The Lowdown
Alright, let me look at what we've got here for Gleneden Beach. To be honest, right now it's a bit of a quiet stretch. The next week or so is looking pretty tough. We've got a moderate cross-shore wind and some cross-chop hanging around, with the swell mostly small and weak, with a combined energy in the 100s and low 200s. It's not going to be pretty.
Now, the good news is that things might change. Looking way ahead, around Monday the 18th of August, we could see something come together. That Tuesday morning on the 19th is looking like a standout. The winds are forecast to go glassy, with a calm to slight air, which is a massive win for clean conditions. We'd be looking at a consistent 3ft to 4ft swell from the west, with a decent period around 13 seconds. That long-period groundswell will bring some good shape and energy, with combined swell energy climbing into the 400s and 600s. This spot is exposed to the west, so it's a good match. For a spot that’s fairly consistent, this is the one to pencil in. Remember, it's a beach break, so with that longer period it might want to stand up a bit straight, but it's still the best on offer.
The rest of the second week is marginal at best, with onshore winds and smaller energy levels in the mid-100s to mid-300s. There's really nothing else that jumps out for a good surf until that Tuesday.
So, keep an eye on the 19th. It’s a bit far out, but it’s worth waiting for.

A general guide to surfing at Gleneden Beach can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu.

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 Gleneden 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.
