The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's on the menu for Turners Beach over the next couple of weeks.
Right off the bat, we've got a bit of a slow start. The surf is small and pretty ordinary through the first few days. Friday the 24th kicks off with a tiny 3ft ENE windswell, but it's clean with a moderate offshore breeze. The water temp is sitting at 68°, which is pretty much normal for this time of year.
The real story here is the second week. We're looking at a major pulse of energy arriving around Sunday the 2nd of August, and it builds into something special. The standout is Monday the 3rd of August. That morning you're looking at solid 12ft SSE swell with a period of 9 seconds, and the wind is screaming offshore from the south. The combined energy is massive (1915), and it's packing serious punch. This is big, powerful surf. Over 8ft, so it's strictly for experts. The afternoon stays just as good, with the same size and clean offshore conditions.
The action keeps rolling through the week. The 6th of August, Thursday afternoon, delivers an 8ft SE swell with a long 11-second period, and the combined energy is a whopping 2097. The wind is offshore again, making for excellent conditions for experienced surfers. Even the 7th of August, Friday, keeps the quality high with an 8ft ESE groundswell and a very long 14-second period, though the wind is cross-offshore in the morning.
The first week is a bit of a write-off, but from the 2nd of August onward, it's game on. Just remember, this is a big-wave period for the experienced crew only. The crowds at Turners Beach can be a thing sometimes, so get in early.
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.
