The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here again. Let's look at Turimetta Beach in feet and miles per hour.
The first couple of days are a total washout. Wednesday and Thursday have onshore winds and poor-quality surf, so don't bother paddling out. The real deal starts to shape up from Friday morning.
Friday 28 August is where it kicks off. We've got a clean 5ft swell from the SSE, and the wind goes dead calm in the morning. That's a rare gift. The swell energy is solid (667), and for a beach-and-reef setup like Turimetta, that SSE direction is perfect. This is a standout morning for the early birds. The water temp is about normal for the season, nothing weird.
Saturday and Sunday are a mixed bag. Saturday morning has a 5ft SSE swell with light cross-shore wind, but it's not as clean. Sunday morning has a smaller 3ft S swell, but the wind is cross-offshore and it's clean. Not a classic, but you could get a few.
Monday 31 August is another big one. The morning is glassy calm with a 4ft S swell, but the period is 17 seconds – that's a very long period groundswell. The combined energy is 892 (moderate). The waves will be well-shaped, powerful, with long waits between sets. That's a beautiful paddle out. This reef and beach break should handle that long period nicely.
The rest of the first week fades out fast. Tuesday 1 September has clean 4ft to 3ft S swell with offshore and cross-offshore winds, surfable but nothing special. From Wednesday 2 September to Friday 4 September, it drops to under 2ft with very low energy (60-84). That's a real flat spell.
Then we get a bump. Sunday 6 September morning looks promising: a 7ft S swell with clean offshore wind from the NW. The energy is 529 (moderate), and it's clean. That's going to be a bit big for beginners – over 5ft – but for the experienced crew, it's a solid option. The period is short (7 seconds), so it's more wind-swell-like, but the offshore wind will keep it tidy.
The second week drops off again. Monday 7 September has a clean 4ft S swell, but winds shift onshore in the afternoon. Then it gets small and messy from Tuesday 8 September through to Thursday 10 September, with only a spike of 8ft S swell on Thursday 10 September morning, but it's short period and the wind is cross-offshore. It's marginal, but a big clean wave for the experts.
Best bets are Friday 28 August morning and Monday 31 August morning. That long period groundswell on Monday is the one to chase.
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.
