on the calendar.
Right now, Tuesday afternoon, it’s glassy with a tiny 0.7 ft SSE swell, but the energy is almost nothing (17). It’s a write-off for a proper surf. Wednesday and Thursday stay small, with the best being Thursday morning when a 3 ft S swell (132) rolls in with clean conditions from a light W cross-off. It’s surfable but very ordinary. Friday through to the following Tuesday morning are all similar – small waves, mostly under 3 ft, with clean windows but nothing to get excited about. The combined energy stays below 200 for most of this period, so it’s a real flat spell.
The first real standout hits on Thursday, August 13th. Wednesday morning, August 13th, kicks off with a solid 6 ft S swell (540) and a clean W offshore – that’s proper groundswell energy, though the period is short at 8 seconds. But the real gem is Friday morning, August 14th. That’s the pick of the outlook. We’ve got a 8 ft S swell (1506) hitting with a WSW cross-off. That’s a big, powerful swell – expert territory only, with strong energy. The wind is light and clean, making for excellent conditions for experienced surfers. The swell direction from the south is a good match for the optimum ESE guidance, so expect some well-shaped waves.
After that, Saturday the 15th drops off quickly with a messy 4 ft S swell and onshore winds. Sunday and Monday offer small, weak options again. The next notable window is Wednesday morning, August 19th, with a 7 ft SE swell (877) and a clean NNW cross-off. That’s a solid, high-energy pulse with good shape, but again, it’s a big swell – experts only. Crowds are sometimes an issue at Turimetta, so keep that in mind.
Water temperature is sitting at 64°F, which is about 0.9°F below normal – pretty average for this time of year, nothing unusual.
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.
