Turimetta Beach Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright, let’s get into it. Things have been a bit messy around here, but there’s some real promise on the horizon.

The week starts off rough. Thursday the 16th is a write-off with a solid 8ft south swell but a stiff 30 km/h cross-on southerly making a mess of things. The combined energy is moderate at 743, but it’s just not worth it unless you’re into a lumpy, wind-affected session. Friday the 17th morning shows a tiny 3ft south-southeast swell, but the wind goes glassy, making it clean. Still, it’s small and weak, so it’s a limp start.

The real standout is the morning of Monday the 20th. That’s when we get a clean 6ft east-northeast swell with a 10-second period, and the wind is light offshore from the west-northwest. The combined energy is strong at 788, and the conditions are described as very good. This is the session to aim for at Turimetta Beach – it’s got size, it’s clean, and the offshore wind will hold it open. The water temp is about 64°, which is pretty normal for this time of year, so no surprises there.

Tuesday the 21st morning is also a beauty – glassy conditions with a 5ft east-northeast swell and a 10-second period. The energy is moderate at 528, but with zero wind, it’ll be smooth and lined up. That’s a close second to Monday.

After that, it drops off. Wednesday the 22nd morning has a clean 4ft swell with offshore wind, and Thursday the 23rd has a tiny 3ft swell but offshore winds both morning and afternoon. It’s surfable but small.

Then there’s a gap of a few days with very little on offer. Friday the 24th afternoon throws a big 8ft south swell back in, but it’s a messy cross-on with only an 11-second period. The energy is very strong at 2883, but for a beach and reef setup like this, it’s going to be a washing machine. More for the kite crew than a good paddle session.

The next real bright spot is the morning of Thursday the 30th. A clean 6ft south swell with a 9-second period, light cross-off wind, and the energy is strong at 581. The conditions are described as very good again. That’s a solid mid-week option.

And then, the morning of Friday the 31st is a potential standout – a 6ft south swell, 8-second period, but glassy conditions with a light north wind. The energy is strong at 649. If the wind holds, that could be a clean, punchy session. It’s a week and a half away, so keep an eye on it.

Overall, the best bet is the Monday morning of the 20th, with Tuesday morning the 21st as a close second. The rest is a mix of small clean windows and bigger wind-affected swells. Stay patient.
