The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s break down what’s happening at Aileen's. I’ll be honest, it’s a waiting game.

First thing, the water temp is about 62°, which is a touch warmer than usual for this time of year. Not a big deal, but nice.

Now, for the main story. The first week and a half is a total dead zone. From the 14th of July through to the morning of the 23rd, it’s all poor surf conditions. The swell is tiny, barely 1 to 2 feet, and the energy is gutless, with combined energy readings in the double digits, like 20 or 30 (67). Not worth the paddle. It’s a real flat spell, so save your wax.

Then, on the morning of the 23rd of July, it’s game on. That’s the standout. We’ve got a solid 5ft swell rolling in from the W, with a period of 13 seconds. That’s a long-period groundswell, and the combined energy jumps right up to a strong 683. The wind is glassy, dead calm, which is a massive plus for a reef like this. It’s going to be clean, pure, and lined up. The catch? Aileen's is inconsistent and only for advanced surfers. But if you’re skilled and pick your moment, that morning is the best on offer. The swell direction is W, and the optimum here is WSW, so it’s close enough to work. Crowds are possible, so get in early.

The morning of the 24th of July is also a decent option. We’ve got a 4ft W swell, period of 11 seconds, and a light cross-offshore breeze from the NE. Combined energy is a moderate 426. It’s clean, but not as punchy as the day before.

Later, on the morning of the 27th of July, we see another pulse. A 5ft swell from the W, but with a shorter period of 9 seconds and glassy wind. Combined energy is 407. It’s surfable, but that size is getting into expert-only territory for a reef, and the shorter period means it won’t have the same grunt as the 23rd. The wind is glassy, which is a win, but the afternoon gets messy.

Overall, the 23rd of July morning is the clear winner. Everything else is either flat, choppy, or too wind-affected. Keep your eyes on that date.

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.
