The Lowdown
Alright, let’s talk in feet and miles per hour now.
It’s a mixed bag ahead for Turners Beach. The surf kicks off Tuesday the 8th with some solid energy, but the wind is gonna be a headache for a few days. The real standout is shaping up for Friday the 11th, where everything comes together for a quality session. There’s a big swell mid-week, but the conditions are ugly, so you’ll want to wait for that clean offshore window.
Tuesday, September 8th starts us off, but it’s a write-off. We have 7ft swell from the S, a short 7-second period, and a fresh 30 km/h S wind. That’s just messy. The combined swell energy is moderate (447), but you can’t do much with that wind. The afternoon cleans up with an offshore wind, but it’s still marginal.
Wednesday, September 9th is a tease. The morning is glassy with a light WNW breeze at 5 km/h. The swell drops to 5ft from the SSE, 8-second period, with 350 moderate energy. It’s surfable but very ordinary. The afternoon is a hard no with a cross-off breeze.
Thursday, September 10th brings a big pulse. We’re seeing 10ft of SSE swell, but the period is just 9 seconds. That’s a lot of raw power (strong energy at 1771) and a fresh 30 km/h S wind. Only for experienced surfers. The afternoon has offshore wind, so it’s a bit cleaner, but it’s big and grumpy.
Friday, September 11th. This is your window. Both morning and afternoon have solid 8ft to 8ft swell from the SE and SSE, with a moderate 25 km/h offshore wind from the SSE. The period is 9-10 seconds, giving it some push, and the energy is strong (1381 in the morning, 1032 in the afternoon). Expect very good surf conditions. This is the best on offer.
Saturday, September 12th is still very good, with 7ft to 6ft swell and a steady 20 km/h offshore wind. The energy drops to moderate (587), but the quality remains high.
Sunday, September 13th sees the swell drop to 5ft, with lighter cross-off winds. Good for a longboard, but nothing special.
From Monday the 14th right through to Sunday the 20th, it’s pretty bleak. The swell drops way down and the wind is all over the shop. There’s a tiny bump of 7ft on the 20th, but with onshore wind it’s junk.
We get a tiny flicker on Monday, September 21st, with 4ft swell and a light 15 km/h offshore from the SE, but it’s only ordinary. After that, it’s flat and poor through to the 23rd.
So, the standout is Friday the 11th of September. That’s your day. Saturday the 12th is a great runner-up. The rest is mostly a waiting game.
This is Rusty, signing off.

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.
