The Lowdown

Alright, Rusty here with the imperial rundown.

Twilight Beach is the only spot in the 16-day forecast, so we’re focusing on it. Water temp is 63°F, which is right where it should be for this time of year.

The action kicks off Monday morning, July 20th. We’ve got a clean 7ft SSW groundswell, with a 13-second period, and a light offshore breeze from the NNW. The combined energy is strong at 1326, so plenty of power. That’s the top session of the week – clean, solid, and well-shaped.

The wind turns onshore Monday afternoon, and Tuesday stays messy. Wednesday the 22nd sees the swell jump to 10ft, but with a strong onshore wind, it’s a washout. By Wednesday afternoon, it’s 12ft with a 15-second period, and the wind is still onshore. That’s for experts only, and it’ll be a rough one.

Thursday the 23rd holds a big 10ft swell, but a light cross-shore from the east helps a bit. Still a big wave for the experienced. Friday the 24th morning is a welcome relief – 6ft, clean offshore wind from the NNW, and moderate energy (1025). Much more manageable and clean.

Saturday the 25th stays clean with a light offshore in the afternoon, but the swell drops to 4ft, so it’s smaller and more relaxed. Sunday the 26th gets windy, with a fresh breeze, and the swell is down to 3ft. Not much to work with.

There’s a gap for a few days, but the 28th of July shows a 10ft SSW swell with a long 16-second period and a gentle cross-shore wind. That’s a big, powerful groundswell – better suited to a point or reef. The 29th of July morning has a similar 10ft, 17-second swell with a clean cross-offshore wind, but the long period makes it tricky at the beach.

The first week of August drops off hard. From the 31st of July through to the 4th of August, waves are mostly under 3ft, with strong or onshore winds. There’s a brief spike to 5ft on the 3rd of August afternoon, but the wind is fresh and messy.

So, the standout is Monday morning, July 20th – clean, 7ft, offshore wind, and heaps of energy. Friday morning the 24th is a good backup, with smaller, cleaner waves. The big swell mid-week is for experts only, and the last week is mostly flat or blown out.

Get it while you can.

Information about the Twilight Beach Surf forecast

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