Alright, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on the table for Aileen’s over the next couple of weeks. I’ll be straight with you – man, it’s a tough stretch.
Right out of the gate, a bit of a bummer: there’s no real surf to get excited about until Friday the 10th of July. After that, it’s a long, lean run, with another big gap from Saturday the 11th all the way through to Wednesday the 22nd of July before we see a tiny blip.
The main event, such as it is, is a very small window. Friday morning the 10th of July is the only time it’s even worth looking at the ocean. We’ve got a tiny 2ft swell from the WNW with a period of 11 seconds. That’s a bit of groundswell, which can make for some cleaner lines, but with only 2ft on offer, it’s not going to be a big day. The water’s sitting at 61°F and the anomaly of 2° above average means it’s a touch warmer than normal, which is nice for this spot. The wind is a light cross-offshore from the North at 10 mph, so it should be clean. The combined wave energy is weak, sitting at only 205. It’s a surface bump, not a real push. This is the only real standout of the whole outlook, and it’s a tiny one.
After that, it’s a ghost town. From Saturday the 11th onward, the swell drops way off – we’re talking 0.7ft, 1ft, and a day with 1ft and glassy wind on Wednesday the 15th of July. But don’t get excited; the energy numbers are in the teens and thirties. There’s just no power. The break is inconsistent and exposed, but there’s nothing to expose it to.
Finally, on Wednesday the 22nd of July, we see a tiny pulse. A 3ft swell from the west with an 8-second period (short period, sloppy) and weak combined energy of 99. The wind is onshore from the west at 10 mph. It’s still listed as poor surf conditions, and it’s over a week and a half away, so don’t bank on it.
Honestly, if you were hoping for a proper session at Aileen’s, this 16-day outlook is a dry spell. The only real glimmer is that Friday morning, the 10th of July.
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.
