Table - best surf conditions forecast for Turimetta Beach over the next 16 days.
G’day, Rusty here. Look, I’ll be straight with you – the next few days are a write-off. We’ve got a solid 5-day gap of barely a ripple and poor conditions from Monday the 13th through to Friday the 17th of July. The swell is tiny, periods are short, and the wind is all wrong. You’re better off waxing your board and waiting. It’s a frustrating start, but hang in there.
The first real sign of life shows up on Saturday the 18th of July, but it’s still weak. We’ve got some 2ft to 3ft S to E swell, period around 8-10 seconds, and the combined energy is only around 158-171 (weak). The wind is cross to cross-on, so it’s a bit messy. Not worth getting excited about.
Now, Sunday the 19th of July is where it starts to get interesting. Turimetta Beach (beach and reef) gets a pulse of 4ft ENE swell at 9 seconds, with the combined energy at 277 (moderate). But the real beauty is the wind – glassy in the morning. Clean, smooth, and inviting. That’s the standout for the first week. It’s only intermediate-level surf, but with the glassy conditions, you’ll get some fun, clean waves. The water temp is about average for this time of year, so no surprises there.
Monday the 20th of July picks up again with a 4ft ENE swell at 10 seconds, combined energy 323 (moderate), and a clean offshore WNW breeze at 6 mph. That’s a solid morning session. The swell is still manageable for intermediates, and the offshore wind will keep it lined up.
Tuesday the 21st of July is another morning option with 4ft ENE swell, 10 seconds, and a light cross-offshore SW wind at 6 mph. Clean, but the wind is a bit side-off, so expect a little texture. Still, a good session.
Wednesday the 22nd of July is a gem – glassy again in the morning with 3ft ENE swell at 10 seconds, combined energy 222 (moderate). That’s clean, smooth, and super inviting. The best of the week if you ask me.
Thursday the 23rd of July has a morning clean-up with 3ft ENE swell at 9 seconds and a light offshore NW breeze. Combined energy 231 (moderate). It’s not big, but it’s clean and fun.
Friday the 24th of July offers a similar story – 3ft ENE swell at 10 seconds, offshore WNW wind at 6 mph, and combined energy 211 (moderate). A clean morning wave.
Saturday the 25th of July is a bit more ordinary – 3ft E swell at 10 seconds, but the wind is offshore and gentle, so the morning is still surfable. Not a standout, but if you’re desperate, it’s there.
Now, the real standout for the whole forecast period is Sunday the 26th of July. That morning and afternoon both deliver 3ft E swell, but the period jumps to 12 seconds – that’s a nice groundswell, and the combined energy is 211-213 (moderate). The wind is cross-offshore in the morning and clean offshore in the afternoon. This is the one to circle on the calendar. Clean, long-period lines that will hold shape nicely at this beach and reef setup. It’s not huge, but it’s quality.
The very end of the run, Monday the 27th and Tuesday the 28th of July, fades out with tiny swell (2ft to 1ft) and strong winds. Not worth it.
Overall, the best bets are Sunday the 19th (glassy), Wednesday the 22nd (glassy), and Sunday the 26th (clean offshore, longer period). The 26th edges it for me – that longer period and offshore wind will make it the pick of the bunch.
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.
