Alright, Rusty here again. Let's talk in feet and miles per hour.
Look, I gotta level with you. The surf forecast is playing a bit of a waiting game. We've got a solid slug of swell on the way for Turners Beach, but for the next few days, it's flat and boring. A real dry spell.
The big moment arrives on Monday morning, July 6th. We're looking at a heavy 10-foot swell from the SSE, and the raw energy is reading a massive 1579, which is a lot of power. The wind is offshore from the south, keeping it glassy. This break is sheltered, so it'll handle the size, but at 10-foot, this is strictly for the big-wave crew. The period is 9 seconds, so it's not a classic groundswell, but with that energy and clean conditions, it's going to be a wild ride.
Tuesday, July 7th, the swell pushes up even more, hitting 12 feet from the SSE with a longer 11-second period. The energy reading is a monstrous 2852. The wind is cross-offshore from the south, so it's still clean, but it's going to be a real battle.
Wednesday, July 8th, is a sweet spot. We've got a 10-foot swell from the SE at 11 seconds, but the wind is a solid offshore from the south. The energy is still pumping between 2266 and 2535. This is primo, big-wave territory.
Thankfully, things mellow out by Thursday and Friday, July 9th and 10th. The swell drops to 7-6 feet, the wind stays offshore, and the energy settles to a moderate level. This brings it into a more manageable size for a lot of folks. The water temp is normal for the time of year, nothing to write home about.
Then we hit a flat spell. From Saturday, July 11th, all the way through to mid-week, it's small, choppy, and messy with onshore winds. A real bummer.
We do have a couple of long-range whispers, though. On Thursday, July 16th, there's a 8-foot S swell forecast, but it comes with strong wind. Then on Friday, July 17th, another 8-foot S swell shows up with a similar energy reading of 2091; with moderate cross-offshore wind, it could be clean for the locals. But that's a long way out, so don't count your chickens.
So, bottom line: Turners has some serious firepower early next week, but it’s for the experienced. After that, we're waiting on the next pulse. Keep your eyes on the charts.
Rusty.

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.
