Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s take a look at what’s cooking for Turtle Cove over the next couple weeks. Gotta be honest, it’s a pretty quiet stretch. The first week is a write-off with poor conditions – strong winds and messy surf. The first chance of anything even remotely surfable doesn’t come till Tuesday July 14th, and even then it’s nothing to call home about. There’s another lull from Wednesday the 15th through Friday the 17th where it’s either flat or choppy. So the real window is the final few days.

Tuesday morning July 14th gives us swell about 2ft from the ESE, with a short period of 7 seconds. Combined swell energy is weak at 61. Winds are light from the WNW, clean and cross-off. It’s surfable, but it’s small and pretty average.

Next up, Saturday morning July 18th: swell bumps up to around 3ft from the SSE, period 8 seconds. Combined energy is moderate at 158. Winds are light from the SW, cross-off and clean. Still just ordinary.

The one and only standout is Monday morning July 20th. We’ve got clean 3ft swell from the south, period 8 seconds. Combined energy is 196, so there’s some decent push. But the real treat is the glassy wind – dead calm from the NW at only 3 mph. That’s going to give you smooth, clean lines at Turtle Cove. The swell’s a bit off the ideal SE direction, but with those conditions, it’s your best bet by far.

So yeah, it’s a lean forecast. Nothing too big for beginners, but nothing epic either. That Monday morning glass-off is the only real highlight. After that, Tuesday the 21st gets messy again with onshore winds. Water temp is about normal for this time of year. Hang tight, and I’ll keep an eye on it.

Rusty.

Information about the Turtle Cove Surf forecast

The above surf forecast table for Turtle Cove provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Turtle Cove can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Turtle Cove 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 (Turtle Cove) 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 Turtle Cove 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.

Turtle Cove is 34 km (21 miles) from Westerly. If you plan a vacation in Long Island New York, look for hotels and other accommodation in Westerly. Westerly has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
