G’day, Rusty here. Let’s talk about Turners Beach over the next couple of weeks. It’s a slow start, but there’s a massive pulse comin’ that’ll get your blood pumping.

The water’s sittin’ at about 69°, which is right on the money for this time of year—nothing strange there.

The first real surf shows up on Thursday, July 9th, with a 8ft swell from the southeast and a clean offshore wind. The period’s 10 seconds, so there’s some decent energy, and the combined energy is 1080 (moderate). It’s a bit big for beginners, but for anyone with a bit of stick time, that’s a fun afternoon. Friday morning, July 10th, the swell is 8ft with a cross-offshore wind, still clean, and the energy jumps to 2071 (moderate to strong). Friday afternoon cleans up with a 7ft swell and proper offshore wind—solid. Saturday the 11th gets smaller, around 5ft, with cross-shore wind, so it’s nothing special. Sunday the 12th through the 16th is a total dud—small, weak, messy, or blown out. That’s a stretch of about five days with no good options.

Now, get ready… Friday, July 17th, the south swell lights up. Friday morning is a massive 16ft from the SSE, with a fresh 30 km/h offshore wind—clean but a mission to paddle out. Experts only. Friday afternoon drops to 12ft, still offshore, with an 11-second period, and the energy is 3197 (strong). That’s a proper session for the experienced.

The real standout is Saturday, July 18th. We’re lookin’ at a 20ft groundswell from the south with a 13-second period—that’s a very long period, meaning serious power and long waits between sets. The combined energy is a massive 19150 (very strong). The wind is a moderate offshore, so it’ll be clean. This is exceptional, but it’s for experts only. Sunday the 19th holds at 18ft from the south with a 13-second period, and the wind goes light cross-offshore, making it glassy. Energy is still at 16727 (very strong). Monday the 20th drops to 12ft, with a glassy morning—that’s your best bet for the less experienced, but it’s still a hefty wave.

From Tuesday the 21st, it’s all downhill—back to 6ft and smaller, with the rest of the week taperin’ off into weak, small surf. The final day, Friday the 24th, shows a 5ft pulse with a gentle offshore wind, but it’s nothin’ to get excited about.

So, if you’re an expert, Saturday the 18th and Sunday the 19th are your days. That’s the big, clean groundswell. Everyone else, maybe take a rain check.

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.
