The Lowdown
Alright folks, this is Rusty comin' at you with the outlook for Turners Beach. It's a sheltered little corner, real beginner-friendly, and it breaks very consistently, but we gotta be honest with ourselves here - the next 16 days are a mixed bag, and there's a lot of flat spells to sit through.
The first proper surf worth paddling out for isn't until Monday the 7th. We've got a few weak days before that, but nothing with any punch. Monday morning sees a clean, glassy 3ft wave from the south-southeast, with the swell energy sitting at a moderate 308. It's a clean start, but don't expect much push. Still, for a learner or longboarder, that's a decent window with the wind dead calm.
Tuesday the 8th offers a similar story: a gentle offshore breeze from the south keeping things tidy, with 3ft of south-southeast swell and 139 combined energy. It's rideable, but it’s ordinary - think small, soft lines.
Now, hold onto your boards for Thursday the 10th. We see a jump in size, with 10ft coming in from the south-southeast, but the period is short at 8 seconds and combined energy is screaming at 1136. This is a powerful, lumpy mess for a beach. Friday the 11th is the standout. That's your best bet. A solid 7ft groundswell from the south-southeast with a very long 13-second period, and a moderate offshore wind cleaning it up. Combined energy is 1310 - strong, powerful waves. This is for experienced surfers only. The long period will mean long lulls, but the sets that come through will have serious shape and drive.
Saturday the 12th sees the swell ease to 5ft, still with a long 13-second period, but it's a bit more manageable. The winds stay favorable, with a moderate offshore.
After that, we drop right back into the doldrums. From Sunday the 13th onward, it's small, weak, and mostly blown out on northerly winds through the middle of the week. There's a blip on Friday the 18th - another 7ft pulse from the south, but it's blowing straight onshore from the northwest, making it unsurfable. A real shame.
So, the standout is clear as day: Friday the 11th of September. Get on it if you can handle some size. The rest of the window is mostly small, weak, and waiting.
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.
