Waterfall Beach: Weather Today

📅 Friday, July 24, 2026
Today at Waterfall Beach is an average day that is likely better suited for a walk along the shore rather than a traditional beach outing. With a maximum air temperature of 17.1 °C and a sea temperature of 18.0 °C, the water is too cold for comfortable swimming. You can expect a mix of sun and clouds throughout the day, though the conditions remain breezy with waves that are quite large and powerful. Given the height of the waves, please exercise caution if you are venturing close to the water, as the surf is choppy and vigorous. While it is dry, the combination of brisk air and restless water makes this more of a day for enjoying the coastal scenery than for sunbathing or taking a dip.
