The Lowdown
G’day, Rusty here. It’s been a pretty quiet start for Turimetta Beach, but don’t write the week off just yet. Monday’s a write-off with a messy 7ft ENE windswell under a strong NNW cross-off breeze and rain – combined energy sitting at a moderate 694, but it’s all over the shop. Tuesday morning’s flat and clean but tiny at 2ft, not worth suiting up. Then Tuesday arvo things get interesting – a 6ft southerly groundswell rolls in with a 12-second period and light WNW offshore wind, pushing the combined energy to 962. That’s the best window in the first week: solid, clean, and plenty of push for an intermediate. The water’s sitting at 63°F – about average for the time of year, so no surprises there.
Wednesday morning holds that southerly at 4ft with a 10-second period and clean west offshores – better bet for a peaceful session, as Turimetta can get crowded sometimes. The breeze stays light, conditions are tidy. Thursday bumps up to 6ft south swell but the period drops to 8 seconds, and the wind swings cross-shore and onshore through the day – still surfable for the keen, but not the standout.
Friday morning offers a clean 4ft south swell with light WSW winds and energy at 300 – a decent morning paddle before the onshore ruins it by lunch. Saturday and Sunday are stuffed: small, choppy, and mostly cross-on with rain. That run of poor conditions stretches from Saturday right through to Monday the 19th. It’s a proper gap.
Now here’s the light at the end: Thursday morning, August 20 – glassy, zero wind, a 3ft ESE swell with a 9-second period and combined energy at 221. Clean, small, and perfect for a longboard or a fun board. Then Friday the 21st – glassy again, 5ft from the ENE, period 8 seconds, energy 241. That’s the pick of the second week: glassy conditions, clean small waves, and no crowd hassle. Saturday the 22nd also starts glassy with a 4ft ENE groundswell (10-second period, 339 energy) – another absolute beauty of a morning before the nor’easter messes it up by lunch.
The long-range standouts on the 20th and 22nd are promising, but keep in mind they’re a week and a half away – forecasts can shift. For now, Tuesday arvo the 11th and those glassy mornings in the second week are your real targets.
Rusty out.

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.
