The Lowdown

Right, folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's on the cards for the next couple of weeks.

First off, I gotta be straight with you – this is a tough one. The only spot in the frame is Aileen's, a heavy reef break that's inconsistent and strictly for the experienced crew. The whole 16-day window is a bit of a mess, with a long stretch of pretty ordinary, blown-out conditions. The water temp is about what you'd expect for this time of year, nothing unusual there.

The first real chance of something decent comes on Saturday the 12th. We've got a solid 7ft swell from the west, with a 10-second period, and the combined energy is pumping at 1291 (moderate wave energy). The wind is looking onshore in the morning, but by the afternoon it swings to a light onshore breeze from the west at 9 mph. It's described as a "marginal" call, but it's the best of a bad bunch for the first week. It's still a bit messy, but if you're an expert and you're desperate, that's your window.

The second week gets a bit more interesting, but it's still a gamble. The standout of the whole forecast is Sunday the 20th. There's a big, long-period groundswell from the west-northwest rolling in at 10ft with a 14-second period – that's serious energy, with a combined energy reading of 3134 (strong wave energy). But here's the catch: the wind is forecast to be a cross-onshore breeze. The morning has a light onshore wind from the west-southwest, but it's clean. This is a heavy, powerful swell for experts only, and that long period might make it close out at a beach break, but for a reef like Aileen's, it could be absolutely pumping if the wind plays nice. It's a long-range call, so don't book the week off yet, but it's the one to watch.

After that, the wind goes to shit again with a strong breeze and messy conditions through Monday the 21st and Tuesday the 22nd. The last mention of a "marginal" call is on Wednesday the 23rd, with a 5ft swell from the west, but it's followed by a super long 16-second period at 5ft on the Wednesday afternoon – that's very long period, and with a light onshore wind, it might offer some clean, lined-up waves for the experts.

So, in a nutshell: the first week is a write-off. The only real glimmer is the 20th of September, but it's a big, powerful, and uncertain prospect. For the rest, it's a lot of onshore wind and lumpy, messy surf. For a setup like this, it looks more interesting for a kite surfer than a paddle surfer for most of the period.

Stay safe out there.
Rusty.

Information about the Aileen's Surf forecast

The above surf forecast table for Aileen's provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Aileen's can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Aileen's 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 (Aileen's) 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 Aileen's 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.
