The Lowdown
Alright, let’s talk in feet and miles per hour. Rusty here, breaking it down.
First surf shows up Thursday, September 10th. Morning brings a solid 12 ft swell from the SSE, but a fresh 19 mph offshore wind. The energy is pumping hard (1682), but this is big stuff – over 8 ft, so experts only. The period is a short 9 seconds, so it’ll be a bit lumpy. Afternoon drops to 8 ft, 10-second period, still clean with a moderate offshore. Water temp is 68°, right on average for this time. Beginners, stay out of the water Thursday.
Friday the 11th is a bit smaller. Morning sees 7 ft from the SSE, 9-second period, with a 12 mph offshore. Afternoon is 7 ft, 8-second period. Both sessions are clean, but still on the bigger side for a beginner. Rain showers might dampen the mood, but the waves are there.
Saturday the 12th is more friendly. Morning swell is 5 ft from the SE, 8-second period, with a light 6 mph offshore. Clean conditions, moderate energy (297). This is surfable for most. Afternoon is 4 ft, light cross-off wind.
Sunday the 13th, the swell fades. Morning is 4 ft, light cross-off, afternoon drops to 3 ft. Clean but small – grab a longboard.
Then we hit a quiet stretch. From Monday the 14th through Tuesday the 22nd, it’s mostly small and messy. There’s a bump on Wednesday the 16th with 7 ft from the SE, but the wind is cross-off and the period is a short 7 seconds – not great. Thursday the 17th has a glassy morning with 2 ft from the SSE, but the period is a long 12 seconds – groundswell, but tiny. Energy is weak (187).
There’s a pulse on Saturday the 19th with a morning 7 ft from the SSE and a fresh offshore, but period is only 7 seconds. The afternoon shows 5 ft from the SSE with a very long 14-second period and clean cross-off wind. Nice groundswell, but modest size.
Now, the big one. Mark Thursday, September 24th. That morning we get a solid 12 ft swell from the south, 11-second period, and a light 6 mph offshore from the south. The combined energy is massive at 4155 (very strong). This is a serious groundswell with clean conditions – the best of the run for experienced surfers. Turners Beach (Yolla) will see proper sets. The afternoon drops to 7 ft, but the wind swings to a fresh 22 mph cross-off – still clean, but the morning is the money time.
Friday the 25th, the swell fades to 5-6 ft with fresh offshore winds, but energy is moderate.
Best bet: Thursday the 24th morning. The first few days have size for the experienced, then a long quiet spell until that big south swell hits.

Information about the Turners Beach Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Turners Beach provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Turners Beach can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Turners 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 (Turners 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 Turners 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.
