Right then, let’s take a look at what’s happening for Turtle Cove. To be honest mate, the next couple of weeks are looking pretty grim. The swell is tiny and the wind is a mess for most of it. We’ve got a long flat spell coming up, and it’s not until well into the second week that things finally get a bit more interesting.
The first real chance at anything worth paddling out for is on Friday, July 11. We’ve got a moderate offshore wind from the W at 16 mph and a 3 ft swell from the SSW. The energy is weak, only pushing 98. It’s not big, but it’s clean. Saturday, July 12 morning is a slightly better call, with a gentle offshore breeze from the W at 9 mph and a 3 ft south swell. The energy is moderate at 154. Still nothing special, but at least it’s surfable and the conditions are tidy. That’s your best window for a quiet, low-key session.
Then comes Monday, July 13 afternoon. This is the standout. The swell bumps up to 5 ft from the SSW, with a moderate 9-second period. The energy jumps to 315 – that’s moderate to strong energy for this spot. The wind is clean, a cross-off from the SSW at 12 mph. This is the biggest and most powerful swell in the whole outlook. But, it’s a reef and point break, and with that size and a shorter period, it might not be lining up perfectly. Still, this is the one to keep an eye on, the best on offer across the entire 16 days.
Tuesday, July 14 morning is glassy, with a slight air and no wind to speak of. The swell drops back to 3 ft from the SSW, period of 8 seconds, and the energy is moderate at 120. It’s a clean, user-friendly morning but nothing to write home about.
And that’s about it. The rest of the period is either flat, choppy, or blown out. There’s a long stretch from the start all the way through to the 11th with no decent windows. After the 14th, it fades away again into small, weak surf with poor wind.
Overall, wait for that Monday afternoon on the 13th for the best chance of a proper wave. It won’t be perfect, but it’s the most juice we’ll see.

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.
