The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s get into it.
First off, the only game in town for the next 16 days is Twilight Beach. So, here’s how it’s looking.
We’ve got a solid run of south-southwest swell coming through to start, but it’s messy. The surf is already up to 10 ft on Wednesday the 22nd, but the wind is a cross-on or onshore breeze at 12 mph, so it’s choppy and not great. The water temp is sitting at 62°, which is about average for this time of year, nothing crazy.
The real standout for quality comes on Friday the 24th, morning session. The swell drops to a much more manageable 6 ft from the SSW, and the wind swings around to a light northerly breeze at 6 mph, blowing offshore. That’s going to clean things right up. The combined swell energy is strong at 1127, but it’s a clean, fun size. This is your best early call.
Saturday the 25th still looks clean with offshore winds all day, but the swell is smaller, around 4 ft to 5 ft. The energy is dropping to 541, so it’s a smaller, weaker day. Still fun for a longboard, but not the highlight.
There’s a big gap of poor conditions from Sunday the 26th through to Tuesday the 29th. Strong winds, big bumpy swell, and rain. On Sunday the 26th, the wind is howling at 25 mph offshore, which makes the 4 ft swell clean but nearly impossible to paddle into. Monday the 27th sees a massive 10 ft swell but with strong cross-on winds, just a total mess.
Things get interesting again on Wednesday the 29th morning. The swell is 6 ft from the SSW, combined energy is 1702, and the wind is a light cross-offshore breeze from the ENE at 9 mph. That’s clean and powerful. This is a solid option for intermediate surfers.
The next big standout is Friday the 31st. We’ve got a 7 ft to 8 ft SSW groundswell, with a very long period of 16 seconds. The wind is offshore or cross-offshore, clean. The combined energy is strong, at 2558. This is big, powerful, and clean. It’s getting into expert territory at over 8 ft, so only for the experienced crew. Expect crowds at Twilight Beach, as it’s a fairly exposed spot that can get busy.
After that, the first week of August looks a bit all over the place. Saturday the 1st and Sunday the 2nd have some size but get messy with strong cross-on winds. The very end of the forecast, on Thursday the 6th of August morning, might offer a tiny, clean knee-high wave at 3 ft with a light offshore breeze, but it’s a long way off and the period is short, so don’t get your hopes up.
Stay safe out there.

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.
