Tuncurry Breakwall seasonal overview
Tuncurry Breakwall is a surf spot that primarily receives wind swells, with ground swells being less dominant throughout the year. The best months for surfing here are typically from May to July, when ground swell contribution increases slightly (32% in May and June, 31% in July) compared to other months, and the mean swell size peaks at 1.7-1.8m. Wind conditions during these months are also more favorable, with good wind percentages around 36-37%, though bad winds still prevail (63-64%). Autumn and early winter (April to July) offer the best compromise between swell size and workable winds, while summer months (December to February) see the highest prevalence of wind swells (79-85%) and poor wind conditions (83-84%), making sessions more inconsistent. Overall, surfers should target mid-autumn through mid-winter for the most reliable conditions, keeping in mind that winds are often onshore or cross-shore, requiring patience for ideal sessions. Swell size remains relatively consistent year-round (1.6-1.8m), but quality improves when ground swell mixes in and winds cooperate. Early mornings or late evenings may provide cleaner conditions outside peak wind hours.
