*** Forecast - Our water temperature forecast

Actual near-shore water temperatures in Blueys Beach can vary by several degrees from the values shown, particularly after heavy rain, strong southerlies, or prolonged windy conditions. Certain wind patterns can trigger upwelling, where cooler, deeper water is pushed to the surface and replaces the warmer top layer, leading to noticeable short-term changes in water temperature.

Our water temperature forecast is produced using a proprietary mathematical model that combines real-time measurements with long-term historical patterns, local weather conditions, wind strength and direction, and air temperature specific to each coastal region. To improve accuracy, we cross-check data from nearby locations and use multiple sources, including offshore buoys, satellite-based sea surface maps, and observations provided by local authorities.

Swimming Conditions

Swimming is allowed and popular at Blueys Beach, thanks to its wide sandy shoreline and generally good water quality. The beach is open to the ocean, so conditions can vary depending on swell and wind, and rips may form, particularly after rough weather. During busier periods, parts of the beach are often patrolled, providing safer areas for swimming when conditions are suitable. On calmer days, entry from the sand is straightforward and the water feels clean and refreshing. Confident swimmers enjoy the open-coast feel, while others tend to swim between the flags or choose quieter days to make the most of the conditions.
